Real full-member feedback – here’s what others are saying about the Teacher Learning Community…
“I have thoroughly enjoyed my membership to Simplek12 and the Teacher Learning Community! My favorite thing to do is attend live webinars, but I am not always able to during my work day. Fortunately I don’t miss anything because by being a member I have full access to those webinars as they are saved and available through the Community! I have found so many COOL web 2.0 tools to be used both in and outside ( fun at home too) the classroom! The Teacher Learning Community – in my opinion- IS A GOLDMINE! There are so many resources available I often find more than I hoped to and have to stop back to continue at another time. In my ten years in education I have never spent so much time learning on summer break as I did this summer – because it is FUN with SimpleK12!! A big thank you to the girls in the blue bunny slippers who are always friendly, fun and knowledgeable! I am your biggest fan!”

“I came across this community via Twitter, attended a free webinar and was hooked from that point. I saw the bunny slippers and thought the learning community focused on preschool to primary grades, but to my surprise it was MUCH MORE. Behind the bunny slipper portal was a world of educational technology resources, webinars, and exceptional individuals that assist teachers Pre-K to High School. SimpleK12 has been instrumental in enhancing my teaching practices. I highly recommended making this your No. 1 professional development resource.”

“To say I am a supporter, is a big understatement. I believe that there is something for every learner from technophobic to the power user. This allows for collaboration that is lots of fun to share with your local teams. The shared resource area has everything for every grade and subject. The ability to contact the sharer allows you to do even more collaboration. I knew from the first time I saw the site that it was going to work. I knew that it was going to be well worth the money I was spending for it. I love that you can watch the webinars, explore the resources or complete the lessons while being at home in your pj’s or during your conference periods. I love Simple K12 so much that I got my district to purchase it this year too!!! It is a great training tool and a wonderful resource. Go Blue bunny!!”

“I don’t remember how I happened across this site, but I am so happy I did! I have spent hours upon hours learning from the Community. I have to say that I was a little reluctant to become a full member because of the cost, but I have not once regretted my decision. There is so much here to learn from. The connections you can make with other members provides many collaborative opportunities. I once said that it’s like being a mouse in cheese heaven! So much to do, so fun to be involved. Try it out!”

“The [Teacher Learning Community] is absolutely the best investment that I have made toward my professional development. The topics are relevant and new. I have enjoyed watching webinars live and on demand whenever I have the time at any hour of the day. I have learned so much with the Learning classes and sharing resources. I would not be without my full membership. There is so much to learn and so many resources all in one place. It is absolutely fantastic and the best money that I have ever spent!!!”
