It’s time to renew your membership! TWICE memberships are same as last year, just $200. TWICE – Two Way Interactive Connections in Education was created through the efforts of many ISD/RESA coordinators across the state and is endorsed by the MAISA Technology Committee. When an ISD/RESA joins, all the local districts and schools served by that ISD/RESA are members as well and are able to take advantage of all the benefits provided by TWICE.
As a TWICE member, your ISD/RESA and the districts you serve can enjoy such benefits as:
- An extensive database of virtual Field Trip programs that correlate with curriculum standards and discounted prices for videoconference programs from COSI Toledo and COSI Columbus (the Centers of Science and Industry), Cleveland Institute of Music, the Cleveland Museum of Art and Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota, Florida.
- Coordination, support, and design of collaborative classroom-to-classroom Projects, like “Read Around the Planet” (formerly known as Read Across America) “Project ASK,” and “Michigan Week Connections.”
- CAP – Collaborations Around the Planet is a new social networking tool for educational videoconferencing that was launched this fall.
- Two-way interactive video Technical Support and information.
- Resources for schools interested in Shared Classes
- Coordination, sharing, and promotion of Professional Development programs and workshops for teachers and staff.
- A listserv connecting you to others interested in videoconferencing programs and collaborative opportunities.
- A new blog to share information with TWICE members on videoconferencing projects, articles, and experiences.
Visit our web page for information about all our activities and other videoconferencing resources.
We hope your ISD/RESA will renew its membership to TWICE and help us carry out our mission “to promote and support collaborative connections using two-way interactive video for the benefit of Michigan students.” To join, just fill in this membership form and send it along with your check to the address at the bottom of the form.
