The opening sessions of this year’s CEM once again feature a
terrific lineup of thought leaders and influencers, including panels
covering each of the key themes for the month and including a couple of new events, a special kick-off event with Secretary Duncan, a CEM opening celebration and a CEM town hall. Registration is not required, but you can sign up for all of them here,
which will get you a reminder the day before each event, and a link to
archives afterwards, in case you can’t attend in person.
But we really hope you’ll be able to come, because this isn’t going to be your typical ‘sit and get’ webinar–because CEM is about community, our events are highly interactive and participatory; watching a recording won’t be the same as the opportunity to be there, mixing it up with the panelists, really being heard, and getting your questions answered.

Secretary of Education Arne Duncan will kick off Connected Educators Month with an “EduAllStars” Podcast, where he will highlight President Obama’s ConnectED proposal to expand access to high-speed broadband to 99 percent of students and how education can be strengthened when teachers are provided opportunities to connect with their colleagues around the country.
Connected Leadership, October 1, 3:00-4:30 PM ET. What is connected leadership, why is it important, what are some simple steps leaders can take to get more connected, and what does the future hold? A highly participatory discussion featuring Candice Dodson, Valerie Greenhill, and Chris Lehmann, Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach facilitating.

CEM Opening Celebration/Gala, October 1, 7:00-8:30 PM ET. An opportunity for CEM participants to meet, greet, and reunite. We’ll be providing an overview of the month’s programming, highlighting what’s new and different from CEM 2012, introducing key members of the team, sharing stories of connection (to create a resource to share with the less connected), a few surprises, games, and enjoying all the fruits of being connected…
Innovating STEM and Literacy, October 1, 9-10:30 PM ET.

CEM Town Hall, October 2, 3-4:30 PM ET. We’ll all be sharing plans for the month, seeking (additional) partners and collaborators, discussing how we’re collectively going to get the word out, make things happen (a lot of innovation and co-construction happens during CEM), and lay the groundwork to insure the momentum for connected education continues beyond October 31. Questions will be welcome, as will discussions on any topic, and even (more) new ideas…
