It is with great pride that I add another badge to my evergrowing sidebar here on the blog. This past week, I was recognized as a MIE Fellow for 2019/2020. This is very exciting because while I submitted my application last month, I didn't accept to actually receive the honor of leading my fellow MIE Experts. Cohort 9 (PA, VA, WV, and NC) has such amazing educators that I assumed one or two of them would be selected. Each cohort has between two and three fellows to lead the region's MIE Experts. This year, I am joining the two fellows from last year to become a team of three. As a MIE Fellow, I have been invited to the US MIE Expert & Showcase School Leader Summit in Redmond, WA this January. If you are unaware, that's the home of Microsoft's headquarters. I can't wait to see what this year as a Fellow brings. I have already reached out to my fellow Fellows to see about organizing some professional developments and events.
Becoming a fellow has also motivated me to organize a potential panel for ISTE 2020. I have also reached out to the MIE Expert and Google for Education Certified Innovators to create a panel called "Best of Both Worlds" which has so far had amazing feedback. I didn't even realize how many of us are involved with both programs.
