MCH is pleased to announce its partnership with edWeb, a free networking and collaboration website for educators that:

• helps educators share resources and collaborate with colleagues anytime, anywhere
• allows teachers and administrators to share best practices and information on what's working
• enables schools and districts to work collaboratively to implement new programs and school reforms and 
• helps educators develop 21st century skills and introduces the benefits of social networking

The edWeb addresses the need expressed by many leaders and policy groups for online learning communities that can provide sustainable professional development opportunities for teachers. The edWeb is open to educators at all levels and in all types of educational settings, but the initial focus is on growing the K-12 market where the need for collaboration and educational reform is greatest.

Peter Long, MCH CEO, said “Social networking is becoming an integral part of personal and professional communications. We believe the edWeb will be an important vehicle to help education professionals connect and support each other as we implement the changes needed to improve education in the U.S. MCH wanted to be in on this from the ground level.”

Lisa Schmucki, founder of the edWeb, said, “I am delighted to be working with MCH to grow the edWeb. Our mission is to create an online community where all the constituents in education...individual educators, schools, colleges, associations, and education companies...can come together to drive change and improvement in education."
