= Thing 33 - Educator's Learning Network (ELN) =

= = =** Introduction **= Educator's Learning Network (ELN) is a network that's been around for school leaders, requiring membership to view content. Recently, the Illinois Principal Association partnered with ELN to provide free access to ELN for all school leaders. This year, IPA has gone a step further and partnered with ISBE to bring the ELN resources to all school professionals for free. Every teacher now has access to 100's of curated resources. ELN also provides a platform for school districts to create and submit their own content. While there is limited content at this time, ELN has plans to grow, so keep an eye on it. They may be a winner if they can leave behind their PDFs and Powerpoints in favor of Google or some other collaborative tools.
