THIS MONTH we congratulate Joannie Maitoza for winning the Teachers Talk! Contest. Read the fabulous winning entry below!

How have I not used this site! It has been invaluable to me in so many ways. For instance...when I was hired for this position, I used my books from when I attended FIDM. Then I went to FIDM’s website and started with the entrance application projects for each major and used those as a base from which to begin each subject.

Then I used and have used the presentations as a great tool to add "icing on the cake" for various subjects. I use the site to know when the FIDM Open House is, "What’s New" to download many, if not all, of the projects and activities and use them along with what I have already created.

In essence, the Just for Educators site has helped reinforce what I am already doing so that I know I am always going in the right direction in guiding my learners with the necessary skills and tools to go the next step of their career education.

I am biased, of course, being an alum. I look at the site almost weekly to make sure I haven’t overlooked anything to share with my learners!
