FYI…
As part of an IDEAL-NM kickoff event to celebrate partnerships with schools statewide, it was announced this Monday, August 12th, 2008 that every public high school in New Mexico is eligible for a free IDEAL-NM course for the inaugural term (Fall 2008).
The courses are led by New Mexico eTeachers that are highly qualified in both subject area and online methodologies and will work closely with in-school academic mentors. The courses are newly developed by NM teachers/developers and, will maintain low teacher-student ratios. IDEAL-NM has a commitment from the inaugural term forward to work with REC and school partners to continually improve the process and outcomes of this bold program for New Mexico.
For more information about available courses or how school councilors register students for IDEAL-NM courses visit www.ideal-nm.org <http://www.ideal-nm.org> .
Attached is a press release about the grand opening event at one high school. Also you might be interested a video on youtube… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6D1R4kVPGE

With so many good teachers out there, it's fortunate they can share their
knowledge via video on the Internet. From the funny to the poignant, these
glimpses into the lives of teachers and their students will keep you
entertained while learning a little something as well. Whether you are a new
teacher storing up tips and tricks or an experienced teacher who could just
use a fresh perspective, you are sure to find something helpful among these
