Why would a principal need to do this? Globally, it is to our advantage to make as many connections as possible. By connecting with the world you create opportunities to learn.

George Seimens states in his American Society for Training and Development (ASTD) article. Posted by Ryan Gallwitz.

What is in the best interest of the students whom I serve?
