The Canadian eLearning Network (CANeLearn http://canelearn.net) is a newly registered Canadian federal not-for-profit society. CANeLearn's mission is to provide leadership that champions student success in K-12 online and blended learning. It provides members with networking, collaboration and research opportunities.
The organization is in its infancy and is looking to strengthen its network through affiliations with other Canadian-based organizations, and we see an important fit between CANeLearn and CNIE. With a specific focus on the K-12 sector, and technology-supported education in both online and blended learning environments, CANeLearn shares similar goals and brings with it a growing network of K-12 online and technology-oriented educators and leaders within school programs.
This session will provide delegates with an overview of CANeLearn and invite conversation into how the new network can work with partners in K-12 and post-secondary in supporting online and blended learning. Examples of projects CANeLearn members are taking a lead in through its Centre for Innovation will be discussed, and delegates be invited to share in research and initiatives underway or under consideration.
