Technology Excellence in Education Network

Technology Excellence in Education Network (TEEN) was created in 1992 for the purpose of Interactive Distance Learning (IDL). This allows districts to share teachers and offer classes to students from other schools. The member school districts are Peabody USD398, Hillsboro USD410, Marion USD408, Centre USD397, and Herington USD487.

Programs and Events

There are multiple types of programs teachers can utilize in the classrooms. Some of these cost but a lot are free. Some member district has purchased programs through Greenbush for you to use in your classroom. I will send out a monthly calendar out by email for you to view and choose from. To view the current calendar click here.  

There are free programs such as Museums, Science through Wichita State University, and programs with NASA. There are several other types free and I will advertise them through the year. To view the links to these connections click here.

Collaborative projects are my favorite! These are where teachers and students are paired and exchange information and work on projects together. All of these are FREE. I will post these as they are available.

If you are interested in doing any of these connections please contact me at brandi@usd408.com or call me at 620.877.0237. I will set them up and help you all I can to make it easy for you and your class.

Once I register you for an event or program, you can view your connection date on the Calendar. Click here to view the calendar.
