Only one more Chad’s Choices from the Community post is coming this year! Keep reading to learn about the DEN Community. You’ll find a few blog posts and resources that were shared by a DEN member on Twitter. Keep in mind, while others may have also shared the same post/article, I saw it posted by the person I’m noting below. Forgive me if I’m not giving credit to the person who first posted it. In addition, you’ll find a few blogs by DEN members and members from community to follow on Twitter. Some of the people listed are veteran DEN members while others are new to the community. Lastly, I’d like to share a DEN Person of Interest.

Person of Interest
This week’s DEN Person of Interest is Lindsay Morhart. Lindsay is a STAR from Moose Jaw, SK and is working hard to bring the great resources from DEN Connects to Canadian educators. Linsday is helping find resources from Discovery Education Canada that match the lessons shared in DEN Connects. She’s even contributing lessons as well. She attended the DEN Summer Institute and shared a lot with those in attendance this past summer in Vermont. Follow her students, the Morhart Minions, on Twitter and on their class blog.
