Connie Mietlicki, Ph.D.: I-Movie

Connie Mietlicki, Ph.D.: I-Movie

This education movie serves a distinct purpose in creating awareness for educators to understand the importance in connecting learning with any student's life, regardless of age or grade level. Serving as a reminder that many, if not most, students will engage and entertain themselves if learning is not relevant to their lives. In creating learning connections, educators must get a message across that goes beyond the classroom and into their everyday lives in order to keep students wanting, needing, and yearning for more. Connection is the key to learning; without connection information often "goes in ear and out the other." ("My teacher says that I don't listen, at least I think that what she says.")
