Michigan Joint Education Conference
The First Michigan Joint Education Conference on Wednesday, June 25, 2008 at Holt High School in Holt, Michigan, featured sessions directed at teachers and administrators on integrated education, curriculum and instruction. The Michigan Joint Education Conference provided an invaluable opportunity for educators who team teach or those that teach several disciplines, to learn techniques that connect lesson plans, create integrated program scripts and increase personal and professional merit through continued education. Sessions were presented by teams of educators from different backgrounds focusing on integrating relevant instruction.
