Hello there and welcome to connect2mec. Thanks for stopping to take a look, we hope you'll visit regularly!

There are so many MEC users out there (75,000 and counting) and all so widely dispersed around the world, that sharing ideas on how best to use MEC was always going to be a challenge. The aim of the blog is to solve this dilemma by giving you an opportunity to share your MEC experiences, and ideas on blended learning in general, with MEC teachers worldwide!

While you're here you should also take a look at our Links to other useful ELT related websites and also our Blogroll - there's loads of information from experienced teachers and experts in ELT.

We'll be keeping you updated on all the gossip from the MEC offices, running MEC Clinics (online refresher sessions and forums for sharing knowledge), answering your questions, giving you ideas from guest bloggers and MEC authors, and generally providing you with inspiration on how to be the best MEC teacher ever!

All your comments and suggestions are most welcome. So go on, give us a piece of your mind - connect to MEC!
