About the RÉCIT Network
Mandate

Contribute to the development and sharing of national expertise in the use of technology and digital resources for supporting teaching and learning;
Support the development and sharing of this expertise with the local RÉCIT resource team, teachers and professionals who accompany teachers, through:
- the production, distribution, and promotion of resources that support teaching and learning through technology and digital resources (these resources are dedicated to the English community);
- online and in-person workshops or training;
- communities of practice and/or sharing.
Action Plan on Digital Technology & Digital Competency Framework
In light of the "Plan Numérique" recently implemented by the Quebec Ministry of Education, we have developed a resource to help you navigate these new technologies.

Honoré Mercier Podcasts
HONORE MERCIER PODCASTS: Students at Honoré Mercier Elementary School in St. Leonard were pretty busy during the first half of the school year, recording nine tri-lingual (English, French & Italian) podcasts about St. Léonard's most famous landmarks.
Celebrating an important achievement
From Café Milano - Montréal to the Caverne de St. Léonard, plaques will soon be placed in front of these famous locations with #QRCodes, which visitors can scan with their smart phone to listen.
Pedagogical organizations such as the RÉCIT and LEARN have greatly helped, in particular with setting up the BaladoWeb site that hosts all the podcasts.

In addition to the dedicated teachers (Elisa Infusini, Karina Lajeunesse and Antonietta Morena) a team of resource people also contributed to the success of the project: Sonia Marotta (principal), Kish Gué (local RÉCIT consultant), Dimitri Ilias (Panorama), Thomas Stenzel (LEARN) and Sandra Laine (RÉCIT).
(Sonia Marotta, Alan November and Kish Gué at the launch)
The project was launched at the Leonardo Da Vinci Center in Montréal where educational world leader Alan November was kind enough to offer a few words.
