The Michigan Department of Education (MDE) is seeking individuals interested in an internship opportunity to support implementation of Strategy 7.3b of Michigan’s Top 10 in 10 Strategic Plan, to “promote a culture of innovation and continuous improvement within the broad educational system by identifying, promoting, and rewarding the implementation of promising practices throughout the entire educational system by creating an MDE website for promising practices.”
This internship is unpaid and begins in the fall of 2018. The ideal candidate for this internship is an individual seeking an education degree, and some work experience in sales and marketing would be helpful. The intern will meet with MDE staff to discuss educators doing great things around the state and will then reach out to these educators, talk to them about their practices, and encourage them to submit their Promising Practices to the MIEducator Showcase website. The intern will also provide some basic technical assistance to identified educators in submitting their contribution to this website.
If you are interested in this opportunity, please have them contact Jennifer Robel in the Office of Educator Excellence at RobelJ@michigan.gov.
