Everyday Heroes: Eric Marcos, Ed.M.'03
Congratulations to my friend Eric Marcos for being featured in the Harvard Graduate School of Education "Everyday Heroes" column. Eric's Mathtrain.tv project is amazing and an excellent use of digital storytelling in Math. He is a fellow Google Certified Teacher and I'm so proud of him! Way to go Eric!
