The goal of the Teachers Learning in Networked Communities (TLINC) Project is to support teachers in a professional community. TLINC is teachers offering teachers mentoring, collegial support, and skilled guidance. A key part of the project is close collaboration between higher education faculty and school district professionals. It's like Facebook for teachers, in a good way. It is social and professional networking with a purpose.

There are thousands of teachers using our online community, on the site called TappedIn. TappedIn is supported by SRI International, and is free for techers to use.
