Getting Started: Connected Educator Month #CE13

"Meaningful change ain’t gonna happen for our kids if we’re not willing to invest in it for ourselves first. At the heart, it’s not about schools…it’s about us." -- Will RichardsonMany educators see Twitter, in particular, and social media, in general, as frivolous wastes of time. I mean, who really cares what Honey Boo Boo is up to? Who cares what J.T. had for breakfast? Or any other celebrity…See More

Stepping onto the social media landscape

Getting started with social media can be daunting. I remember when I started exploring Twitter a few years ago. Like many others, when I sign up, I didn't get it.

I began to read and explore the resources they shared and slowly...I learned more. As I learned, I began to get…See More

Why Twitter is the hub of my personal learning network

A few days ago a teacher in our district asked me about different online publishing platforms for her students. She explained that her students are working on writing mystery stories and she was looking for a way for them to share their writing with others, get feedback and publish their work. In the days B.T. (Before Twitter), I would have headed right for Google and dug in. But I didn't. Instead, I sent out the following tweet:Within a few minutes, I received two responses.The first response…See More

Jennie,

I'm so glad that it helped you!  If you have any questions about the deployment or management for "little learners" please don't hesitate to ask!  We definitely had some unintended issues and "aha moments" along the way.  Actually, we are working on submitting an article to ISTE's magazine about advice for colleagues.  Take care!
