Twitter, is not just for popular culture. Its not just for sharing what you had for lunch. It is actually the best way to connect quickly with teachers of like-mindedness, as well as teachers who will boggle your mind with what they do in their classroom.
To encourage teachers to venture onto Twitter in order to engage with innovative thinkers, I have started a tutorial series titled "Twitter for Innovative Thinkers." Part 1 is called "Educator's Guide to Twitter: The Profile Page." In this first tutorial I explain how Twitter is a great place for professional development for teachers. I then go through the elements of a Twitter profile page to prepare YOU to set up an account.
In Part 2 titled "Hashtags and other Twitter Terms I Don't Know" I will
share the construction of a tweet along with the importance of a
hashtag. Coming soon.
I double-dog dare you to open a Twitter account today and begin
experiencing learning (as a teacher) like never before! Have Fun!
