Twitter

My experience with Twitter this semester has been great! I have had the opportunity to make several professional connections through this social media site, which has been insightful. It also helps when trying to stay abreast of relevant educational topics! I have really enjoyed making the professional contacts on this forum. As well as exploring all of the ideas that other educators are incorporating within their classes. My top three would have to be Vicki Davis, The Education Trust, and Great Schools. I will continue to use Twitter in my classroom as well. I think that it will be an interesting way to start students thinking about various units throughout the semester. I also think it will be an excellent way to announce upcoming timelines and dates throughout the semester to help remind students of upcoming deadlines.
