Wow! Twitter is amazing!! I briefly looked at Twitter in the spring but I didn't find that it was very interesting since I was first looking at it as just a social site. I am a regular user of Facebook and Twitter seemed like a simplified version of Facebook. Boy was I wrong!
As an educator, you are always looking for resources to help you create better and more interactive lessons and be a better teacher in general. Well, Twitter can help you do that! If you select the 'right' people to follow, you can receive an amazing amount of helpful and interesting links and teaching ideas.
I feel that teachers need to step out of their comfort zone a little bit and really explore the Internet. It's time to utilize social sites like Twitter and share and learn from other teachers out there in the world.
Below you will find my five latest tweets.
