As part of my MA course, I joined twitter this week. I have used twitter before but not in an educational way so I am excited to get started and use it in a way to help connect with other teachers, discuss topics and share resources. Social media can get quite a bad rap in the media, but if we use it correctly it can be a great learning tool. It can help develop teacher’s Professional Development, as well as helping students connect with the outside world in a safe and educational way. I am only starting off with twitter, so it is a work in progress.Stay tuned to see my progress!! đ
