Not on Twitter? It’s time…Let’s get connected! Right now! Get the Twitter app Sign up (short name, picture, bio) Send out a tweet using the hashtag #ehsteachers about the best thing you’ve learned or done today. (140 character max)

Twitter can be the best professional development you will ever attend…and the best part is that you can do it in your underwear. #pdinpjs Agenda Using Twitter without tweeting- lurking (It’s ok!) Understanding #hashtags and Twitter chats Tweeting – it’s easier than you think!

What I have learned from Twitter I have discovered so many new and exciting things in the world of education. This is just a list of topics, strategies, etc. that I have discovered or explored via Twitter… 20% Time/Genius Hour Self-Paced Learning Project-Based Learning Benefits of Blogging Self-Reflection Mastery Based Learning Technology – 1:1, iPad, Chromebooks Twitter Chats Lesson Ideas Resources Classroom Management Ideas EdCamps QR Codes

Using Twitter without tweeting Start Lurking! Set up an account (avoid personal accounts) Just search using the Twitter search bar (#s)

Understanding #Hashtags Hashtags (#) are the key to Twitter Knowing the right hashtags will help you find the good stuff on Twitter Some key ones - #edchat #sschat #engchat #mathchat #scichat, #edleadchat #spedchat #tlap #caedchat, #1st5days…#ehsteachers Notice the word chat…Twitter chats are confusing and fast, but very valuable.

Tweeting… it’s easier than you think! Scary at first You all have something to contribute and can be helpful to someone else, even if you don’t think so. So much of our profession is based on collaboration and sharing (stealing). Share what you do or what you find. It makes us all better.

In addition to great resources, sometimes you just find things that make you think or get you reflecting on your own practices

Advanced Use Evernote/Evernote Web Clipper to store everything you find. Use Tweetdeck once you become more familiar with Twitter.

Now What? Follow and browse and follow people that I follow. Tweet using #ehsteachers during breakouts Refer to the hashtags and start lurking! me if you have any questions. Have a great year!!!
