Teachers,
are you wondering how Twitter
can help you teach? You are in the right place, where you will learn
the in's and out's of creating your own personal learning network
(PLN).
Set up an account, it is free, and fairly straight forward.
Once you have selected a username (choose one that is either the real
you, or has an educational spin) then you are on your way to creating
a network of like minded educators thirsty for relevant information
about teaching. Register below for Twitter for Educator
updates and tweet drawings for Twitter Teacher clothing, mousepads,
coffee mugs and more.
Then follow
us on Twitter and follow Mr.
Tweet. Some other suggested folks to follow are some of our favorites,
because they never veer from the educational to the personal. For
our time on Twittter to be valuable, we want to follow people who
are educationally relevant 99% of the time. Here is our top list of educational Twitterers:
