Extra Credit - Evidence of Participation in on Online Educational Community Extra Credit Project
After our discussion in Hangouts, I have changed my mind about Twitter. In the past I have seen it as a waste of time since I have seen others use it to post trivial information like what they ate for breakfast or to just get a rise out of others. To get more information I talked to another teacher and asked her if she uses it and if so what she uses it for. She said she is more likely to look at what other people post (a creeper in her words), but that she follows information about Google and Google products for the classroom.
So I set up my Twitter account I looked for groups that had to do with technology and education for now. I am starting by following STEM education, #EduTweetTech and PDST Tech in Ed. For the moment I think I’ll be checking out what other people are saying, but I am looking forward to checking out the different online communities that will help me to grow as a teacher and help others grow. Here are copies of my first two tweets:
