The always on nature of professional
learning on Twitter enhances modern PD by giving teachers the option to locate
and follow those with the information they want. As a first grade teacher I am
now able to look up list of educators and check out what they are doing and get
ideas for my own classroom. Many times I have seen links for conferences and or
reviews of conferences or PD’s others have actually gone to. It is nice to read
what others have to say about the things they have done and it helps me decide
where I want to go. I follow teachers that I have seen at MACUL and have gained
lots of great information when it comes to using technology.
I don’t really have a lot of
concerns about Twitter. I just think that I need to use it more in order to
become more comfortable with the format and how to do it. I admit that I am not
on it enough and need to try it out more. When I am on it I find that it is a
useful tool in education for both teachers and as time goes on for students as
well.
