we want this for teachers. we want it for students.\n
i think teachers want to learn. they just don’t know where to focus their efforts. i don’t see many teachers that refuse to engage with new tools or social media. \n
Teachers on Twitter fed out of ETC\n using Diigo and MHH to share resources\n
structure that works for us: beginning of month, midmonth, end of moneth\nthe wiki is the place where we share ideas and collaborate\nTEACHERS ON TWITTER. model for them, get it started. hashtags will help. that was one of our first sessions, that and social bookmarking, and it’s served us well. \nget them set up with reader.\nInvite them to conferences such as this. book talks. \n
\n
organized the whole day through social media\nteachers used feedback forms\nsaw the move from consumer of info to producer and sharer - I now have teachers blogging and putting their ideas out there for others to see\n
what we ultimately want is a teacher who is open to learning from all of these sources. \n
challenges\ntime - get creative. Use the tools.\nfixed mindsets- show successes, relate back to students\nrecognition - celebrate, make them the leaders; share their stuff\nshow their efforst are valued- act 48 credit, curriculum rate, etc,\n
