On finding Twitter buddies: Twitter4Teachers
When people react against using Twitter for social networking, it’s usually because it takes time to build that network.
It takes time to discover whose Tweets you’ll value or enjoy.
A new wiki can help.
Twitter4Teachers began less than a week ago, and was created, as far as I can tell, by Gina. (Please let us know more if you are out there, Gina! I’m awaiting membership approval.)
We can help this baby wiki grow.
We can certainly populate this wiki with more teacher-librarians to follow on Twitter. We can populate it with the screen names of the many tweeting teachers we admire. We can also use it to help our partner classroom teachers and administrators who might be interested in developing their own personal learning network (PLN).
