Using Twitter as an Educator

When we first started using Twitter I was not a fan to be honest. I was not sure what the point of it was and didn't feel very comfortable adding people I did not know. Also, the fact that people can add you without your permission somewhat worried me. After exploring Twitter for a couple weeks and adding other educators I see that most of them do not use it as a social network but for professional reasons. This made me feel a lot better about using it and I was happy to find that most of  the posts were very helpful! I explored a few of the websites posted and its amazing how many resources are out there they we may not know about. Twitter could be a great resource for other resources and it is important to pass along the information you get. I have listed a couple helpful and interesting websites that I will probably check out when I have my own classroom and students!
