Social networks for educators

Posted at 2:55 pm under Daily Living Skills, General Education, High Schools New Face, communication with teachers, instructional resources, personnel, self-directed teacher professional development, student outreach, virtual school communties




There are a ton of social networks out there for educators.  Here are some that I use.

  • NING
  • Tapped In
  • Classroom 2.0
  • Twitter

Two teachers at the Hewes Center have joined classroom 2.0 and this is great.  I would like the new gym teacher, Jamie Swanson to join Twitter because I have invited a “friend” who is following me precisely because he owns his own gym and is big into teaching, health and exercise.  I would like Jamie to maximise her interest in digital technology to introduce our students to exercising for health and mind so as to reap its myriad rewards.
