When we went virtual in April 2020, I was encouraged by a coworker to hop on Twitter and begin tweeting educationally. I was hesitant at first. I have an educational Instagram which was something I enjoyed doing for myself, but this was going to add just something else to my plate. I decided to give it a try. I tweeted every once in a while, but rarely used the app to connect with others or read others' tweets. I only used it to share my own information and media. I tweeted here and there but was never really consistent.
Fast forward to beginning this course - now I had the opportunity (requirement - LOL) to begin tweeting for the real deal. Some days were easier than others to find "content" or ideas to tweet. Other days I struggled to find the time and mental space to log on to Twitter. I learned that it was all about balance, and I am finally finding it.
I enjoy connecting with other teachers, administrators, leaders, and educational technology companies through Twitter. I came across new knowledge to share and felt validated by others' experiences and tweets. I feel as though I will continue to tweet and connect with others upon completion of this course/assignment!
