3. DISCOVERY
@DISCOVERY
Discusses different topics,
hobbies, and new
technologies and
discoveries in the world!
Their Twitter account
provides links to articles and
neat tidbits of information.
Provides current and
interesting facts I can share
with my students at any age
level – education doesn’t
need to be restricted to the
curriculum!
Tweets everyday throughout
the day.
4. NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC
@NATGEO
Provides informative articles
(both brief and extensive)
on various natural things
that I can share with my
students on a daily basis!
Again, education does not
need to be restricted to the
curriculum.
National Geographic also
covers current political and
social events that occur
worldwide – I could really
use it in my Social Studies
classroom!
5. ALBERTA EDUCATION
@ALBERTAED
Keeps me updated on
what’s happening in
the world of Alberta
Education.
A great resource to find
out what changes are
being made and when,
first!
6. PLN PARTICIPATION…
Twitter provides me with fast, brief and informative resources
that I can use in almost any classroom setting and age range.
Twitter can link me to any professional in any part of the world
instantly and efficiently. It is a great way to spread the word
about educational developments, changes and issues quickly, as
I can link it to all my other social media accounts, both personal
and professional.
My Twitter account includes such resources as fellow educators,
educational experts and other social media organizations.
I have expanded my professional network by following these
educators, experts and organizations and retweeting their tweets
to help spread the word.
