"As a teacher, continuing education is so important that most school districts require that teachers enroll in some form of coursework on a regular basis to keep their knowledge and skills fresh. And while those courses are essential, staying on top of the cutting edge of educational development is important as well. Through Twitter discussions, teachers can follow the latest in education, whether it's educational technology or new ways to teach math. These 20 hashtags offer teachers a convenient way to become part of chats and discussions that share the absolute latest in education news, resources, and ideas."

This is a great compilation of twitter hashtags for educators! My favorites are #edchat and #edapp but they are all great ways to get great information about resources and best practices in education. I also love #eduwin where educators are sharing daily posts about what they are doing to make a difference each day in teaching/learning.

"Teacher 2.0 is a community for educators to talk with each other about their personal and professional growth. While Classroom 2.0 (http://www.classroom20.com) has been extremely successful and now has over 56,000 members, the focus of Classroom 2.0 is really around the use of social technologies and the Web in the classroom, and would not necessarily be the right place to talk about reigniting career interests and passions. It seems to me that a more focused community could help provide value for talking about how the Internet, Web 2.0, and social media are providing personal and professional opportunities--and that I can bring in guest speakers for webinars on these topics."

An awesome group created by Steve Hargadon and just getting started as a place for all of us to really focus on our own personal/professional growth as educators. Get singed up (free) and start contributing.
