"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.
