  • 13 Great Twitter Chats Every Educator Should Check Out
  • Interested in giving Twitter chats a try? Here are a few tips to get you started:
  • 1. Use a tool like Tweetdeck, Tweetchat, or Twubs to follow that chat. On a mobile device, you may find an app like Hootsuite to be helpful.
  • ...16 more annotations...
  • 2. It's okay to lurk (which means to follow the discussion, but not participate) at first. Lurking is learning! At the same time, don't be afraid to jump into the conversation
  • 3. When participating in a chat, don't forget to include the chat hashtag, prefaced by the # sign, or else chat participants will miss your Tweets
  • 4. Some chats move very quickly and it can be difficult to keep with all the chatter
  • . Often, a link to the archive will be shared at the end of the chat. Or, just do a Google search for the chat hashtag and the word "archives." For example, a search for "edchat archives" brings you quickly to the #edchat archive at edchat.pbworks.com. 
  • 5. Participating in Twitter chats is a great way to build your Personal Learning Network. Twitter chats attract passionate educators who are dedicated to lifelong learning, improving their professional practice, and sharing resources with others
  • #edchat: Considerd the "grandfather" of educational chats, #edchat is one of the most popular chats and is held on Tuesdays from 12 to 1 and 7 to 8 pm Eastern Time
  • #edtechchat: is dedicated to all things related to Education Technology and takes place Mondays from 8 to 9 pm Eastern Time.
  • #satchat: Fascinating discussions about education and leadership are held on Saturday mornings from 7:30 to 8:30 am Eastern Time.
  • If you aren't up that early on weekends, you can catch #satchatwc (Satchat West Coast) at 10:30 am ET. For a uniquely global discussion, #satchatoc attracts a lot of international participants and is held Friday nights at 8:00 pm ET
  • Learn more at the satchat website. 
  • #flipclass: Interested in flipping your classroom? Join the #flipclass chat on Monday nights from 8 to 9 pm
  • #sschat: This can't-miss chat for History/Social Studies teachers takes place Mondays from 7 to 8 pm. English teachers should check out the #engchat discussion held at the same time.

    Grades are just a math game. This is what I told students many years ago. "If you know how to work the numbers, you can get a good grade."

    I have been following Mark Barnes and Starr Sackstein this year, they are doing really amazing things in their classrooms and moving away from grades. They co-moderate a group on Facebook called "Teachers Throwing out Grades" and have a Twitter Chat Monday nights at 7 #TTOG - it is worth checking out!

    Unlike the sequels to movies, I hope that part two of last year's Energy and Calm post will continue to strengthen your understanding of how our brains naturally learn, think, and behave. So let's return to the calming yet energizing zone of focused attention practices and brain breaks, a place that would greatly benefit students -- and their teachers -- when revisited frequently.
