With this technological world, teachers need to find a way to connect with our students and their families. We need to find creative ways to keep updated with the education industry and all the changes around the world. Using Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms are great to use as a professional resource. For example, by using twitter, as a teacher I can post updates about my classroom, share pictures of students' work, update parents on upcoming events, and so much more. In addition, using social media allows for parents to reach out and follow their child's work.
Not only is social media great for the parents and the students, but it is great for making connections. As teachers, we can follow important educational mentors, different teaching strategies, and other teachers. That way we can share our ideas, reach out if we need supports, and have great resources at our fingertip. Our world is forever developing with technology, so as a teacher, I want to make sure that I am staying with the times, and staying connected with all my students.
This post was very well thought out. I agree that this is a good way for us to make connections. Your bitmoji is really fitting for a teacher with the globe and background. Well done!
