Twitter

Today I will share some "tweets" that were posted by professionals in educational technology.  Twitter, which is a free social networking service, has become a popular way for professionals to share.  This week Linda Braun @lbraun2000 shared the following information. 

I was excited to read that the Kindle Kids' Book Creator software is available and can't wait to try it out.  Another exciting "tweet" was shared by Tony Vincent +Tony Vincent  informing us that his, My Story -Book Maker for Kids, is free right now and it won an award.




 

The Daring Librarian +Gwyneth Jones posted a "tweet" sharing photography projects.  See below to improve your creativity.



Jim Lerman @jimlerman shared some easy to use tech tools for educators.  Pinterest is one of my favorites!



Kathy Schrock +Kathy Schrock "tweeted" steps for creating presentations using your ipad.  I know that will come in handy.




And last but not least on my list is Buffy Hamilton @ buffyjhamilton. She shares an article in Edtech Digest on the blended approach to teaching which involves digital and analog tools.  I agree that a combination of both yields the best results.

These are just some examples of the benefits of using Twitter.  Initially, I had my doubts but Twitter has slowly won me over.  What a great way to get some great information out there.
