#eduFollowChallenge - Day
Keith O'Neal noticed that August is a transition month for educators and observed an increase in Twitter usage or Tweets in general from the educational sector. He thought "How can I get more Educators connected on Twitter?" Here is the NY List of 100 New York Educators to Follow on Twitter! His inspiration came from the idea of getting more educators not just participating in Twitter but also CONNECTED. He writes, "When we are connected we are sharing ideas, resources, successes, & fails. All of these work together to make us stronger, make us better, and fuel us to pursue this thing we call learning." Wow, brilliant couldn't have said it better and it has been my mantra at TeachersWithApps that we all need to work together in order to push tech to make it better and get our kids ready for the future. I am honored that TWA made the list and although it is supposedly in no particular order, it brought a big smile to my face to see our name in the top twenty. Thanks, Keith, keep up the good work!
