PD on the Go Part 1: Time to Join the Flock


Welcome to the first post of my new mini-series "PD on the Go"!  As professionals in a rapidly evolving field, teachers need to be in the know on current educational practices and new information being discovered in their subject area.  Of course, time is always the issue when juggling a teaching career, extracurriculars, and personal life.  Therefore, PD must be delivered in an efficient manner which leads us to  . . . . Twitter.  Yes, it is a social media tool, however, within 5 minutes of scanning your Twitter feed waiting in line at the grocery store or in-between commercials of your favorite TV show, you will be able to gather a surprisingly ample amount of up-to-date information about your field.
