Are you a teacher or administrator who has been reluctant to try using social media tools such as Twitter to connect with other educators? Have you wanted to expand your professional learning network but just didn't know how? Often it's because you haven't seen how it can help you, and you don't feel you have the time to learn with all of the many demands on your time. You aren't alone. I guarantee that you won't want to miss this webinar with our special guest, Craig Yen. Craig is a 5th grade teacher who teaches at Valle Verde Elementary in Berkeley, California. He is a fan of all things Edtech and enjoys learning from others and sharing this learning widely. No matter where you go on the internet (or even f2f) you will find him participating and sharing constantly with others, whether it is in EdCamps, webinars, Google Hangouts, Twitter chats, #coffeeEDUs, Mystery Skype calls, or at conferences such as CUE, ISTE and #notatiste. He is someone who is an awesome example of a teacher who has navigated this maze and has learned tools, tips and tricks to manage it with great success (and still keep his sanity)! Within this session, you will learn what it means to be a connected educator. Tips will be given on how to manage your Twitter stream and how and where to find people to connect with. He'll also share examples of projects that will demonstrate how you can connect yourself and your students outside the classroom walls.
