#EdChatME

Every Thursday from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM join educators from around our state of Maine on Twitter sharing and discussing several pre-determined topics.  Tonight's (May 15) discussion is on Digital Citizenship; which is an excellent topic.  Why?  Because it is a topic that so many of us know so little about, and it so vital to understand its impact on our students, not to mention ourselves.  For more information on the #EdChatME Maine event, go here.

How do I join?
If you are new to Twitter, here's how you can join.  Simply search for the hashtag #EdChatME in Twitter.


The great thing about joining a hashtag discussion like this is that you can find other contacts (Tweeps) of interest that you can follow.  Look at their list of Tweeps they follow and find more Follows; to help build your Personal Learning Network.

You don't need a Twitter account
You can "listen" in on any Twitter hashtag dialog without a Twitter account and full ability to find idea and content from the sharing.  Simply go to tweetchat.com and search for the hashtag #EdChatME.

Because #edchatme is not in session there were no live tweets at the time I created this video.  You will notice #edchat is used instead for the purpose of demonstrating the use of TweetChat

If you are interested in creating a Twitter account and making a Personal Learning Network out of it, by all means, please contact me and I will walk you through how to make the most of Twitter.
