30 Day Twitter Challenge for Teachers




Came across this site as I have been researching Twitter for the classroom. Great looking program to help teachers learn how, when, and why to use Twitter in the classroom.

Eric has broken down 30 Twitter lessons into short video clips. Perfect for anytime/anywhere learning.

The Educator's PLN

The Educator's PLN is a wonderful site put together by Tom Whitby "dedicated to the support of a Personal Learning Network for Educators". There is a place to sign up to join the page and be a part of the PLN's conversation, but there are many free resources you can access without joining.

My favorite spot is the Video section. http://edupln.com/video

Members compiled this collection of videos from the likes of Sir Ken Robinson, Daniel Pink, David Thornburg, Alan November, Adam Bellow, and many others,


For example, here is a video from Adam Bellow about one of my new favorite tools EduClipper.


Come and learn from some of the best the web has to offer.

TEQ Online

http://www.teq.com/images/logo-w-tag.png 


Teq has been a great resource for me for about a year or more. They are a company that offers professional development mainly to the New York area, but offer many online webinars and resources. Many of them cover SMART Board resources, but they do offer other technology PD as well.

Make sure to check out the main portions of their site.

Their Blog - a great place for quick tips and tricks

Educator Resource Center - offers many interactive whiteboard lessons and resources like objects and game templates

Video Archive - Check out archives of their Webinars, and quick tutorial videos on a variety of other technology.

Teq Resources - offers several eBooks covering topics such as SMART Notebook, Apps, flipped classroom, and their latest one All Things Google.

Links - this is a page that links to many resources they refer to in many of their presentations. You might have to sift through the Hebrew and common core links, but there are many great links already gathered here.

They have also just started an Online PD site of over 50 courses of live web-based PD, but it does cost an individual $200/year to join.


It would definitely be worth your time to check out the free resources at Teq.
