Blogging and Twitter--Social Media is Upon Us!

Remember these things:

• A blog is not as complicated as it sounds. :)
• It's *very* similar to Microsoft Word.
• Just type everything you want to say and click 'publish'.
• Parents can view this blog on any device--from any location.
• With a blog, there is really NO excuse as to why students aren't prepared. 
• It *doesn't* enable--it provides another means to reach 'hard to reach' parents.
• It is *extremely* helpful when students are absent.
• You can type your blog in the privacy of your own home--in your PJs *or* on vacation! (Because that's what we all want to do on vacation!)
• The blog can be printed out and sent home as a hard copy for students with no Internet. 
• If you can't beat 'em, join 'em--technology isn't going away. (The Internet will *never* be cancelled!) 
• I can help you get started! (You need a gmail account first and foremost.) Just ask for help!

• Twitter
• Great way to conduct an online PLC with teachers statewide and nationwide.
• Sunday nights @ 8pm-- #wyoedchat
• James Kapptie--organizer--he's the one who did the Twitter class on Tech Day.
