After my post of professional development I decided to it my money where my mouth was. I participated in a chat on twitter. I knew of the twitter chat labeled #edchat. When I saw it pop up on my twitter feed I went for it! I went to the search tab and typed in "#edchat". Edchat are various conversations set up around different questions. Today's conversation was about the role of Direct Instruction and lecture in the classroom.
It was awesome. I read others' perspectives, comments when I had a thought or opinion on a tweet and people responded to me. It really got the wheels turning, validation on some of my opinions, and I even found some people to follow. I strongly recommend you to try out an edchat too. They are at noon and 7pm daily. See you on the next edchat!
