So far I am really enjoying this module. I am thrilled about my iGoogle homepage. I love having everything in one place. Google docs & forms are going to revolutionize how I collaborate, assess and gather data.
Regarding Twitter, I had no idea how essential it could be for my professional development. I already feel like I’m “in the know” and I haven’t even really begun. In Ernie Cox’s article, “Building a Future-Ready Professional Learning Network”, the idea of coordinating or being a part of a “tweetup” with other educators to discuss the 21st Century Learning Standards, for example, is awesome. I know this is probably rare but it still intrigues me. Now, I don’t have to feel alone in my thoughts about what I’m studying. I can blog, tweet, comment, post, or whatever about it. That’s a good feeling . . . knowing there are other professionals out there who are passionate about the same things I am passionate about.
