I think of myself as a learner before any of my other life roles (educator, coach, wife, dog mom, friend, traveler, etc.). I enjoy learning and doing new things. As I have moved into my role as a digital learning coach this year, I have found that my need for learning has jumped to a new level. Not only do I have so much to learn as a coach, but I need fresh new ideas to share with all of the educators on my campuses. I am so thankful for my DLC team, campus educators, and digital PLN that I can bounce ideas off of and learn new things with. One tool I use for learning and growing my PLN is Twitter. I am a pretty avid twitter user but I have never been great at joining Twitter chats. They have always seemed a little overwhelming to me. Last Wednesday I participated in my first Twitter Chat #educoach (normally I just creep for a few minutes and then leave). I found it much easier to navigate than I had previously experienced (thanks to help of TweetDeck) and I got some great resources to continue looking through. I felt like I was taking a step in the right direction for trying to reach my goals this year. At a recent DLC PLC meeting we were discussing Twitter chats and how to find them. After that discussion, my co-worker and Friend Sam Neal, wrote these AMAZING blog posts about Twitter chats and how to manage what she calls the "Twitterverse". Since I am all about learning from others I will let you read her posts instead of trying to re-write them myself 😉 . I hope you find her information as useful as I did and are able to continue learning from all of the amazing educators out there. Enjoy and happy learning! Megan
