@PS10BROOKLYNTWEETING FOR A CONNECTED & TRANSPARENT SCHOOL COMMUNITY

@PS10BROOKLYN

• Twitter is but the entry point

• We Tweet, Vine, Instagram, Facebook…

• Social media for the transparent & engaged learning environment

-MR_CASAL #NYSCATE13

“Teachers are the social media ambassadors of your school community”

WHY TWITTER?

• Twitter was new to all

• sometimes it’s easier to teach a new thing than a familiar thing a new way

• Easy to keep “personal” and “professional” separate

• no one had a “personal” account

• It’s a quick, easy to use broadcast platform not requiring viewers to have an account
