Sue Waters from WA sent out a tweet and I then had lots of connections for blogging. This is how the student blogging challenge started back in 2008.<br /><br />Teachers need to start taking risks and even though I am retired now, I still enjoy the twitter chats and hope we can get more tweetmeets and edcamps going in Tasmania.Miss W.http://studentchallenge.edublogs.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4747366105218280013.post-25488926071176000292014-06-12T02:03:51.211-07:002014-06-12T02:03:51.211-07:00Growing a network means developing as a teacher.

Highlighting the Professional Teaching Standards will hopefully show others how to relate them to their work inside and outside of their classroom.

My pln had grown from twitter and teachmeets, and most are outside my normal networks. I can now call on a wider educators, from primary teachers, through to uni lecturers and from all sectors.<br /><br />As you have shown, anyone can make these connects you just have to start.<br />Phillip @sailpipPhilliphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754439045723946857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4747366105218280013.post-40757898908314334122014-06-09T04:26:38.509-07:002014-06-09T04:26:38.509-07:00It would be clear, to any educator that reads this...It would be clear, to any educator that reads this, that your passion and willingness to embrace new technologies and the wonders they reveal, must surely be of benefit to your students.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04982809532956118738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4747366105218280013.post-40118440125767411652014-06-08T18:34:04.980-07:002014-06-08T18:34:04.980-07:00Your post highlights one of the aspects of teachin...Your post highlights one of the aspects of teaching many outside the field don't fully appreciate - the relationships teachers take the time to foster that make their jobs more manageable and enjoyable. But most interestingly about this post is that rarely do we see 'real' teachers explicitly make reference to the Professional Teaching Standards. If the standards are meaningful, this really should be done more frequently.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16964498698316386831noreply@blogger.com
