How to Use Twitter to Build Knowledge and a Professional Network
Video Tutorials
Since creating my Twitter account in 2011, I have gained over 10,000 followers and posted over 18,000 tweets. But more importantly, I’ve created connections with educators and organizations that have positively impacted my work within my school.
Twitter doesn’t come with a guide, at least one I am aware of that leads toward the larger reasons for leveraging social media for professional growth. The short demonstrations I share here offer strategies and tips I have found effective over time. I hope you find them helpful as well!
