- I created two ways to try to get information to parents and share great things happening at our school.Big risk – putting myself out there with FB page – perk of the small district I am in – autonomy to take risksFB was an immediate hit – but heavily moderated. No major issuesTwitter notsomuch but then started to connect with educators – reading blogs, etc
- Invited to blog at Connected Principals – started to expand my network and become closer with other adminAsked to present online – presented on parent engagementMostly cross-postsConnectedprincipals.com and #cpchat – connections formed through CP have developed into friendships and people I confide in
- I get to ‘see’ what is happening in schools across the globe. Ask questions and get so many views. All this is IN ADDITION to my school and district.GLOBAL connection also strengthens my local connections My network continues to grow but it is important to keep those key relationships close.
- Edcamps, Conference experiences, keynotes,etc
- Dive deeper into the important question of Why – will never do the how and the what without the whySocial beings, relationships. learning

- Releases song PrayPromoted through SMReaches #1 on iTunes ahead of Nickelback, Rhianna, etcChallenges Nickelback ---- Nickelback donates $50,000 to Children’s hospital
- You have the power to create your own positive footprint. What does your footprint look like? Why is this important? Jobs for teachersStart small… twitter and a place to store/share your thoughts (posterous is an easy one)
- Continue the conversations in your M.Ed Programs… and then include others.Connect beyond the world of education.
- Too big to know

- Think about your work in your M.Ed program… do you want to see it impacting change beyond this weekend and beyond your class/schools?
- 2011 Learning and networkingwith other educators has provided me with great ideas to share and propose to staffIdentity Day
- Share stories that connect with peopleHuge shift in my teaching/leading– strength vs deficit thinkingDom’s teacher showed it to him – he commented.
- Its not social media that is changing ed – it is the people.No longer are there pockets of isolated brilliance – this can now be shared. Ripple effectSpreading of ideas… and improving on them. Colliding hunches. Sharing and exploring the WHY of education reform – parents, teachers, students.Not about public vs private or schools competing with each other – share ideas and watch em grow

- What is your social media strategy?Why are you sharing ideas?Is it all about YOUR ideas or conversation around ideas?Is it all about YOUR stories or the stories of others?
- We are social beings – most (not all) want to connect
- Sharing out story – providing ways for parents to “see” inside our school.Trust that it will be ok. Moving from culture of fear to a culture of trust. Modeling effective use of social mediaMeet people where they are.Newsletter – 10 good things – paper to blog to email, FB, Twitter
- Story of @garriochRead parts of blog
- Can be a lonely profession – social media can connect with people in the same building, community as well as throughout the world.
- It is about finding quality connections rather than numbers… used hashtags to reach wider audience. Build your network over time.Can you have deeper learning via Twitter? No but the relationships built from then create more opps for these conv in different venues.EFFORT IN = REWARD OUT
- Again – share your stories of your learning in the M.Ed program or at your school… create further dialogue.OR share what is happening in your classrooms. How will parent s understand that school is different if they never see in?Share the WHY.
- Share the stories of your class/school.Let people “in”. How will parent s understand that school is deifferent if they never see in?
- RELATIONSHIPSSTORIESGo beyond the world of education to lead change.
