address issues/questions that
educators can look at.

with other educators and shares
his insight with them. I think that

source to get answers and
feedback.

7. My PLN ParticipationMy PLN Participation
Twitter has been able to provide me with a supportive community of
educational experts and technology professionals from all over the
world.
The focus of my Twitter account has been with k-12 educators with
different specialities not only limited to sciences; many technological
innovators/specialists in education; and educational support programs
(i.e. Education Rising, Safe Schools, Eye on Education and 21st
century teacher)
I think that people I’ve followed so far will be useful as I am personally
growing in the educational field. With the wide range of not only
experts but other educators, I feel that I have a support system where I
can seek advice, resources, tools, websites, games and much more.
