Social media as a form of curation and networking, beneficial for teachers to adopt technological skills, what’s not to love?? I love how educators are now progressing into the 21st century through these online groups, allowing students to reach their full potential. As technology is constantly advancing it makes sense that teachers need to include technology more in their classrooms and everyday lives. Excellent post. It has given me much to think about.

That’s true, isn’t it. Social media was frowned upon a little in the past as being unprofessional! I remember trying to convince teachers 10+ years ago that I loved Twitter because it was a way to learn, get ideas, and connect with classes that my own students could collaborate with. People often just didn’t seem to get it! It’s great things have changed.

Thanks for sharing your favourite groups too. Sounds like a nice mix!

I’m in love with the shift in the mindset of teachers and social media. I can recall at the onset of social media taking off that it was such a forbidden place for educators but now I’m finding it to be one of my best resources. I thoroughly enjoy the Facebook groups because they are an extension of support that is desperately needed in this profession. My favorite groups to follow on Facebook are: WeAreTeachers Helpline, Black Educators Rock, Teachers Who Slay, and regionally Teachers of Atlanta.
