A4 #ruraledchat The only real risk was that I would fail, but then I must practice what I preach to my Ss: First Attempt In Learning

dene_gainey Jan 10 @ 9:12 PM EST

A4: Biggest risk was "is this information viable?" or "Will it be read?" Taking the chance to let the inward come out #edumatch #ruraledchat

RuralEdChat Jan 10 @ 9:10 PM EST

#RuralEdChat Q4: How risky was this project for you personally? How did you overcome this to be successful?

Rdene915 Jan 10 @ 9:12 PM EST

#ruraledchat #edumatch A4 Writing about exper doesnt feel as risky, but wanting to get it right, show benefits, right words

A4: It felt extremely risky. Even though I live "open book" now that's true forever. My #PLN gave me confidence. #RuralEdChat

A4 #RuralEdChat I tried to play it cool, but I was freaking out the entire time 😂 Really wanted this to work bc my co-authors are amazing..
