    A1) Some isn't new. But Twitter is where we build community. That community is always learning and growing. #nt2t

  • mjjohnson1216 May 6 @ 9:15 AM EDT
    Yes! Also been reflecting about the element of "trust" that is developed by same PLN group over time. #nt2t

    #NT2t A1: Morning from sunny Manitoba Canada. I find edu Twitter a wealth of information and great source of collaborations.
  • letysmariang May 6 @ 9:15 AM EDT
    Twitter is an excellent tool to share, develop new ideas with fellow teachers. A lot to be learn #Nt2t
  • shyj - Moderator May 6 @ 9:15 AM EDT
    Especially when opinions are global. You learn so much more from diverse opinions. #BetterTogether #NT2t
    In reply to @EoinLenihan
  • CHitch94 May 6 @ 9:15 AM EDT
    True in that the good stuff gets "recycled" - retweeted, reshared, etc.. Totally agree about community being key. #nt2t
    In reply to @JeremyDBond
  • shyj - Moderator May 6 @ 9:16 AM EDT
    Makes me wonder....what is the definition of "news?" #NT2t
    In reply to @JeremyDBond
  • GruntledChalkie May 6 @ 9:16 AM EDT
    A2. You can have no followers on twitter and have a voice. The more interesting that voice the more you'll attract #nt2t
  • jschwartzcen May 6 @ 9:16 AM EDT
    That has been my experience time and time again. #nt2t
  • meganbeechy May 6 @ 9:16 AM EDT
    A2) There are lots of people who don't have 5,000 followers, but still have great things to say for people to learn from #NT2t
  • JeremyDBond May 6 @ 9:16 AM EDT
    Have you had the opportunity to be taught? What would we get from that that we're not getting now? #nt2t

    Hello Aprajita! So thankful to have you join us! #NT2t
    In reply to @ApraRalli
  • shyj - Moderator May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT
    A2: It is NOT about the number of followers you have, but the quality of interactions you have. We are here to learn from each other! #NT2t
  • mjjohnson1216 May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT
    A2. I am excited by what everyone on Twitter shares! I want to hear/read what newbies have to share. #nt2t
  • CHitch94 May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT
    A2) Wrong! Not how many followers you have but ideas you share, connections you make, & your willingness to communicate that matter. #nt2t
  • ChouinardJahant May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT
    A2 #NT2t I never look at followers- I read Tweets & if I am inspired & they are like-minded I follow- I don't think I will ever have 5000 🤔
  • JKatzaman May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT
    A2 False. Just this last week I was in a chat with a guest host "influencer" who has little more than 1,000 followers. #NT2t
  • MrCourington53 May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT
    A2: The only way to build your community is to put yourself out there. Great connections will follow. #Nt2t We are better together.
  • Elizabethutch May 6 @ 9:17 AM EDT

    A2 Once I got my first follower that I didn't know f2f, I felt legit and people did care about what I shared. :) #NT2t
  • shyj - Moderator May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    Yeah, there will be things popping up in unusual places this year! #NT2t
    In reply to @GruntledChalkie
  • bgriffinteach May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    A2: What matters are the ideas you share. Join a chat group and get your ideas out there. #NT2t
  • ChouinardJahant May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    A2 #NT2t I think as educators we do not think that way- going to chats & being collaborative is more important then how many followers
  • mjjohnson1216 May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    Agreed! For many years I didn't even have a journal - then found ASCD - then conf. - now Twitter. It evolves. #nt2t

  • higginbothamm May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    A2 what matters is having your opinion and ideas out there, and the quality of them, recognition might come later, info matters now #nt2t
  • shyj - Moderator May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    Agree, but so many don't have the skills or don't want to take the time to use the skills. #NT2t
    In reply to @Elizabethutch
  • EoinLenihan May 6 @ 9:18 AM EDT
    A2. Chats like #nt2t are so important because nobody checks or cares about follower counts only your ideas and what they can learn from you.
