I'm Jeremy in Connecticut, USA. #nt2t moderating team member, parent, admitted Oscars obsessive. You'll find me during the ceremony at @JeremyBond_film. #nt2t
Chris from Bloomington, IN. Teach world history for private online HS. I'm wearing Target, outlet mall, and about 20 year old gifted fleece sweatshirt. Stylin'! #nt2t
Good morning, #nt2t
I'm Lee Araoz from Long Island, NY.
My latest award-winning role is District Coordinator of Instructional Technology.
I'm wearing amazing sweats from the Lands End collection.
Great to see you, #nt2t! John from DC here. Instructional Coach by day, aspiring teacher rock star by night. Shirt by @express. Tie by @jcrew. Eyewear by @RalphLauren. Beard by yours truly.
#satchat is my go-to. Saturday mornings at 7:30 Eastern. Clearly laid out and well attended (400+ this morning), with thoughtful questions posted well in advance (with time stamps) to help everyone keep tabs on what’s on tap. #nt2t
A1: I think an educator's state EdChat is an important one to follow. YOu get to network with teachers in your state and hear about local issues. In KS,(#ksedchat )our commissioner of ed joins @KsCommissioner#NT2t

A1: blatant plug for #WhatIsSchool but I genuinely believe it is incredible for bringing people together from every corner of the globe, discussing topics that matter #nt2t
YES--All the President's Men is just brilliant in every way. I was only 3 years old at the time it was out but still argue that it should've won Best Picture. ;) #nt2t
#G2great is my go to on Thursday nights. @DrMaryHoward is such a positive leader and role model. She brings lots of quality participants to the table. #nt2t
Q2) There is a plethora of resources online. There are so many, it's hard to weed through all of them! Share your Oscar-winning, education-related, "Best Resource" and tell us why it's your favorite. #nt2t
So many to choose from! If you’re an early riser, #bfc530 seems to be a great group. And I’m partial to anything with @iste in the title (esp @digcitPLN ) #nt2t
That's one of those movies that, if I come across it while flipping channels, I get hooked even though I've seen it several times. I also do that with Steel Magnolias and Shawshank Redemption. Well, and Star Trek II but that's one of my all time faves. #nt2t
Ha! Yeah, and the thing about President's Men is we know how it turns out and it's still gripping at every turn. You're watching Robert Redford at his desk making phone calls for several minutes and you're riveted. #nt2t
A2) Hmmm. That's so hard. I will say that I get a lot of great ideas and resources from Twitter. I also love @SHEG_Stanford for social studies & civic online reasoning resources. #nt2t
A1: I think it is also important to match the chat to your purpose. As a grad student, I followed #gradchat. As PhD student, #PhDchat. As new faculty, #ECRchat As a Kansas Educator #KSedchat as a literacy teacher #PreserviceLit Interest in rural #RuralEdchat#NT2t
A1: I would give #hacklearning the Oscar for Best Twitter Chat. I like the 30 min. format and the topics are moderated by some of the best EDUs in the business.

A2. @EquityMaps is quite possibly the single best education app I’ve ever seen. Scores your Socratic Seminar in a variety of ways as individuals & as a class. Game changing student engagement. SO lucky Dave found me on Twitter last November & suggested I try his product. #nt2t

Padlet is soooo awesome! I've had students do their final capstone project for my world history course in Padlet. And that was before the new updates! :) #nt2t
A2 My Some of My Favorite Resources page https://t.co/3h24LjRfZH has awesome educators and educational companies to follow to build a great Oscar winning PLN Connect, learn and share with these passionate educators and organizations. #nt2t#edchat#edtechchat#leadLAP#leadupchat
A2: I like @MerriamWebster. They share interesting words, run quizzes, and encourage conversations on Twitter. Their website also has a lot of great language-related articles. #nt2t
Q3) We read, we learn, we grow. What is your choice for the Oscar for "Best Original Screenplay" (article that has shaped your thinking). How has it shaped your thinking? #nt2t
How awesome that he joins! In many places education Twitter feels like rogue teachers when these conversations should have interest from those actually running the joint, too. #nt2t
A2: I've got #FlipGridFever. I tell everyone I can about @FlipGrid. It is an easy way to have students video respond, connect, and explore. There are SO many things you can do with it. #NT2t
A2 Again it is impossible to give just one. @Flipgrid, @MicrosoftEDU MEC, @Newsela Learning Community. All have tremendous resources, activities, and training options. #nt2t
A3) Not just one article but I find @MindShiftKQED puts out a lot of thought provoking articles related to education. @Tolerance_org does this also particularly focused in teaching difficult topics. #nt2t

A3 Twitter chats have greatly shaped my social media thinking, starting with #DigiBlogChat, the first one I stumbled into more than five years ago. #NT2t
Good one! I'm a word nerd and love them too--and they're not too far away from me. Our state spelling bee is next Saturday and can't wait. Was a judge for our local one. #nt2t

A3: The Oscar for Best Original Screenplay goes to The End of Average by Todd Rose. It has shown me that everything we think we know about "average" performance is wrong!
#nt2t
A3: I'm going rogue - a book, not article. Peter Johnston's books "Choice Words" and "Opening Minds" radically changed my thinking about language use in the classroom. #NT2t

Q4) There are so many amazing leaders on Twitter. Who would get the Oscar for "Best Performance in a Leading Role"? (Whose presentations, podcasts, etc., have wowed you over the past year?) #nt2t
I also love Google Keep! Use it for my shopping lists, to share resources & book ideas with my kids, remind myself about different things I want to find, etc. So versatile! #nt2t

A3: Not an article, but "Everybody Writes" by @MarketingProfs changed the way I approach writing and communication.
Also, "Bird by Bird" by @ANNELAMOTT. It taught me to treat everything I do with precision and patience. Advice not only for writing but also for life. #nt2t

@JeremyDBond, @MarketingProfs, @ANNELAMOTT

A4) The @VisionsOfEd podcast is really great as it helps bridge the gap between research and practice in education. Also love the @GTeacherTribe podcast and Harvard Edcast. Just started listening to Modern Learners as well. #nt2t

Two legends who won Best Supporting Actress, Eva Marie Saint and Rita Moreno, are among those presenting at this year's Academy Awards ceremony. Think about who's supported you for our next question. #nt2t
I missed this request from the other day. I'll try to remember from here on. For Saturday, I'm on -- all EST -- #HealthXPh at 8 a.m., #NT2t at 9 a.m. and #techradio at 3 p.m.
Q5) We all need support each and every day. Who do you think deserves the Oscar for "Best Supporting Tweep" and why? (Who has supported your growth on Twitter?) #nt2t
Good morning #nt2t family; jumping in late from TX ~ A2: We used @Flipgrid to tell the stories of the #Kindness Rocks in our Peace Garden; so much potential for student voice to be able to make these little video clips. https://t.co/albogySoHC
A5: Too many to name but @tamaraletter has been instrumental in furthering our daily #kindness campaign efforts! She's an expert and she's going to be writing the book on kindness. #nt2t
A4: If any of you teachers engage with international students who could do with some help with English and language, I'd recommend videos and webinars from @e2language. Some helpful articles as well. #nt2t
Well said! For those who stay mostly in education Twitter, I'd recommend Madalyn as a follow for Twitter advice in general. (Her #TwitterSmarter chat is Thursdays at 1 p.m. Eastern, admittedly not the best time for U.S. teachers. But she constantly shares on the hashtag.) #nt2t
Sorry #NT2t but I just can’t keep my eyes open anymore! “New baby” tiredness is kicking in :) have a great weekend everyone and stay connected! Thanks again to the whole #NT2t team - you inspire!
A5 Best Supporting Tweep has been @Carol_Stephen, host of #DigiBlogChat and Pinterest Queen, who's patient enough to answer the silliest questions. I know someone who's asked a few. #NT2t

Thanks again, Craig! Have I congratulated you? (Hard to keep track of all the new babies on here. I think you need your own chat. Say 3 a.m. local time?) #nt2t
Q6) Cinematography is what captures the look and feel of a movie and draws you into the story. Who would you give the "cinematography" Oscar for sharing class/school pics and videos? #nt2t

A6 Cinematography can include shooting your own stuff. In that vein, @MadalynSklar has promoted #VideoReplyDay to help people gain greater experience using video of themselves for online messages. #NT2t
Thanks for the shout-out, Barbara! I am SO excited to share all the great things our Kindness Cultivators are doing across the world! We have another news crew coming next week to chat - exciting times ahead! #nt2t#kindness
.@ToddWhitaker might as well be the Jimmy Stewart of education. Had the great honor to see him present to @arlingtonOCS in October. Folksy, charming, and brilliant.
Then @gcouros knocked it out of the park at @VASCD in November.
(I’ve had a good year for presentations!)
A6 - There is no way I could select a single one of all of my Rockstar teachers at all my schools! @keheleycougars in particular has SO many than use Twitter to showcase their amazing Ss on a daily basis! #keh4life#nt2t

Thanks. Really appreciate these answers as it's hard to moderate and answer everything too. Love to see great models of classroom and school sharing. #nt2t
