#ALedchat is a weekly chat on Twitter about education topics. It is held each Monday from 9-10pmCST. While the discussion on #ALedchat continues on Twitter well beyond our weekly one-hour chat session, this platform affords us the opportunity to extend, expand and share the conversation with an even greater audience. Educators from across the state of Alabama, and the world, can come here to find encouragement, support, resources, professional growth opportunities and advice, while providing the same to their colleagues.
A3: It’s impossible to collaborate if you don’t communicate. Communication needs to focus on the positive and what can be done, not a gripe session for what should be that’s not. Voxer has been an excellent vehicle for collaboration for me. #aledchat
A5: Easy...practice what you preach. Respect is earned. We must be respectful of others, agree or disagree, before we can expect their respective in return. #aledchat
A5: I’ve found that people are less negative around people who are genuinely happy to be doing what they’re doing. And sometimes you just have to walk away. #aledchat
A6: ooohhh. Good one... isn't this what we're all doing right now in order to become more effective communicators, educators, and collaborators. #Edchats . Invite others 😊 #aledchat
A6: I’ll stay for coffee 😎. As a T, not an admin, I wouldn’t call what I do encouraging as much as hounding my colleagues to collaborate with me. Sorry, guys. I need y’all...a lot. Once you find your people, collaboration just becomes fun. #aledchat
FA: It really doesn't matter as long as they pick one. Having to hunt through multiple resources to find information would be ineffective. We use Google Drive. #aledchat
