Wondering who is being weird tonight. Waving from Chicago's NW side where it's pouring. #weirded

Welcome to #WeirdEd. Tonight we’re shouting over each other to get the perfect picture on the red carpet of teaching https://t.co/3KKMFczokg

#WeirdEd If you need to remember your lines, they’re here- https://t.co/b2uYsJ36QQ

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:02 PM EDT

Teaching has a red carpet? If it does, that's a mistake. #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:02 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Before we start let’s introduce ourselves and say what famous person is the best at being a famous person.

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:02 PM EDT

#weirded Hello! B4 I get started, pls support @BloomingtonBFT in their ongoing contract issue #AllInForAllStudents

MViTDiTeach May 25 @ 10:03 PM EDT

Dianne, CA, 4/5 T, Prob the Kardashians, as I don't see them as doing anything worthy of being famous #weirded

BSGSCSFoster May 25 @ 10:03 PM EDT

#weirded Lindsay Foster, 6th grade ELAR, Fort Worth, TX - Kermit the Frog is best at being a frog

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:03 PM EDT

@nathan_stevens @TheWeirdTeacher That would definitely be more fun #weirdEd

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:04 PM EDT

@MViTDiTeach #WeirdEd So they are the best at it bc they shouldn't be? Interesting.

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:04 PM EDT

#weirded I've done pretty much all my volunteer @ Bloomington District, so I'm very much invested Anyway

korytellers May 25 @ 10:04 PM EDT

Kory, Innovations Teacher from MN. Since I am from MN I'm gonna go with #weirded https://t.co/8ucjeXiNta

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:04 PM EDT

What celebrity is good at being a celebrity? Drawing a blank. #weirded

MViTDiTeach May 25 @ 10:04 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher Yup. Pretty good to be famous with doing anything at all. Harder to get good at something first. #weirded

brentrschmidt May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Brent Schmidt, Winnipeg, MB, Canada. Jimmy Fallon. Just seems nice. And he impersonates celebs well. #WeirdEd

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

#WeirdEd I think Clooney is the best at being Famous. Or Bill Murray or Tom Hanks. Not in the news all the time, but MASSIVE

RLTaylor94 May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

#weirdEd Gina from Cincy. New to the chat! I would say Adele is the best because she is so humble! Tom Hanks is #2 for similar reasons.

korytellers May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

@nathan_stevens No. @TheWeirdTeacher @pernilleripp #Weirded

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Ooh anyone that has done nothing meaningful #weirdEd

MViTDiTeach May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

@MViTDiTeach @TheWeirdTeacher Oops, without doing anything at all. #weirded

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Hi #weirded I obviously need no introduction (my name appears next to the message) and what qualifies as good at being famous?

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

#weirded How are y'all? Thomas Mision, ElemEduStu in College. Id say Emma Watson, B&B Trailer just beat Force Awakens 24 hr view record

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

@brentrschmidt #WeirdEd Gotta admit, Fallon bugs me. I always hated that he'd break during every SNL sketch.

jenfromri - Moderator May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Jenny, HS science from RI. I was going say Kardashians too - they seem to have nailed the Business of Famous. #weirded

GeoJo22 May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Joanne from Missouri. Teacher of social studies to middle schoolers who all want to be famous when they grow up. Taylor Swift #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:05 PM EDT

@RLTaylor94 #WeirdEd Hanks is the best!

brentrschmidt May 25 @ 10:06 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher I can see that. He almost ruined the Welshley Arms Hotel skit with the Hottub. #weirded

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:06 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher all great choices, Matt Damon is a good one too #weirded

korytellers May 25 @ 10:06 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Q1 What makes someone edu-famous?

andrewmead73 May 25 @ 10:08 PM EDT

#weirded Andy from Manitoba... missed the first question!

RLTaylor94 May 25 @ 10:08 PM EDT

Ss today truly feel their fame will come from Youtube, a decade ago it was sports #weirded https://t.co/7kee2BDfLB

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:08 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher @pernilleripp I think there is an #edchat clique that represents that #WeirdEd

calliembush May 25 @ 10:09 PM EDT

Callie, MN, teaching Social Justice via Science. Best at being famous? Anyone who uses their fame to make things better for others. #WeirdEd

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:09 PM EDT

@BSGSCSFoster @nathan_stevens #WeirdEd Oh man, now there's glitter all over the chat. It's never going to come out.

Nate. 6th grade science. GA. #weirded

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:10 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher A1 it used to be writing a book but seems like anyone can do that now. #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:10 PM EDT

@doodlinmunkyboy #WeirdEd You're not wrong though. That's the best way to have the time to get your name spread

oJaison May 25 @ 10:10 PM EDT

Jaison from Houston. Maybe Queen Latifah is best at being famous? Reasonable level, still fairly private, seems happy. #WeirdEd

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:10 PM EDT

@RLTaylor94 I just had this convo with my husband last night - strange how it is YouTube now #weirdEd

MViTDiTeach May 25 @ 10:10 PM EDT

doodlinmunkyboy May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

A1: in my heart, they're part of a community, and about the work... supporting the craft and the people doing the work. #WeirdEd

andrewmead73 May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

Any of the Baldwins. #weirded

calliembush May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

@korytellers you spelled yes wrong #weirded

AWuerfele May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

#weirdEd Adam, Nebraska. I like Ben Folds, he's also weird, but too cool to care.

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

Edu-famous...two different versions I feel; follower count or impact - they don't always correlate #weirdEd

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

A1 Having a following like Alfie Kohn. Near as I know he never interacts with anyone, but a lot listen. #weirded

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:11 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher @pernilleripp I know. #Weirded https://t.co/Nv0ZcSKCzE

GeoJo22 May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 Edu- famous? Requires self-promotion and adoring fans. That's not necessarily bad. Depends on what they are famous for. #weirded

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

#weirded A1.Well, wait, what kinda edu-famous? The one that talks after like, what 1 yr of teach. exp. like that certain book guy?

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Q1 Clarification- In your head, you know ppl who are Edufamous. Why did you label them like that?

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

@nathan_stevens @TheWeirdTeacher Fairly certain that when I was allowed to write a book it should have all stopped #weirdEd

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 I think it requires a kilt and blue hair... #weirded

RLTaylor94 May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 Creative, fresh ideas for old problems can lead to 15 minutes of fame. Have to be able to ride the cycles of education to last #weirded

oolalume May 25 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 Someone whose work influences a T to spread it at their school #weirded

A1: to be edufamous, you must have a fresh look on the art of teaching, make us feel good, and inspire. #weirded

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher being moron on Twitter and posting funny gifs. Hi mirror #WeirdEd https://t.co/2WrDBGmNKF

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

@calliembush #WeirdEd That would be a good way to get edufamous.

doodlinmunkyboy May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

@pernilleripp It's ripples right. Those are two ways to be big stones thrown in the pond of education. #WeirdEd #ThankYouCaptainAnalogy

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

#weirded A1. Some1 whose own work inspires/innovates/makes noise but to the betterment of Ss, not to their detriment

oJaison May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

A1: But seriously, I think the edu-famous are people who put stuff out that's then used/repeated widely in classrooms. #WeirdEd

andrewmead73 May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

A1. They are influencers. Out to make things better (generally). Good thinkers and sharers. #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:13 PM EDT

@GeoJo22 #WeirdEd Are you suggesting some have adoring fans who might be wrong to adore them?

A1: a large proportion of educators know who they are by name. May not know much about them, but know the name #weirded

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:14 PM EDT

A1 The educators I consider edufamous are ones who nurture others. Listen to others. Aren't interested in cliques. #weirded

#weirded A1. Also ppl I like to see as Edufamous speaks w/ sincere passion for Ss & education

brentrschmidt May 25 @ 10:15 PM EDT

@doodlinmunkyboy True. So if you believe it, you wanna share it. But I can't see how you can't come back to a class to stay "legit" #WeirdEd

AWuerfele May 25 @ 10:15 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A1: Edu-famous, when you no longer have to grovel for new tech in your classroom and still not get it.

RLTaylor94 May 25 @ 10:15 PM EDT

Unfortunately, branding is a huge part of it. #weirded https://t.co/IrMmZmHoXn

Bothers me in general that we have things like the BAMMIES. Recognize good educators, but don't turn into celebrities. #weirded

oJaison May 25 @ 10:18 PM EDT

A1: I think edu-famous also means your voice is distinct in some way, even if your content may not be original. #WeirdEd

LTaylorELA May 25 @ 10:18 PM EDT

@doodlinmunkyboy @pernilleripp I agree with this #weirded

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:18 PM EDT

@doodlinmunkyboy Agreed, I get being excited about your own ideas but not excluding other great ideas #weirdEd

  A1: Branding your teaching style so others want to try it. And maybe a shtick or two... #WeirdEd

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:19 PM EDT

@andrewmead73 Not necessarily, I think it depends on the intentions #weirdEd

LTaylorELA May 25 @ 10:19 PM EDT

baritoneblogger May 25 @ 10:19 PM EDT

#WeirdEd I love we are starting to honor greatness. Teaching is so egalitarian. It's like we refuse to say some Ts are better than others.

@pernilleripp I know. #WeirdEd https://t.co/4X54dtuZ0e

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:20 PM EDT

@vickiemorgado1 #weirded HUGE part of it. Esp. in Edu field. Being fake does more harm than good to every1 including Ss

jenfromri - Moderator May 25 @ 10:20 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher It's hard to pin down. Branding feels more cynical & planned out; unique voice just feels natural. #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:20 PM EDT

@brentrschmidt #WeirdEd I think it's because Shtick as Marketing is bad, but Shtick as Who I Am isn't.

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:20 PM EDT

Oh and also there's no awards for parenting SpEd kids or parenting in general. Yet it's one of the toughest jobs. #weirded

AustinELA8 May 25 @ 10:20 PM EDT

#WeirdEd most become edufamous because they share their passion openly. People follow those that inspire them.

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:20 PM EDT

It is like Doug and I met in person last year and he said I was as crazy as he thought I would be @TheWeirdTeacher #weirded

@pernilleripp makes it easier to get swag for my edcamps. Being able to throw out this and that helps a lot #weirdEd

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:23 PM EDT

@AustinELA8 Yeah. Teachers are not doing this to be celebrities. But because they want to make a difference. #weirded

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

@oJaison hey, no quote there? now your getting into the edufamous slighting of the nonedufamous issue! #weirded

GruntledChalkie May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

@MissShuganah Sometimes young people relate to negative teachers. then the S matures but the T doesn't #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

@baritoneblogger #WeirdEd Oh man do I have Thoughts on the Bammys. That's a clique and popularity contest worse than high school was.

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

@baritoneblogger @TheWeirdTeacher Bammy means nothing #Weirded

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie Me, too. A couple of long stories. But actually good memories. #weirded

melsa777 May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

I feel some edufamous peeps are rude and think their poo doesn't stink. We all started at the same place...a classroom of kids! #WeirdEd

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

@MrsL_Teaches G'night! Hope you had an awesome #weirded time

TeacherWithTuba May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher Admin seems to value different qualities in who they see as edu famous than the people I admire #WeirdEd

doodlinmunkyboy May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

I used vehemently. Proud of that one. #WeirdEd

pernilleripp May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

Thank you for the chat #weirdEd - my eyes are bleary and I no longer make sense

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

@btcostello05 Gotcha. And you make a very good point. #weirded

scottmckay_com May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

B4 teaching I was a bday clown. It was a convenient fame in that the makeup and costume could come off, we're Ts 24/7 #weirded

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

@shadow_uzumaki @oJaison @korytellers just share what you learn, don't be afraid to tell them where you got it, you'll find people #weirded

AWuerfele May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A5: TBH, I think we all want to make a difference, and maybe comparing ourselves to others we feel we aren't doing enough.

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher who gets nervous? I will talk to most people #WeirdEd https://t.co/lCzyR0OfOy

mrgfactoftheday May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

A5 - I get nervous to meet anyone because I'm socially awkward. I'm nervous even if I've met you 30 times #weirded https://t.co/5QgOXx5g4f

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:53 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Q5 It's weird that we get nervous to meet certain teachers, right? Why do we do that?

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:54 PM EDT

#weirded A5. In my case, I compare my relative lack of experience to their bountiful Lvl 100 ArchTeacher exp

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@nathan_stevens #WeirdEd We're different. I don't think think we can pronounce shy.

scmaestra May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

Q5. Because we loooooove them so much and don't want to seem like the awkward introvert we are. #WeirdEd #speakingformyself

AustinELA8 May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

#weirded To me @robertjmarzano and Rick Dufour EDUGIANTS! But I've met people that don't keno them.

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@MissShuganah of course I do! lol even if I didn't necessarily make it well #weirded

mathtans May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A2, Teacher fame good because... actually, no idea. More pull in dept budget? Bad because expectations, pressures.

mrterborg May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher Because it's Weird? :) (Sorry, had to chime in.) #weirded

Catherine_D2013 May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher I went to an #edcamp once& Saw someone I greatly admired on Twitter. Couldn't go up & talk to him. Too nervous #weirded

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie Yeah. Even when my mom was in rehab after a fall, students recognized her. Was great to see. #weirded

doodlinmunkyboy May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

If you actually buy into this idea of "Edu-fame", that actually doesn't help create change/opportunities or close any gaps #WeirdEd

I don't know if I could say all edufamous types are reliable- they are good at communicating? @DonWettrick #weirded https://t.co/mfIbvGPlP7

scottmckay_com May 25 @ 10:33 PM EDT

A1 they are a reliable source for new ways of thinking #weirded @TheWeirdTeacher

AWuerfele May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A5: (cont'd) but what is enough? There's always one more thing to do, which is why my classroom looks the way it does.

scottmckay_com May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

A5 it's awe of those who contrib2 who we r. Just as powerful as the fear of 'other' #weirded @TheWeirdTeacher

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher I see people as people. If they don't want to talk, here is a tack they can sit on #WeirdEd

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@baritoneblogger #WeirdEd Huh?

korytellers May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@mrgfactoftheday Evenme, Josh? #Weirded

@doodlinmunkyboy Good point. Stay relevant to the classroom and bldg and support our Ts & Ss. #weirded

GruntledChalkie May 25 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@MissShuganah cut off Prime Minister's car, sat next to a famous footballer at a John Mellencamp concert #weirded

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:56 PM EDT

@DrTimony That's very irritating. I prefer humble. #weirded

oJaison May 25 @ 10:56 PM EDT

@pernilleripp talk to up you later #weirded

FarleyJeffrey May 25 @ 10:56 PM EDT

How many people need to know who you are before you're considered #edufamous? #WeirdEd

jenfromri - Moderator May 25 @ 10:56 PM EDT

@mrgfactoftheday Sounds about right. #weirded

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:56 PM EDT

Let's be honest. Most #edufamous folks are full of soup. Right? #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@FarleyJeffrey #WeirdEd That's what we're trying to figure out!

brentrschmidt May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

A5: Being "star-struck" is a spectrum. It's when our body must fight the urge to ruin a relationship with a respected person. #WeirdEd

CoachCLN May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

A5- Not sure I have. I like to go right up to them and give thanks for the support they given me in my class- well after the hello #weirded

MissShuganah May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie Yeah. Can be quite a let down. #weirded

mathtans May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A2.5, I can see dangerous. Maybe conflicts with personal life too, or wanting to be famous for other things.

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@ohsoearly @korytellers @GruntledChalkie @BSGSCSFoster #weirded YES

scmaestra May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@shadow_uzumaki Aw, thanks, Thomas! YOU rock! #WeirdEd

oolalume May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

You know you're edufamous when your #weirded chat gets spambot Tweets

mrgfactoftheday May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@korytellers nobody is immune...maybe family. I think I'm okay around family. Sometimes I get nervous to talk to colleagues #weirded

btcostello05 May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@oJaison it is something the edufamous have often done, then everyone assumes it was theirs all along! are you stealing my edufame! #weirded

nathan_stevens May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@melsa777 true dat #weirded

GruntledChalkie May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

A5) Teaching is a very solitary job. Getting opinions or ideas from others is nerve racking #weirded

shadow_uzumaki May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@RafranzDavis #weirded But cant it shine light on where its needed? Tough part is having ppl in power actually commit to action

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:57 PM EDT

@brentrschmidt #WeirdEd I'm with you here. I get it on twitter too. "Oh man, this person seems so smart and they're gonna think I'm lame."

andrewmead73 May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

A5. Kids are star struck when they see their teacher, in jeans, in the mall, on a Saturday. Same reasons. #weirded

RafranzDavis May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

A5 It's always kind of weird/scary when meeting new people...especially those who have impacted you so much #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

@brentrschmidt #WeirdEd Then I go anyway bc that's who I am. But the thought is still there.

@TheWeirdTeacher @brentrschmidt And then the words. won't. work talky talky *runs away* #weirded

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

@baritoneblogger #WeirdEd OHHHHH, gotcha! We forgot the TEDtalk level of fame.

doodlinmunkyboy May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

A5: I always feel incredibly awkward telling someone I love their work. I mean, I fanboy away, but it feels so derpy! #WeirdEd

mathtans May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A3, Doubt students know in broader sense; depends on how much local attention. Even TEDx maybe not. So seems like wouldn't impact?

TeacherWithTuba May 25 @ 10:58 PM EDT

@baritoneblogger @TheWeirdTeacher Yes, when you have the biopic like @ronclarkacademy that is another league of edu fame. #WeirdEd

@korytellers @btcostello05 @oJaison #weirded Yep. I'll find ppl to gather into our twitter circles someday. Just gotta share your wisdom
