A2 I can't count how many times I preface an idea I share with "so I saw this on Twitter and..." #NoVAedchat

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2 I'd say the biggest thing I have learned is to JUST DO IT when I feel something needs to be done #NoVAedchat

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:18 PM EDT

If I have an idea, I shouldn't wait for permission to try it - take it to my pln and JUST DO IT! #novaedchat

A4 "how can twitter actually help me be a better teacher?" #NoVAedchat

KaitiBrideau Oct 18 @ 8:36 PM EDT

Hi! I'm Kaiti Brideau and I'm working to better understand my staff as professional learners and meet their PD needs. #NoVAedChat

jcjITRT51 Oct 18 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4: Challenge for Ts might be not having a Twitter account and/or what Twitter chats are. #NoVAedchat

techinteaching - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:37 PM EDT

Bahahaha #novaedchat

abctec Oct 18 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4: anti-social media or lack of time or not confident enough to share even though they are amazing #novaedchat

Q4: What might be a challenge that they could face in getting started? #NoVAedChat

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4 I remember being overwhelmed the 1st few times I was on twitter - def just lurked for a while #NoVAedchat

MrsGraceChoi Oct 18 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4 it's a little overwhelming at first! #NoVAedchat

A4 They may be uncomfortable of the unfamiliar? Would love to have a "face-to-face" #NoVAedchat night. Difficult on a Wed-school night!

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A4 really all it took was @mkgderose telling me to use twitter for pd - I'd do anything she tells me to do! #novaedchat

techinteaching - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A5: Being transparent about the uh-mazing stuff I get from my #PLN, & helping people with their first tweets. #NoVAedchat

techinteaching - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A4: I feel like Twitter can be intimidating for people that haven't tried it. I think people equivocate it to FB :( #NoVAedchat

KaitiBrideau Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1 I have always sat back and read through responses and this is my first true participation! It's a wealth of knowledge! #NoVAedChat

witmanedu Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A3: IMO the best reason to join is the ability to crowd source an idea. Have a question? Your #PLC is always there for help! #NoVAedchat

CharlesRandolp3 Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A4-Fear of trying something new or unknown. This is where an Edtech coach/ITRT can take the fear away for new Twitter chat members. #NoVAedChat

TechyMargaret - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Ooooooh I wonder if we can pull this off? Maybe have an earlier #NOVAedchat? A combination of HH/PubEDU

In reply to @KHale_RES

MsMucciolo Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A4 a chat can be a little overwhelming for first timers @MrsLauraMetz and I helped some awesome Ts last year during a PD sesh #NoVAedChat

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:38 PM EDT

yet the same folks who are often adverse to twitter are quite prolific on fb #NoVAedchat

A4: Twitter chats can be a stimulation overload at times. Especially more popular ones. Take it step by step. Lurk at first! #NoVAedchat

YES! Sometimes they move so fast. #novaedchat

I am in on this too! @KHale_RES I did this tonight during our class #TechYesPBL #novaedchat and it was set up help Ts lean about chats

@Tweetdeck is definitely my go-to. I just wish I could search GIFs in it! #novaedchat

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A5 did a #mvpyreschat in person w people at my school last year & it helped folks get the hang of it #NoVAedchat

KHale_RES Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A5 Modeling, showing @TweetDeck, #NoVAedchat nights (really into this idea right now @TechyMargaret). Everything is better with cheese.

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A5 - I love @MrHeronMU progression - sharing w people that they can start slow #NoVAedchat

KaitiBrideau Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A3 Opportunity to participate professional conversation around topics of interest to enable growth and new thinking #NoVAedchat

jcjITRT51 Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A5: Invite them to join you for a Twitter chat at a mutual location, maybe over a beverage or two and watch you. Then help them #NoVAedchat

acuteteacher Oct 18 @ 8:47 PM EDT

ugh RIGHT - I have to use my phone if I want to gif it up #novaedchat

MrTheodorouFCPS Oct 18 @ 8:49 PM EDT

A5: it’s natural to fear what we don’t understand. I’d invite people to participate and with them in-person. Show ‘em the ropes #novaedchat

witmanedu Oct 18 @ 8:50 PM EDT

A5: Starting small can help. Maybe show them how a twitter chat can work at a small conference or a district level training/PD #NoVAedchat

Bring folks to #EdcampNoVA! We can help them learn how to tweet there!! #NOVAEdchat 11/4 in Leesburg! https://t.co/fyRho3myfX

only hesitation on this one - if it's seen as a requirement, it might turn some folks off even more? #NoVAedchat

Oh no! I’m thinking more like an optional breakout session type thing. Agreed that requirement makes it seem like work. #novaedchat
