Follow me on Twitter. It's become a standard phrase – one we see just about everywhere, on a daily basis. Twitter is getting harder and harder to ignore — and for good reason. The truth is, Twitter is an incredibly powerful tool that can connect you instantly to others — locally or halfway across the globe. Educators are discovering that Twitter can be an indispensable learning and professional development tool!
