Hi Aaron,
What will be different in this session, versus Using Social Media in PD at 12:45?
Thanks
Hi Diane–the Social Media in PD session will focus more on specific ways you can use social media to aid in PD, such as ways to legally get materials for presentations, ways to share your materials, and ways to communicate outside of the classroom. This session will cover other social media tools but not focus strictly on PD–in other words, we’ll be talking about ways we use social media to stay informed and organized ourselves, not necessarily as PDers but as citizens/scholars/etc. Does that clarify things? Hope to see you at one or both of these sessions.
Aaron
Aaron,
Thanks a lot for explaining the difference. it sounds like a good session.
Diane
PS–if we get everything done in time, we’re going to share our slides ahead of time on Slideshare.net and on our blog, so you can decide ahead of time if it’s a discussion you’d like to be part of.

Dear Aaron,
Thanks for your part in the Strengthening Your SIM Core today! I plan to attend the sessions tomorrow that you will conduct, too. I am wondering about the SIM Facebook thing and the SIM Twitter thing that was mentioned some time ago….it might be related to Jim Knight’s Instructional Coaching work…I’m not sure. I really would like to ask if that is anything that can be mentioned or resourced too? My daughter insisted I set up a Facebook page which I thought would be professional, but now it is full of grandbaby pictures PLUS some of her friends friended me, so it’s not too professional anymore. : ) So, I need some help rethinking this in the context of my work. Can we touch on any of that while we are here?
Thanks!
Mandy
Hi Mandy–definitely! Facebook has a robust set of privacy filters for doing just that. We’ll spend some time talking about that.
