“Returning a call from a teacher may very well be a very low priority when you're not sure if you have enough money to pay for food for your family,” @Larryferlazzo tells @MackenzieMays. https://t.co/qUhSv27gvF

Blackboard is my nemesis. That’s it. That’s the whole tweet.

@positiveupside Fantastic idea!

Thinking about helping my grad ESL Ss get convo practice w/native spkrs. Will have Zoom small group sessions, office hours w/me. Continuing weekly lunch convo group on Zoom (usually 1-2 Ts+Ss). Ideas for interaction with other native spkrs? Majority of f/t Ss here are int'l.

@DrSamiSchalk @acaguy (Calling myself out, too; it’s easy for me to fall into the trap of following up saying that my child is autistic with all the talents he has. Yes, he has some amazing skills, but his worth comes from his humanity, not his abilities.)

[Kelly Tracy @KellyMTracy]

@DrSamiSchalk @acaguy These stories always make feel icky because the underlying message is that disabled savants are the only disabled people worth celebrating. They’re ALL children of God, including but not limited to this musician.

@michaelegriffin I tweeted about the article that I had written about how academics use Twitter to promote their work; it was very meta.

I am presenting to student teachers today and want to share the power of using Twitter for PD with them. What is the best idea you ever learned through a Twitter connection, Twitter chat, etc.? Share with us using #SerendipityEDU
