@NatGeo Fascinating article. Will keep mental note to teach my kids about fossil fuels in future.

Exploring Real World Energy Transformations https://t.co/G7wHxd3NoJ via @TeachingChannel great lesson and delivery

Create curriculum that require students to think in order to get anywhere, solve a problem, arrive at some conclusion. And then help them towards the answers by asking questions, not giving answers. #edchat #currichat https://t.co/FS2Kmgl0g0

Waterline by @desmos is awesome! Too bad I don't teach math! https://t.co/UEtlVRfjq5

@woutgeo Ayo but why didn't you use Waterline?? The closest cousin to Swan's bottles task! https://t.co/600S9T8vDK

A5: Spend no more than 15-20 minutes a day on your PLN, expanding it and checking out new ideas. Then you'll always be up-to-date but not overwhelmed. Also, follow folks that inspire you!!! #cuin7303

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

@TheMrClason Good point. It takes effort and commitment. Usually the best accounts to follow are those that are constantly being updated. #cuin7303

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

They should add a "Nailed it!" Feature as well 😋 But this can help better streamline your searches for workable resources. @Pinterest #CUIN7303 @susiegronseth https://t.co/mrAfB4x6Ij

[Susie Gronseth @susiegronseth]

@ItsMsPruitt .@Pinterest now has a "Tried It" feature. This makes it possible to search for teaching ideas that have been tried by other Ts. #CUIN7303

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

@susiegronseth @mscyrtx #cuin7303 When I hear the word "network", I think digital age, technology-never-sleeps online communication and collaboration. So perhaps that's where the difference lies. PLC is in-person, smaller scale, one meeting at a time.

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

@ItsMsPruitt Totally agreed! TpT has so many resources and is itself a PLN to explore. #cuin7303

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

A4: On Twitter, @Mr_DDHarris is a great source of inspiration and wisdom! I've already learned so much from him - ie how to fund projects through @Donorschoose, reminders to do engineering STEM projects in my science classroom, etc. Check him out! #cuin7303

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

A3: Educators learn from others by engaging with their PLNs. They can share ideas, get feedback and support, debate a topic, see other perspectives. #cuin7303

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

A2: A PLN is a proactive effort on my part to get connected with fellow educators and stakeholders in education to grow my teaching practice #CUIN7303

#2: Don't tell students what they should know; create the structure for them to experience it on their own https://t.co/tfbFC7u7nP #edchat

[sciencelandia @myscienceland]

First time hearing about @DonorsChoose! Great for classrooms that are in need of the funding for STEM learning to happen. Thanks for sharing, @Mr_DDHarris https://t.co/2MVuWTHevA
