I stay current by using social media. Social media isn’t always a bad thing if it
is used correctly. On twitter this week
we did an assignment asking us to follow professionally appropriate
accounts. These accounts included
educational, news channels, teachers, and so much more. This allowed me to understand new techniques
that are erupting throughout the schools and educational programs. They give us updates on new websites and
accounts that we can use with our students.
Using technology in the right way and taking advantage of it, can be
extremely beneficial to not only the teachers but the students as well. Using sites such as Pinterest can help you
with lesson plans or ideas for crafts.
Pinterest is one of my favorite social media accounts; I use it for so
many things. It helps me think of who I
am as a person and the teacher I am becoming by the things I pin on the
account. I have found so many creative
ideas that I am excited to use next year when I will be making lesson plans for
my field placement. It will also be a
great resource to use when I am officially a teacher in a school with my
students.
