(This is more about me reflecting to learn, as opposed to sharing my learning so please excuse the length of the post.

I scan my twitter feed and have found my network (of 1,200+) to be incredibly good at uncovering stories and events of note and in real time. I use bundlr to organize the clips by month, display them on my site, and to share them publicly via my twitter account. All kudos to the edtech PR flacks who get their stories covered.

There are a lot of folks on the vendor floor at national conferences who will sell you products that supposedly personalize learning, and much of the buzz around something like Khan Academy is that it personalizes the learning for kids. That’s the model of personalization we want to see schools move toward.

This could be something to applied the idea of educators using Twitter. With the Twitter now implementing video in the service, it will be something that people will not only be open to learn, but I am sure will do interesting and new things with. For those reasons Twitter will never connect all educators.
