A Principal's Reflections

AUGUST 15, 2012

I have been engaged with social media for over three and a half years now. As I often reflect on my journey, I can’t help but think about the early days and months after I first began to use Twitter and some other tools. Image credit: [link] Obviously I stuck with it and my life as a principal has never been the same.

When I first began my work researching and writing about social media, I considered myself an ambitious cheerleader – maybe even a hype woman – for campuses to adopt the latest digital communication tools to better tell their stories and connect with students. But adoption does not equal impact.
