Building a Professional Web Presence 

Picture
As teachers, we have many amazing opportunities to connect with other educators around the world via social media and blogs.  Teaching in isolation never has to be an option again!  Thanks to the amazing power of the web, all teachers can establish a professional web presence that will not only help connect them to other educators, but will also expose them to new pedagogy, technology, and #EduAwesome ideas that will transform their classrooms.
