This week, I reached to two of my PLN contacts in my school, Don Sturm and Courtney Eddleman, and I asked them to recommend some good Live Twitter Chats. Don tweeted me back and tagged a couple hashtags (#formativechat and #XPLAP). Within a couple minutes, two of the hosts of these Twitter Chats had followed me and personally invited me to join! This was a big relief. I feel like a new kid walking into the cafeteria at lunch on the first day of school; I have no idea where to go, so it was very nice to feel warmly invited.
To prepare myself for participating in one of these, I watched this helpful YouTube video on how to join and participate in a Twitter Chat. Maybe you'll find this helpful too.
