Twitter Continuum

Where are you?

I accept my role / hope others experiment and find their comfort zone.

Twitter = Empower

What drives you?
My goal today is to provide a a different "flavor" to education.

I want to share with you a tool that can enhance your pedagogy, invigorate your career, become "game changing."

Twitter empowers its users.

What drives you?

What can take you to the next level?

Twitter can help guide / drive / empower you to your next level of teaching.
