Periscope is Awesome! Apparently, I Needed Another Addiction...

Hey everyone,

Summer holidays have always been a time of renewal, relaxation and growth. Some years, it took me 1 week to "decompress" and sometimes it took most of the summer. This year, I did a "Brain Dump" a few days after school was done that included successes, areas for growth and interesting observations. I will do a post on this as it was really helpful for me to decompress and be ready to relax and enjoy the holiday. However, I was still not ready to do housework...


One of my goals for the summer was to reconnect on Twitter with other educators. I was actively involved on Twitter when I was writing educational policy, but I wanted a fresh start as many of my contacts were political and academic and not as many were frontline educators. So I launched a new account based on this blog and I was back on the bike.



So many great educators to learn from! After I followed a whole bunch of people and engaged in some conversations, I watched a few Periscope videos. For those that don't know, Periscope is used for making videos and broadcasting them live. Think Google Hangouts broadcast to a larger audience and easier. Here is a Periscope video that describes Periscope:

Me, share my opinions and ideas with others? No, I'm a little shy... Okay, I call BS on myself. This sounds great!! Tell me in the comments or on Twitter some topics that I should use for future Periscopes!

Later,
ST
