Just Jump In!

If you want to be listened to, you should put in time listening.
Marge Piercy

In her article, "Ten Tips for Becoming a Connected Educator," on the Edutopia website Elana Leoni offers this advice to educators wanting to get started in using social media...

"My friend Todd Hartley recently used a metaphor of a puppy getting loose for the first time to describe how people should use social media. When loose, the puppy jumps a fence and does not look back. No hesitation — it's running full speed to explore (and most likely get into trouble). That type of excitement and non-hesitation is needed if you're going to dive into social media and really experience it. Make those mistakes, listen, and reflect on how you can use all this to help you."
