Everyone these days seems to be using Twitter, from the President of the United States to your neighbor to your classmates from way back when.

For educators, Twitter can be a distraction or a gold mine of resources. You can send direct messages to other teachers or experts, join in on #edchat, which takes place Tuesdays from noon to 1 p.m. and from 8-9 p.m., or add plugins like Grammarly and check your writing or grammar.

The school management software company Fedena has put together a handy, helpful graphic that offers 26 effective ways to use Twitter for teachers and educators. The items are listed from A to Z. At least a few of these should prove helpful for teachers looking for inspiration, resources or just a sounding board.
