When Mr. Smith told us that we would be using a social network such as Twitter in our Secondary Education class, I had to pinch myself to make sure that I wasn't dreaming. Who could ever think that a teacher would encourage their students to use a social networking account in a classroom environment. I remember being yelled at in high school for finding a way to access Facebook during school. Now, I had been asked to make a Twitter account, follow five educators in my field as well as students in my major. This was unreal.

And even though this seemed a little far fetched, there had to be a reason behind Mr. Smith asking us to do all these things. The more I thought about it, the more I came to a better understanding of his intentions. Our world is becoming global and for teachers/potential teachers, like myself, we must use that to our advantage. By following educators in my field, a whole new world opens up for me. Not only can I learn from them, but I can also discover many new things about my major that I had never thought about before. I'm excited to learn what I can from people who are already in the field. And I will try to use this social network to the best of my ability so that I can become a more well-rounded, potential teacher in the process.
