This is the idea behind the "Connected Educator" movement. Expand your knowledge, grow your expertise, and meet some of the greatest thinkers and artists in the field of education. We can all glean great ideas from each other, all you need to do is find a way to connect with them. Then begin sharing lessons, ideas, passions, infographics, websites, apps, concerns and questions on how to improve the most important job ever. Join me in embracing the digital age and becoming a "Connected Educator" this year. Try it for just 30 days, but make sure to embrace it and give it an honest effort. If you are fearful, grab a colleagues hand and bring them along on the journey and see what you can learn together.

Great post, Tom! I am planning on sharing this with my team. You made the argument for becoming a Connected Educator in a very real way, which I think will make sense to my team. Keep 'em coming!
