“Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” ― Mark Twain
I love learning. I try to learn something new every day. My constant scanning of Twitter and other PLN's are a one way I learn but truly my students are the most fearless humans I know. Just follow their lead.
My PLNs - Personal Learning Network
These people and places have helped me live, learn, expand and grow in my knowledge of technology and the love of teaching.

Joining Twitter has been the biggest PLN movement I have made. I joined several years ago but at a conference two years ago - I learned who to follow - how to use Twitter chats - and in general expand my learning to global size.
I follow the following people and hashtags for most of my learning-
@tsuejohnson - awesome teacher and very inspiring colleague
@alicekeeler - Google goddess - so many Google tips!
@kathyschrock - SAMR model guru - how can I make good better!
@awelcome co-author of @KidsDeserveIt - the most inspirational book I have ever read
educational chats - pick a day and an hour and expand your knowledge
