An excellent interactive network
where Educators can share, learn and connect with one another. I was very hesitant about creating a Twitter account as I was not familiar with this type of 'short' (limited to approx 75 words per post) RSS feed but am very glad I decided to dive into the professional world of Twitter.

Sharing Documents electronically is efficient and effective. I have used Google-Docs to collaborate on group projects and anticipate using this in my professional career in sharing lesson plans, documenting meeting notes, etc. There is nothing worse than leaving a meeting with everyone thinking/concluding something different!
1. Google Docs
2. Google Apps
Alberta has been a leader in the area of video conferencing and continues
to be today. Video conferencing simply uses interactive devices such as a laptop computer with a camera and a microphone and vice versa on the other side. Used for collaboration between remote areas, conferences internationally and even for whole class instruction. Alberta Education provides support for teachers in integrating video conferencing.
Voice Thread
A great resource to support collaboration within schools, within districts and even within Alberta! Voice Thread enables group conversations around images, documents and videos. Don't limit voice thread to your professional life only, Voice Thread can be used to share things with parents, and is easy enough that students can create their own projects using voice thread.
For some examples of student projects, check out these Voice Threads.
