On this Thanksgiving weekend I find myself thankful for many things: my family, friends, health,coworkers and the opportunity to be a student. One of the greatest gifts I have taken away from #eci831 is the power of Twitter. I am not sure about anyone else but I feel empowered when someone I respect retweets a tweet that I thought was important. Being a teacher can be a lonely and isolating profession. Twitter provides an opportunity to have your voice heard by people near and far. When I get a retweet from Todd Parr or other people I respect I feel validated. I am thankful for this validation.
