Many educators are using Twitter to communicate and share teaching ideas, strategies and tips. Here's one teacher's story on [using twitter to create a Professional Learning Network](https://facingtoday.facinghistory.org/twitter-and-your-pln-one-teachers-story) (PLN). A PLN becomes a resource educators can utilize for feedback, questions and conversations from other educators around the world. #STMathChat provides a digital space and time for educators to connect and share with other educators who are also using ST Math. We're building a community to discuss everything from definitions of current buzz words to actionable tips teachers can implement in their classroom tomorrow. January's chat questions ranged from "What is blended learning?" to "How do ST Math and other resources support creating an ideal blended learning environment?" Here's some of the highlights from these questions: > I think blended learning is when technology has purpose. It's not 20 minutes of isolated computer games. Connections.
