Ready to start off the 2018-2019 school year with a Professional Learning Network (PLN) of highly recommended educators from around the world? Crowd-sourced and set to go, we’ve curated a list of highly recommended educators to follow as shared by educators just like you! In a matter of 60 minutes this past week in the #whatisschool Twitter chat, we asked classroom teachers, administrators, tech coaches, librarians, and more to share individuals that positively influence and inform practice and that make a difference in education through their work and support within our PLN. A special thank you for Jen Williams and Participate for putting this together so quickly – they are absolute superstars!
So, time to get following to grow your network and your learning with our 400 Educators to Follow on Twitter: Crowd-Sourced List for Educators by Educators as curated from the August 2, 2018 chat: Educators Best Resources = Relationships: A Special Build-Your-PLN #whatisschool Chat.

I have a busy feed @jimlerman; it covers teachers & teaching, pedagogy, educator resources, leadership, K-20 issues, teaching of writing, and creativity. Over 35,000 people in my networks across social media.
Great list, thank you! I wish you had included Teacher Librarians, who are (hopefully!) a future ready ed tech, literacy, curating, & research resource for every teacher in every school! But may just be my bias showing! Cheers!
Hi Gwyneth – I agree, however it is not a list created by me – it was a curated list from our Twitter chat and the headings were our question starters. I would love to feature a post that we could co-construct, highlighting the amazing teacher-librarians around the globe? Feel free to reach out

Language Acquisition/World Languages is a strong category that should be included.
Please add Jennifer Dean @Miss_Dean to ed tech. She provides excellent school leadership in tech and gets her first graders and fellow teachers utilizing it!
You should add to inspiration and school culture by adding Jennifer Eyre. Her twitter handle is @PassionateEDU. She is an awesome educational leader and has inspired me for a very long time!
We need a world language section! LOTE!
