The true MAGIC of Twitter…
Today I have been on holiday with my girl in Wellington
for a girly time at WOW and shopping.
While we were brunching at Floriditas I received a tweet from Matt:
I checked the #INF536 trying to source my involvement and
it seems to be Masters Papers. And it seems to be something co-ordinated by
Ewan McIntosh.
Later in the day I was on Facebook and Shared a link from
Ewan McIntosh about 4 level questioning..
So, can you imagine my surprise when I walk into koru for
a brief stopover in Auckland before my flight to Tauranga when I see Ewan
Mcintosh… Feels kind of surreal to see someone you have been seeing online
during the day, face to face when I didn’t even know he was in the
country. Turns out he is flying to
Tauranga for the #nzlac14 New Zealand Literacy Association conference to
keynote and present.
We chatted over the link to my vimeo clip in Paper 6,
Primordial Spaces of his course. Very
surreal day eh!
As we chatted, we discovered that it really isn’t so
surreal. If you are connected and
networked, the chances of bumping into those you know are increased
significantly.
So, on the eve of Connected Educator Month I will spend
the day at Bethlehem College participating in #nzlac14
Let's see how many educators we can connect with and sweep into the MAGIC of #cenz14 Connected Educator Month!
