Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:03:50 RT @angelos_bollas: @Marisa_C @JoHart Easy answer! They should join #ELTchat :) #ELTchat > Indeed! One of the ways
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:04:25 @angelos_bollas @Marisa_C @JoHart Yes, indeed. #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:04:36 yes join #eltchat - but if nqt may not even tweet so neet to learn how to e-chat . Need mentors also!
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:04:39 Are any of you newly qualified or will u be carrying info back into staffrooms & training classrooms? #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:04:43 Hello #eltchat. By chance free at this hour, so will join for a while.
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:05:06 Getting out of one's classroom is the first step, for me - Joining staff rooms, online groups, etc. discussing about teaching. #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:05:10 RT @JoHart: yes join #eltchat - but if nqt may not even tweet so neet to learn how to e-chat . Need mentors also!
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:05:38 @JoHart very true - learning who to follow and how to pick quite important #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:06:30 @angelos_bollas any notable groups you would recommend? #eltchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:06:36 @Marisa_C not newly qualified but will be "carrying" hopefully - work a lot with Pre- and In-service teachers here #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:06:45 @olyaelt lovely #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:07:15 RT @Marisa_C: @JoHart very true - learning who to follow and how to pick quite important #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:08:01 @Marisa_C @JoHart #eltchat and how to decide which info is most relevant to you... so much info on twitter - can be overwhelming
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:08:41 @Marisa_C this is a link for new twitter users - people to follow on twitter: https://t.co/6IccnObYTg #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:08:56 So some suggestions about how to curate this vast amount of information - e,g, bookmarking tools, pinterest and more relevant #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:09:04 @EdLaur @Marisa_C #eltchat follow relevant lists & use #tags - I teach this in PD with new colleagues
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:09:11 RT @angelos_bollas: @Marisa_C this is a link for new twitter users - people to follow on twitter: https://t.co/6IccnObYTg #ELTchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:09:21 @ElisabethHorn1 join us on #eltchat if you're free now
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:09:33 @EdLaur @Marisa_C @JoHart I think you are right.  I think time is important and also guidance on reading of useful journals #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:09:35 RT @JoHart: @EdLaur @Marisa_C #eltchat follow relevant lists & use #tags - I teach this in PD with new colleagues
olyaelt 2015-02-25T12:09:39 https://t.co/SdfbMRrcy7 on Facebook is also an amazing resource. #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:10:04 @Marisa_C #eltchat Symbaloo & Diigo work well Symbaloo especially with visual learners
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:10:18 @angelos_bollas @Marisa_C Good idea. I have a list for #AusELT but too big - a 'starter PLN' list is great. #ELTchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:10:36 why not just follow one or two educators, see who they follow and slowly build ur list? Then there are also #FollowFriday 's / #FF #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:10:44 @JoHart Thx for that - always routing for putting PD in the training classroom esp online #eltchat along with teaching grammar listening etc
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:11:21 I thought the topic was nqt . Is it? #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:11:28 Newly qualified teachers do have a starting point: their trainers #ELTchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:11:38 @olyaelt #eltchat yes I use Fb because a "comfortable" space for many - personally prefer Twitter but need to be in others' comfort zone
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:11:40 @Marisa_C Yes. Tho I have a lot of ppl saying they can't face another site/log in even if it is useful... #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:11:54 @leoselivan hard to know who to follow first - possibly if ur tutor is the 1st one follow ur tutor's friends #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:12:45 RT @angelos_bollas: Newly qualified teachers do have a starting point: their trainers #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:12:50 @JoHart @olyaelt agree that FB taking over Twitter - not quite sure why tho but ppl do feel more comfortable #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:12:57 @Marisa_C @leoselivan #eltchat I always suggest use a mentor who is already familiar with platform & has followers/friends
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:13:01 @angelos_bollas Yes and perhaps their colleagues on the course if they keep in touch #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:13:05 Joining #ELTChat to discuss new teachers and their development.
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:13:17 @JoHart @olyaelt Agree. If they are 'there' already it makes it so much easier #ELTchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:13:18 @Marisa_C http://t.co/NVFhNAiQmL my choice for curating online content *articles, vids, sites etc into bundles. Quick, easy, clean #ELTchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:13:36 @Marisa_C @JoHart @olyaelt true #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:13:45 Social networking and may be lurking at first OK for CPD but need to get more active eventually #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:14:10 RT @cherrymp: @Marisa_C Think the visual nature of FB appeals to many. @JoHart @olyaelt #eltchat
olyaelt 2015-02-25T12:14:20 Also, there's a PD plan teachers create at the end of CELTA - having a consistent approach of working on that is very useful. #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:14:28 RT @Marisa_C: SN and may be lurking at first OK for CPD but need to get more active eventually #eltchat > Agree. No lng if passive.
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:14:38 @EdLaur great! new for me! use lots of thing not bundlr tho #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:14:54 RT @olyaelt: Also, there's a PD plan teachers create at the end of CELTA - having a consistent approach of working on that is very useful. …
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:15:14 @Marisa_C Teachers can also follow other teachers' blogs #ELTchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:15:25 @Shaunwilden @cherrymp @Marisa_C @JoHart @olyaelt Yes - also being able to write as much as you want #ELTchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:16:21 @patrickelt Creating a collaborative wiki with one's fellow trainees is very beneficial! #ELTchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:16:24 @Shaunwilden @cherrymp @Marisa_C @JoHart @olyaelt FB may also be more conducive to posting a question and getting a few answers #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:16:50 @angelos_bollas #eltchat Once trained, not all teachers have support, unfortunately. Here (Germany)you work freelance, and are on your own
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:17:00 RT @angelos_bollas:  Creating a collaborative wiki with one's fellow trainees is very beneficial! #ELTchat Do they have time to do this?
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:17:12 RT @SophiaKhan4: @Shaunwilden @cherrymp @Marisa_C @JoHart @olyaelt Yes - also being able to write as much as you want #ELTchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:17:33 @Shaunwilden @angelos_bollas Maybe setting up their own Facebook page as a shared space? #ELTchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:17:36 @SophiaKhan4 That many find as liberating. #eltchat @Shaunwilden @Marisa_C @JoHart @olyaelt
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:17:37 @Shaunwilden I had - plus, they can do it after the completion of the course, I think. It helps them stay connected. #ELTchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:17:57 @EdLaur This is why one must choose a training centre wisely! #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:18:13 @SophiaKhan4 @angelos_bollas I think this has become somewhat of a norm now, I do much more in Facebook groups than on wikis etc #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:18:15 The bane of joining an #eltchat after a gap - one ends up tweeting without the needed hashtag!
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:18:18 Regarding blogs, I usually recommend @seburn 's list http://t.co/H2jamFn0JH -a great place to start & find something for everyone #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:18:22 @SophiaKhan4 That's a must, IMO! It made my life easier (and more fun) @Shaunwilden  #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:18:27 I use lots of different curation tools - here is a collection of them I put in lessonpaths http://t.co/6xkTeEmNI0 #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:18:35 @SophiaKhan4 #eltchat agree. I suggest they open a second email just to  deal with tools, esl sites etc. Everything needs log in today
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:19:05 RT @Marisa_C I use lots of different curation tools - here is a collection of them I put in lessonpaths http://t.co/7ZPHlWL1un #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:19:20 @EdLaur @SophiaKhan4 great  idea to get out of using my VERY LONG email :-) #eltchat
olyaelt 2015-02-25T12:19:30 @angelos_bollas Any suggestions how to structure that wiki so that it's easy to navigate? According to skills? What else? #eltchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:19:35 @Marisa_C I also remember you giving a great talk on content curation - I think it was for #VRT  #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:19:51 #eltchat lurk to begin with is good but must get involved asap
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:20:11 @Marisa_C #eltchat I think it depends where you are. Seems to me in  US Twitter is moving ahead. Here (Ger) many teachers use neither :-(
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:20:23 Scheduling is also very important! Helps me stay on track with everything. e.g. Monday: Update my Pinterest, Tuesday: write on blog #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:20:26 RT @JoHart: #eltchat lurk to begin with is good but must get involved asap  > Why asap?
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:20:31 @leoselivan yes it was! it was actually from that blog post i took the collection here goes http://t.co/dgnsPNBiqZ #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:20:47 @leoselivan There is also one by @aClilToClimb here: http://t.co/ZBpGq3OZw0 @seburn #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:21:07 @olyaelt Depends on one's needs - If it is a wiki you share with other Ts, you have to decide all together. skills/levels/materials #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:21:17 @EdLaur agree - in greece too they just say some weird things about twitter #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:21:23 @Shaunwilden because otherwise get in rut - develop lurk comfort zone #eltchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:21:30 @cherrymp  yeah that one (by @aClilToClimb) is great too!  cc @seburn #eltchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:21:31 @EdLaur I have a 'second self' on FB as well…Need that separation/focus. But too many log ins is a killer - need to encourage NQTs? #ELTchat
BobK99 2015-02-25T12:21:32 RT @Marisa_C: I use lots of different curation tools - here is a coll'n ... http://t.co/BaIBUWSIuu #eltchat | Thanks for this!
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:21:34 @Shaunwilden The more one gets involved the better one learns IMO. @JoHart #eltchat
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:21:44 @EdLaur @angelos_bollas I wonder if teacher who are freelance are brave enough to turn work down to give enough time for PD #eltchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:22:06 @Marisa_C @EdLaur like what? #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:22:08 IMHO, one needs to carefully manage the PD online. #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:22:14 @cherrymp @JoHart I wasn’t arguing that, just i dont think it has to be asap and anyway lurking IS being involved #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:22:18 @cherrymp @Shaunwilden also  agree involvement = learning #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:22:22 @patrickelt @EdLaur How much time so we really need? More than 1h per day? #ELTchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:22:43 @EdLaur @Marisa_C That's interesting - Ts in diff contexts/countries may have different go-to sources #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:22:51 @cherrymp @Shaunwilden @JoHart agree with Jo and Cherry - look at our FB grp of 3000+ mostly lurkers & consumers of us here #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:23:17 @Shaunwilden @cherrymp #eltchat I just feel pple get comfortable as lurkers and then may not progress
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:23:18 @SophiaKhan4 @EdLaur I use one FB a/c on Chrome and another one on IE - to avoid logging in/out all the time #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:23:30 RT @leoselivan: Regarding blogs, I usually recommend @seburn 's list http://t.co/H2jamFn0JH -a great place to start & find something for ev…

cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:23:48 @SophiaKhan4 There is also personal preferences. @EdLaur @Marisa_C #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:23:49 @leoselivan @EdLaur It will suck their brains with a straw.... no kidding - just afraid in a strange way #eltchat
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:24:00 @angelos_bollas @EdLaur Difficult to say.  What I found useful when I was an NQT was a light timetable and therefore time to read #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:24:04 @JoHart Sharing is a matter of education - we should promote it to one another @Shaunwilden @cherrymp  #ELTchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:24:12 @leoselivan @EdLaur Ah, cunning! #ELTchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:24:20 @Marisa_C @cherrymp @Shaunwilden #eltchat also about "giving back" think pple gain much & giving back is important ...
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:24:27 @cherrymp @EdLaur @Marisa_C Yes, absolutely #ELTchat
olyaelt 2015-02-25T12:24:29 Re PD plan, in our school we have teaching diaries in Gdocs: set personal aims acc to plan / comments about how it went / todo list #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:24:34 @angelos_bollas #eltchat Wow! That is good organisation!!
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:24:36 @patrickelt @angelos_bollas @EdLaur how many contact hrs is a light timetable? :) #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:24:56 RT @cherrymp: @leoselivan There is also one by @aClilToClimb here: http://t.co/ZBpGq3OZw0 @seburn #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:25:02 @patrickelt @EdLaur true - but, even some kind of PD is important - one can read an article per day for sure #ELTchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:25:04 @JoHart It's easy that way I guess. But contributing helps everyone. @Shaunwilden #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:25:10 @Marisa_C @cherrymp @Shaunwilden #eltchat ... as in f-2-f how do we feel about colleague who always takes & never gives?
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:25:21 @patrickelt not always easy to plan to do it that way - may find a FT job #eltchat
olyaelt 2015-02-25T12:25:39 We update those PD diaries are updated at least once a week and discuss them with a mentor, every 1/2 weeks. #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:25:47 RT @JoHart: @Marisa_C @cherrymp @Shaunwilden #eltchat ... as in f-2-f how do we feel about colleague who always takes & never gives?> YES!
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:25:51 @JoHart Esp the people who share feel motivated that ppl notice. Otherwise, demotivation sets in. @Shaunwilden #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:25:59 @JoHart Not very good, indeed - but one shares not to take back! @Marisa_C @cherrymp @Shaunwilden  #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T12:26:00 @JoHart @Marisa_C @cherrymp I dont think they equate and I wouldn’t say lurking was taking, there are many reasons for lurking #eltchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:26:07 @angelos_bollas @patrickelt @EdLaur Could be good to encourage NQTs to have achievable goals like this #ELTchat
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:26:21 @leoselivan @angelos_bollas @EdLaur Perhaps 15 hrs a week but can depend on context - how much prep needed #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T12:26:35 Have to go - the technician is here :-( new internet connection - will come back later  #ELTchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:26:37 RT @JoHart: @Shaunwilden @cherrymp #eltchat I just feel pple get comfortable as lurkers and then may not progress
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:26:49 @olyaelt sounds like a great idea! making a note for school leaders! #ELtchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:27:01 @angelos_bollas @Marisa_C @cherrymp @Shaunwilden agree but having a colleague who always takes gets depressing #eltchat

leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:27:05 British Council has a farily comprehensive #CPD framework with clear goals for every step of your career - great for NQTs #eltchat
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:27:11 @Marisa_C Yes, what is ideal and what is realistic may vary.  Also need to make a living #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:27:59 @angelos_bollas Have been motivated so much by people who share without that getting back anything. #eltchat altruists @JoHart @Shaunwilden
whyshona 2015-02-25T12:28:07 @livesofteachers Thanks for this - lots of links to useful resources on reflective practice for practitioners and research :-) #elt #eltchat
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:28:17 @Shaunwilden @JoHart @Marisa_C @cherrymp I agree with that.  I lurk sometimes when I do not feel I have much to contribute #eltchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:28:24 @Marisa_C @olyaelt Setting 'personal achievement targets' is great - allows teachers of all levels to grow #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:28:26 I think some of us do so much work online we assume everyone should - a couple of hours a week with a plan may be sufficient #ELtchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:28:37 #eltchat sometimes pple don't share because lack confidence so we should encourage always -  just like students
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:28:51 @Shaunwilden @JoHart @Marisa_C @cherrymp but I can still learn from lurking - it would be arrogant to think I can always add #eltchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:29:31 Sorry I got stuck in a meeting at work! I'm here now :) #eltchat thanks to people who voted for topic; my CELTA starts in April! @Marisa_C
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:29:49 @patrickelt #eltchat Probably not. But at least with online/Twitter PD you can use the time around teaching to read up, research etc
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:29:52 @patrickelt @Shaunwilden @Marisa_C @cherrymp Sure you can't always add - I lurk in some contexts but try to give when I can #eltchat ...
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:29:56 @patrickelt @Shaunwilden @JoHart @cherrymp it is smtms hard to decide #eltchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:30:20 Following my previous tweet, here's an example (NQT stage) with clear goals and objectives: http://t.co/WsEc1nTEUF #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:30:30 @patrickelt Think even a word of appreciation is enough. We all are humans and expect some. @Shaunwilden @JoHart @Marisa_C #eltchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:30:48 I am late to the party but would like to praise #ELTchat for being the most wonderful source of useful links & blogs, even before my #CELTA
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:30:49 @leoselivan @Marisa_C #eltchat Haha! Here they just say 'Oh why would I want to know what everyone is having for breakfast!'

racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:31:36 @angelos_bollas what is the atmosphere generally like in ELT staff rooms? One of cooperation and sharing or one of independence? #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:31:40 @racheldaw18 Lol u are the absolute oppsite of all trainees i know - started BEFORE you even did it #eltchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:31:40 @patrickelt @Shaunwilden @Marisa_C @cherrymp ... & know I'm not good at sharing b'cos won't share what I haven't checked out myelf! #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:32:12 @SophiaKhan4 @Marisa_C #eltchat Yes. I don't use FB at all anymore, though was big champion of its potential for teachers. love Twitter thou
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:32:28 I choose my PD platform depending on where my PLN is. #eltchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:32:32 @EdLaur  @Marisa_C that actually fits FB more - rather than twitter. No "what I had for brfk" or cute kitty pix in my Twitter feed #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:32:52 @angelos_bollas OK will bear that important info in mind! #eltchat thanks!
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:33:10 @EdLaur @Marisa_C @JoHart definitely overwhelming to newbies! @sandymillin taught me about @diigo which I'm already loving #ELTchat
patrickelt 2015-02-25T12:33:10 @racheldaw18 @angelos_bollas Varies alot.  Generally good but can be less so if there is conflict with management  #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:33:28 @leoselivan u re right it fits FB much more #eltchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:34:05 @Marisa_C Ooh using Pinterest for #ELT is a novel idea; is that much use, do you find? #ELTchat (have a personal @Pinterest account already)

JoHart 2015-02-25T12:34:36 @leoselivan @EdLaur @Marisa_C I like social in twitter - oils the wheels of the prof relationship. Same as f-2-f "how was lunch?" #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T12:34:42 @Marisa_C But can we dictate what others should post on any platforms? Perhaps the best we can do is to choose our circle. #eltchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:35:15 @JoHart @Marisa_C I discovered Diigo yesterday, but might give Symbaloo a go too, thanks! #ELTchat
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:36:02 @racheldaw18 @JoHart @Marisa_C been using both for a while. Prefer Diigo. Symbaloo is mainly for tools and the like #eltchat

racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:37:44 @Marisa_C So you wouldn't say it's 'clutter' for experienced teachers to see blogs from newbies? #ELTchat (think I will finally mine public)
ELTchat 2015-02-25T12:38:14 So if someone was coming new to bookmarking which tool would you tell them to use? #eltchat

Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:41:31 @racheldaw18 it's a curation tool have a look at my blog post here http://t.co/dgnsPNBiqZ #eltchat (sorry guys) it;s at the end
leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:41:43 @Marisa_C just bear in mind the number of links(tiles) is limited unlike Diigo #eltchat
BobK99 2015-02-25T12:41:43 RQ @racheldaw18: @Marisa_C Could I please ask what exactly you mean by 'lessonpath'? #ELTchat ! Something like a sociopath?
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:41:49 #Eltchat ...Symbaloo for grouped topics as Diigo only allows limited groups for free
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:41:55 @EdLaur @Marisa_C Yeah there definitely is a historic resistance to social networking in DE, I think. (They were v slow on FB too!) #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:42:11 @BobK99 @racheldaw18 lol u are SOOO naughty :-) #eltchat and i love it
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:42:35 @angelos_bollas I really like your idea of scheduling this time - I'm worried I'll get too distracted during my #CELTA with #ELTchat :)
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:42:53 @leoselivan ok so u have to choose wisely i guess #eltchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T12:43:02 @racheldaw18 @Marisa_C I like the visual interface on Pinterest but don't need that for ELT. You only need one ELT curation point? #ELTchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T12:43:17 @racheldaw18 #eltchat I gave talk at ELTABB (Berlin) event last year and they were AMAZING. I've recommend joining to all I know lving there
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:43:20 @SophiaKhan4 @EdLaur So does that mean you like to separate your teaching self from your self-self, so to speak? That's interesting #ELTchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:43:50 @BobK99 @Marisa_C Thanks from me too for that list! I shall add it to my own newly discovered curation tool once I pick one ;) #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T12:44:02 @SophiaKhan4 I use a variety but more than anything diigo and pinterest #eltchat - also my trainee FB grps sometimes :-)
JoHart 2015-02-25T12:44:05 #eltchat As many of u know I am Literacy rather than strictly Language - I have lots of Symbaloo with resource links -some public some not
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T12:44:23 @cherrymp @Shaunwilden @JoHart Glad to hear it; I'll keep wittering on as a soon-to-be CELTA newbie then; might make blog public! #ELTchat

leoselivan 2015-02-25T12:47:11 This lessonpath thing looks interesting but I need further explanation abt it. Does it sort of aggregate all soc. b/marking tools? #eltchat

patrickelt 2015-02-25T13:02:16 @angelos_bollas I think reading of journals like ELTJ and MET is useful too #eltchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T13:02:19 @angelos_bollas Route as such is quite rich. But a lot depends on how NQTs or exp ones make use of. #eltchat
BobK99 2015-02-25T13:02:49 Gotta go. Thanks all at #eltchat.
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T13:02:55 @cherrymp @racheldaw18 @JoHart @EdLaur Is that a pain to do Cherry or is it pretty straightforward? #ELTchat
cherrymp 2015-02-25T13:02:57 @patrickelt Subscription can be a problem. A teacher club or a library can help. @angelos_bollas #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T13:03:01 @Shaunwilden We do not have sth like a DOS in most Greek Lang schools :-( #ELTchat

angelos_bollas 2015-02-25T13:03:42 @patrickelt I just think that this takes more time (and money) than accessing a good blog #ELTchat
JoHart 2015-02-25T13:03:50 #eltchat - finding a mentor familiar with one or more platforms seems  the most effective route into online PD = motivation of the T
cherrymp 2015-02-25T13:03:55 @SophiaKhan4 Once the groundwork is done it is just a matter of few clicks. #eltchat

Shaunwilden 2015-02-25T13:04:00 @angelos_bollas Hmm, depends on the school,  I started in Greece and was looked after very well so much i am still in elt:-) #eltchat
EdLaur 2015-02-25T13:04:02 Thanks all. Glad I discovered #eltchat instead of doing the translation job I promised myself I'd finish today. This is much more fun.
patrickelt 2015-02-25T13:04:03 @Shaunwilden @angelos_bollas In a way also need to think about different aspects - pedagogical, language etc #eltchat

olyaelt 2015-02-25T13:04:53 @angelos_bollas I think online PD is important but has to be complemented with self-reflection/a structured PDplan not to overwhelm #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-25T13:04:59 @EdLaur lol - this is why you gotta have some discipline and do the nasty stuff FIRST! :-D #eltchat

racheldaw18 2015-02-25T14:11:13 @Marisa_C disappeared to a meeting, sorry, so I know I'm late now but I do like webinars - just find them v. time-consuming #eltchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T14:12:45 @EdLaur I'm late  now (disappeared to a meeting) but that's good 2 know about not seeing other teachers so much, thanks 4 warning! #eltchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T14:13:42 @Marisa_C According to the Berlin School of English, @CUPELT have just started to offer it to #CELTA trainees - I'll let you know! #eltchat

racheldaw18 2015-02-25T14:31:11 @Shaunwilden @angelos_bollas late but still #ELTchat - Is it common to be assigned a mentor when you're an NQT in a language school?
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T14:33:13 @olyaelt @angelos_bollas Do you consider 'online PD' to just be reading etc., or do you document it / make it official somehow? #eltchat
NewbieCELTA 2015-02-25T14:33:20 @Marisa_C @leoselivan that's what I tell my trainees...raid my follows for a start! #eltchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T14:34:02 @racheldaw18 @Shaunwilden @angelos_bollas Not in my exp - DoS/Senior T etc is supposed to provide support but that is different #ELTchat
SophiaKhan4 2015-02-25T14:34:55 @racheldaw18 @olyaelt @angelos_bollas You can set your own goals or a school with a good PD prog can set them with you #ELTchat
racheldaw18 2015-02-25T14:38:51 The result in my Hotmail inbox after an exciteable (delayed & staggered) lunch of #ELTchat (photo) Loved it, thx all! http://t.co/zYgkmkIpNM
