Nikki Robertson is thrilled that her school has made ‘Building Your PLN with Twitter’ one of three three School Improvement Goals for the school year. She ran a professional development session for the staff, complete with donuts and coffee. She described her experiences on Twitter adn the Twitter basics and terminology but has encountered resistance from staff afterwards.
This sinister underlying resistance was verbalized by one of our teachers at lunch the other day and has been echoed in one way or another by several other teachers. So what is this resistance? Well, here is a paraphrased quote:
“I’m not sharing my lesson plans or activities with anyone. I worked to hard to make them to just give them away.”
