This week’s collection of inspiring, informative, useful, or just plain fun tweets about education and instructional technology articles, resources, etc.
(Originally posted on Twitter by @EmergingEdTech over this past week … collected here to share with our blog readers).
This week we start off some excellent Open Education Resources, we've got plenty of great flipped and blended learning insights (and one controversial one), and a wealth of great content from Terry Heick and the crew at TeachThought, along with a variety of instructional tech tips. And then we wrap it up with a good laugh.
Wishing all our readers in the US a great 4th of July Weekend!
