I believe that twitter and other social learning media connect, invite, inform ideas that principals must explore to lead within today’s educational communities. Accessing social learning media advantages principals who choose to share resources, consult, and engage peer to peer with educators from diverse
backgrounds – I don’t think an administrator can be at the top of his or her game and not utilize social networks online as a learning tool.-Pam Moran
