Hey All, It's Eva. Here are the three Twitter feeds that come regularly to my cell phone. I tend to like hearing about educational initiatives around the world. I personally feel that Georgia can be so backwoods, that If I'm not careful, I may start to think in a silo. Georgia is constantly struggling to keep up with national trends, so If you'd like to stay constantly on top of the educational goings on, then please add these twitter feeds to your list:

President Obama [] Obviously, these tweets are of huge importance because they are coming from our president. He's post various things that are going on in our nation, one of the most important being education. As an educational leader, what better way to receive vital information from our country's leader. Some tweets are short and sweet while others may link you to more vital websites and information Aiesha Khan (Bridges) 11/12/10

Human Calculator Scott Flansburg [] I watch Stan Lee's Superhuman televison show on History channel and Scott Flansburg was featured as the Human Calculator and he really is a human calculator. And then I went to a conference in CT and a presenter showed a video clip of Scott Flansburg, so I was very intrigued, especially being a math teacher. I've showed clips to my students and they have become inspired and motivated to learn tricks and tips for math. Aiesha Khan (Bridges) 11/12/10

ASCD –Ed Leadership http://twitter.com/Ed_Leadership I have enjoyed following them on Twitter. They do not tweet often that it is overwhelming. Everything is tags so it is easy to locate. They are a creditable organization with good leadership information Allison Castleberry (11/12/10)

**U.S. Department of Education** **[|www.twitter.com/usedgov/status/10383185245]** **I think the department of education is a great organization to follow on Twitter from an educators standpoint. Lots of interesting statistics out there and links to educational websites are commonly tweeted.** **Jeff Jones (11/15/10)**

**ED-Tech Talk** **[]** **Ed-Tech Talk is great to follow on Twitter because of the size of this organization. They offer many opportunities for webcasts at their other website []. They typically tweet about upcoming webcasts on their website and opportunities for teachers to partner up and discuss educational ideas in their chatroom. I've never done it. It requires you to register first, but I believe it's FREE!** **Jeff Jones (11/15/10)**
