Chapter Overview
This chapter shares multiple examples of how teachers are connecting students to experts and to other students in powerful ways. In all of the examples social media either facilitated the connection or was the source of the connection itself. We have the power to create learning experiences for our students very easily and if we are open to digital leadership.
