Teachers need to become a part of a great community.
If a teacher starts connecting to other teachers outside of the classroom walls they will be more likely to have their students establish connections.
Join a community of learning. There are many types of these out there. Currently communities of learning take place via a
listserv. That means you get email and can post email to a central address that goes to every that has joined that community.
Here are the ones I am a part of:
