It has been some time since I logged into my Twitter account and viewed messages from colleagues around the globe. Again, another summer resolution partially fulfilled , that is, log in to Twitter at least once a week and view messages. Week one so far so good.
Twitter is the most amazing, collaborative, social learning environment, and one of the least invasive time consuming social network tools.
Scouring through a 100 messages ( messages of maximum 140 characters) took 30 minutes of concentrated effort. A Twitter friend at an International School in Korea, retweeted the following You Tube Video - The Alchemy of Great Work by Box of Crayons, suggesting that it would be the ideal video to show at the beginning of the school year.
What is particularly inspiring about this video is the message ~ "Good Work" allows one to connect heart, hand and mind and to achieve "Good Work" it takes Focus, Courage and Resilience.
Now that the dust has settled after the first week of school, looking ahead to the year, I would also like to add that "Good Work" provides Inspiration.
