LinkedIn - Why Educators should use it

LinkedIn is a terrific resource for professionals to network.  I have recently given it a whirl, and the scope is vast!  By keying in your interests/skills in your profile area, the system generates suggested resources for you to link in with.  Furthermore, your own connections can provide you with a myriad of groups and other connections with which to explore your interests.  I have discovered boundless online courses, documents, blogs and discussions relevant to Early Childhood, Inclusion, Emotional and Social Intelligence, Management, IT in the classroom, Autism, International and National Supports - just for example.  The following link is geared towards all Educators and so not Early Years specific.  It highlights the main areas of the professional network, and may make navigation a bit easier!  Look for me if you join!
