Follow us on twitter for the latest learning resources, conversations about educational technology, spotlights on granite classrooms and libraries, and news of the department.
Individual Granite educators are also using the #graniteedtech hashtag on Twitter to share resources and talk about ways they are using technology in the classroom. We similarly use the #granitelibraries hashtag to talk about great things happening in our school libraries. Everyone is welcome, just use these hashtags in your own tweets to join the conversation!
