Edublog Award Nominees 2013



Success isn't just about what you accomplish in your life  It's about what you inspire others to do.

Edublog Award Nominees 2013

Social media has opened up doors for me over the last two years and I feel it is necessary to take a minute to recognize a few of the outstanding people that I have had the opportunity to get to know, interact with, and learn from. I nominated in the categories that I have had personal experience with. I wish I could nominate you all. Every one of you I interact with on Twitter has made me a better teacher and person. Thank you.
