Twitter Education Hashtags

Twitter is the go-to resource for millions of teachers around the world. Twitter continues to catch on with teachers young and more experienced alike.

How do hashtags work?

Twitter can be a busy place with lots of tweets–and thus lots of “noise.”

A #hashtag is a way to aggregate tweets that have a hashtag. Picture it like a magnet that attracts all messages categorized by that topical word or phrase.

When you use a hashtag in your tweet, it will allow your message to be part of a larger conversation beyond your followers. Add popular hashtags from the list below to the end of your message, and you’ll automatically reach anyone interested in the same hashtag.

I’m currently using #Learnerships and #KeepClimbing in order to aggregate my occupational training directed projects, programs and ideas. Another #HipFlaskFriday is one where I’m driving social change by inciting ‘conversations about complications’.

If you’re driving your own Twitter projects, share your hashtags in the comments section.
