In 2013, the internet went mobile. For the first time, the number of internet-connected mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, exceeds the numbers of desktops and laptops. The number of people accessing the internet via mobile devices will overtake the number using fixed-line connections some time in 2014. What this means for teachers, is that it’s now much, much easier to access social media. From our pockets, we can connect with colleagues round the country and across the world at the tap of a button.

It is worth quoting at length from this brilliant blogpost by Joey Bagstock on what blogging has done for CPD, which charts a subtle but significant shift between teachers and leaders:
‘It seemed to me that senior teachers had access to all the information – research, good practice, strategies and resources – whilst us inexperienced teachers, or those without responsibility, were left to receive new ideas and initiatives second hand. We were like worshippers before the Reformation: listening compliantly to the interpretation (and selection) of God’s word from a clergy seemingly much better versed in Latin than us.
We can educate masses through positive sharing of knowledge and we can change opinion as well.
