Those of you who have worked with me in the online course understand how powerful a supportive community can be. Courses create a brief, and very potent experience in a community of practice.
You can continue to connect with like minded educators by joining a professional online community. Jim Burke's English Companion is one of the best! Try it! ~ Dennis

"Are you late to the social networking party? No worries. It took me a long time to get into the whole social networking thing, but I’m glad I did. It’s definitely been a beneficial experience.
"Although Facebook continues to defend its position as the most popular social networking platform, you shouldn’t focus all of your attention there. As they say, don’t keep all your eggs in one basket. Where else can you go? Twitter! Twitter is a great resource for social networking, but especially so for writers. By taking advantage of hashtags, you can separate the useless and boring tweets from the ones that are interesting and pertinent." Via Jim Lerman Delete the scoop?

I teach at Burlingame High School every day as I have for the last sixteen years and plan to do for many more to come. Though our work is demanding, even exhausting at times, it is important work. Most of my books focus on the instructional side of our work; others, such as The Teacher's Daybook, offer guidance and support in maintaining the personal-professional balance we must have if we are to enjoy and keep doing this vital work. I plan to make this site a priority in the future. In addition to the englishcompanion.com website, I have also created an englishcompanion ning, an online professional community for English teachers and those who support and prepare them. Please join us! Delete the scoop?

"A participatory culture is a culture with relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement, strong support for creating and sharing one’s creations, and some type of informal mentorship whereby what is known by the most experienced is passed along to novices. A participatory culture is also one in which members believe their contributions matter, and feel some degree of social connection with one another (at the least they care what other people think about what they have created).
