"This is an incredibly practical book that provides insight on engaging school stakeholders. Brad has done a wonderful job of sharing success stories as it relates to the power of technology to connect schools with parents and community members. The ideas shared throughout the book can help strengthen a school's culture in order to promote the success of all students." -- Todd Whitaker, Professor of Department of Educational Leadership "As society evolves due to advances in technology, so must schools. Brad Currie provides a much needed spark for school leaders to begin to meet their stakeholders where they are by leveraging tools synonymous with the real world as we know it. By weaving a tale embedded with practical examples, Brad articulates a vision for using social media as a powerful way to engage an array of stakeholders in two way communications." -- Eric Sheninger, Principal "Brad Currie harnesses the key element in today's social media-infused school environment--"Knowledge is Power!" He illustrates just how we as educators need to use this knowledge in positive ways to support our schools, students, and communities. Great takeaways I'll be using at my school! " -- Daisy Dyer Duerr, PreK-12 Principal "Brad Currie has provided the educational world with a diversified look at the important connections schools can make with technology in the 21st Century. It's no longer an option for educators to take advantage of available web tools to stay connected with what's right in education. This book will inspire all of us, on a global scale, to stay active in ways once thought unimaginable. A must read! " -- Salome Thomas-EL, Award-winning principal and author "Brad Currie is one of my most trusted, go-to sources for learning how to harness the power of becoming a connected educator. He doesn't just talk the talk...he walks it every day. In this book, he has provided a complete, easy-to-follow map that can lead anyone to the treasures available to well-connected educators and schools." -- Dave Burgess, Author, Teach Like a PIRATE "As of now there are about 20 books in the Corwin Connected Educator Series, a seemingly ever-growing set of titles masterminded by Peter DeWitt and Corwin Press. Each book is short enough to be read in one sitting, which makes the collection ideal for book studies and professional development, both during the summer and throughout the school year. Also, each paperback is authored by one or two educators who speak (and blog, tweet, etc.) with a credible voice in the world of connected education. Some of the topics include:




Flipped leadership


Tools for connecting educators, parents, and communities


Blogging for educators


Best practices for establishing a makerspace


Tools to connect and empower teachers


Finally, all of the authors are active on social media, and they regularly present at local conferences, which helps in bringing to life the contents of these books." -- Ross Cooper, Supervisor of Instructional Practice K-12
