| 9:06 pm | esolcourses: | Most of my collegues are seriously overworked – when I try to get them interested, usual response is “not enough hours in the day” #ELTChat |
| 9:06 pm | sram_socrates: | @esolcourses our principal has had some success with the blogging aspect but SM is still a struggle #eltchat |
| 9:06 pm | vickyloras: | Some find it difficult to believe that Twitter is one of the best ways of PD you can get-until I describe to them what we are doing #ELTChat |
| 9:06 pm | carlaraguseo: | I’ve been inviting colleages to EVO for years.Little more and more teachers are joining and inviting more collegues to join in. #ELTchat |
| 9:07 pm | europeaantje: | RT @esolcourses: Most of my collegues are seriously overworked – when I try to get them interested, usual response is “not enough hours in the day” #ELTChat |
| 9:07 pm | bcnpaul1: | @esolcourses that’s thing I think – some ppl just want the material from others without really engaging in how it gets discovered #eltchat |
| 9:07 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @esolcourses I have the same response Sue… I tell them you give as much time as you want #ELTChat |

| 9:08 pm | sandymillin: | #eltchat Most teachers here (and everywhr I thnk) have so mny demands on their time) – how can we mk attrctive wthout seeming timeconsuming? |
| 9:08 pm | carlaraguseo: | I’ve seen a great change in teachers’ attitude in #Arg although many are still reluctant #ELTchat |
| 9:08 pm | bcnpaul1: | RT @sandymillin: #eltchat Most teachers here (and everywhr I thnk) have so mny demands on their time) – how can we mk attrctive wthout seeming timeconsuming? |
| 9:08 pm | europeaantje: | RT @bcnpaul1: @esolcourses some ppl just want the material from others without really engaging in how it gets discovered #eltchat | oh yes |
| 9:08 pm | JoshSRound: | @vickyloras absolutely agree vicky, colleagues I’ve mentioned twitter to simply raise their eyebrows #eltchat |
| 9:08 pm | cecilialcoelho: | My biggest problem is showing colleagues the many benefits of online PD #ELTChat |
| 9:08 pm | sandymillin: | #eltchat Also difficult for techphobics |
| 9:08 pm | chriscattaneo: | RT @Marisa_C: Our topic this evening: “How can we convince colleagues that online PD is as valuable as face-to-face? ” #ELTchat |

| 9:08 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @cecilialcoelho: My biggest problem is showing colleagues the many benefits of online PD #ELTChat > u not the only one |
| 9:08 pm | graingered: | @Marisa_C You can’t because it isnt. Not to devalue online PD, but in-person trumps online in so many meaningful ways. #ELTchat |
| 9:08 pm | DaveDodgson: | RT @SueAnnan: I find that my colleagues dismiss online PD out of hand and think it is only for ‘geeks #ELTchat |
| 9:08 pm | SueannaN: | RT @europeaantje: RT @bcnpaul1: @esolcourses some ppl just want the material from others without really engaging in how it gets discovered #eltchat | oh yes |
| 9:09 pm | bcnpaul1: | it’s true – ppl think twitter & blogging / reading blogs is for geeks #eltchat |
| 9:09 pm | sandymillin: | #eltchat Maybe we could come up with a 3 minute YouTube on quickly joining in online PD – easier to access / respond to than many webpages! |
| 9:09 pm | europeaantje: | @cecilialcoelho my colleahues see the benefits but don´t get into it #ELTChat |
| 9:09 pm | vickyloras: | @sram_socrates Hi Shawn!Nice to see you here again – welcome! #ELTChat |
| 9:09 pm | JoshSRound: | @sandymillin #eltchat time management is very much an issue – how do ppl deal with info overload? |
| 9:09 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @graingered: @Marisa_C You can’t because it isnt. Not to devalue online PD, but in-person trumps online in so many ways. #ELTchat |
| 9:09 pm | chriscattaneo: | ?@bcnpaul1: it’s true – ppl think twitter & blogging / reading blogs is for geeks #eltchat? That is changing a bit….. |
| 9:09 pm | bcnpaul1: | and that geeks = negative but there’s so much there to stimulate our work #eltchat |
| 9:09 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @europeaantje That’s what happened after my sharing session Guido, a couple even joined twitter, but never tweeted after that #ELTChat |
| 9:10 pm | sram_socrates: | @JoshSRound favorite, bookmark, store and deal with it when U have time #eltchat |
| 9:10 pm | Marisa_C: | @graingered I do both as a trainer and each one has a different type of value and for different reasons and stages in a T’s career #ELTchat |
| 9:10 pm | sandymillin: | @JoshSRound #eltchat Info overload is about filtering – easier for me as I grew up with this, but takes practice |
| 9:10 pm | DaveDodgson: | @bcnpaul1 A lot of people think of Twitter as a purely social tool as well (I certainly used to!) #ELTchat |
| 9:10 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @JoshSRound: @vickyloras absolutely agree vicky, colleagues I’ve mentioned twitter to simply raise their eyebrows #eltchat |
| 9:10 pm | bcnpaul1: | @ChrisCattaneo I agree – let’s hope it continues #eltchat |
| 9:10 pm | vickyloras: | @JoshSRound Yes!In the beginning they cannot quite realize what is happening…until they see it! #ELTChat |
| 9:10 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @ChrisCattaneo I agree with you on that Chris…changing, but too slowly for my taste #eltchat |
| 9:10 pm | europeaantje: | @cecilialcoelho think 10 of my colleagues r on twitter: 1 lurks 1 only retweets, rest dropped it #ELTChat |
| 9:10 pm | sandymillin: | RT @sram_socrates: @JoshSRound favorite, bookmark, store and deal with it when U have time #eltchat <normal response = what time? |
| 9:11 pm | sram_socrates: | @DaveDodgson I did too at first, but one needs to experience it and invest a little time to understand the benefits #eltchat |
| 9:11 pm | Marisa_C: | @JoshSRound Fellow course tutors/teacher trainers have the same sort of reaction – so why wonder? It begins with us the trainers #eltchat |
| 9:11 pm | brightideasblog: | RT @esolcourses: Most of my collegues are seriously overworked – when I try to get them interested, usual response is “not enough hours in the day” #ELTChat |
| 9:11 pm | carlaraguseo: | Online PD implies active engagement and participation in your professional community. Empowrement #ELTchat |
| 9:11 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @vickyloras I get that too Vicky… I have heard “You think twitter is the best thing, don’t you? ” a couple of times… Yes I do! #ELTChat |
| 9:11 pm | bcnpaul1: | @DaveDodgson exactly – that’s what needs to be communicated – that it’s much more than what i had for breakfast #eltchat |
| 9:11 pm | sandymillin: | RT @sram_socrates: @DaveDodgsonone needs to experience it and invest a little time #eltchat<investing time is the hard part |
| 9:11 pm | europeaantje: | RT @cecilialcoelho: @vickyloras I get that too Vicky… I have heard “You think twitter is the best thing, don’t you? ” a couple of times… Yes I do! #ELTChat |
| 9:11 pm | sram_socrates: | @sandymillin There is always time, in the tub, at the doc office, nightly reading slowly is better then never #eltchat |
| 9:12 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @sram_socrates: @DaveDodgsonone needs to experience it and invest a little time #eltchat<investing time is the hard part |
| 9:12 pm | esolcourses: | @cecilialcoelho @europeaantje have had the same thing happen as well, i.e. people to sign up to Twitter, but they don’t tweet #ELTChat |
| 9:12 pm | vickyloras: | @graingered Yes,but now in the time of video and Skype,even online PD has become more personalized in my opinion #ELTChat |
| 9:12 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @sram_socrates: @sandymillin There is always time, in the tub, at the doc office, nightly reading slowly is better then never #eltchat |
| 9:12 pm | DaveDodgson: | An issue for some teachers I know is that online PD is seen to ‘invade’ free time – they want PD to contained in work hours #ELTchat |
| 9:12 pm | DinaDobrou: | Hello all. #eltchat |
| 9:12 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @bcnpaul1 @esolcourses I agree with you Paul, but at the same time I’ve gotten a couple of ppl to at least look at it coz of my it #eltchat |
| 9:12 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @DaveDodgson: An issue for some teachers I know is that online PD is seen to ‘invade’ free time – they want PD in work hours #ELTchat |
| 9:12 pm | JoshSRound: | @sandymillin #eltchat yes, have marked faves to read later, often struggle to get round to doing it, still good intentions 🙂 |
| 9:12 pm | bcnpaul1: | @DaveDodgson i agree but wonder if that’s something to do with enjoying teaching as well #eltchat |
| 9:13 pm | europeaantje: | @cecilialcoelho @ChrisCattaneo @esolcourses mind you i had been on twitter for 7months before i started tweeting so hope not dead #ELTChat |
| 9:13 pm | sandymillin: | RT @DaveDodgson: An issue is that online PD is seen to ‘invade’ free time – PD to contained in work hours #ELTchat <my cllgs believe! |
| 9:13 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @bcnpaul1 @esolcourses (re material and resources we learn about in twitter and blogs) #eltchatprevious tweet |
| 9:13 pm | vickyloras: | @cecilialcoelho Same here!I tell them I’ve learnt more in a yr than in uni for 4,without wanting to underestimate that time either #ELTchat |
| 9:13 pm | DaveDodgson: | @bcnpaul1 You may have a point there 😉 #ELTchat |
| 9:13 pm | chriscattaneo: | RT @DaveDodgson: An issue for some teachers I know is that online PD is seen to ‘invade’ free time – they want PD to contained in work hours #ELTchat |
| 9:13 pm | carlaraguseo: | @JoshSRound Agree. Big change starts when teacher trainers get it and share it with trainees #ELTchat |
| 9:13 pm | sandymillin: | RT @bcnpaul1: @DaveDodgson i agree but wonder if tht’s something to do with enjoying teaching as well #eltchat <think it could be! love job! |

| 9:13 pm | vickyloras: | @DinaDobrou Kalos orises – welcome, Dina! #ELTChat |
| 9:14 pm | Marisa_C: | A lot of state school Ts in Greece have similiar attitude – PD in working hours & be paid for it too! #ELTchat – other countries? |
| 9:14 pm | SueannaN: | RT @carlaraguseo: Online PD implies active engagement and participation in your professional community. Empowrement #ELTchat |
| 9:14 pm | DinaDobrou: | @Marisa_C @DaveDodgson True, and some don’t want to bother learning how to use yet Another social medium. #ELTchat |
| 9:14 pm | bcnpaul1: | I think i was a bit bored in my job before started tweeting – online PD is a great energiser #eltchat |
| 9:14 pm | europeaantje: | RT @ChrisCattaneo: @esolcourses @cecilialcoelho @europeaantje I think it’s ok to lurk for a while, don’t you ? #eltchat |

| 9:15 pm | esolcourses: | @ChrisCattaneo @europeaantje @cecilialcoelho absolutely fine to lurk – ppl I know don’t lurk, tho – they signed up, then dropped it #ELTChat |
| 9:15 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @europeaantje: I think it’s ok to lurk for a while, don’t you ? #eltchat> A time for lurking is not bad – to get used to the medium |
| 9:15 pm | bcnpaul1: | @europeaantje lurking’s absolutely fine – I think ppl are afraid to tweet #eltchat |

| 9:15 pm | esolcourses: | RT @carlaraguseo: Online PD implies active engagement and participation in your professional community. Empowrement #ELTchat |
| 9:15 pm | DaveDodgson: | @bcnpaul1 Is it fair to say teachers who want to be involved in online PD will be? Difficult to engage the others? #ELTchat |
| 9:15 pm | bcnpaul1: | i try to tell ppl they don’t have to tweet – just follow lots of ppl and get ideas / twittertim.es / follow #eltchat etc. |
| 9:15 pm | vbenevolofranca: | Coming in a bit late here. Sort of think it has 2 do with “learning” & “training” styles. #eltchat |
| 9:15 pm | europeaantje: | @bcnpaul1 for as much as we are welcoming people twitter´s still a bit daunting at first 🙂 #eltchat |
| 9:16 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @bcnpaul1: i try to tell ppl they don’t have to tweet – just follow lots of ppl and get ideas / twittertim.es / follow #eltchat etc. |
| 9:16 pm | SueannaN: | I feel more empowered and more enthusiastic after an #ELTchat session. It shows in the classroom, which has to be a good thing, surely |
| 9:16 pm | bcnpaul1: | RT @europeaantje: @bcnpaul1 for as much as we are welcoming people twitter´s still a bit daunting at first 🙂 #eltchat > definitely agree |
| 9:16 pm | Marisa_C: | RT @bcnpaul1: : @bcnpaul1 for as much as we are welcoming people twitter´s still a bit daunting at first 🙂 #eltchat > definitely agree |
| 9:16 pm | DaveDodgson: | @cecilialcoelho And at Christmas, new hair as well :p #ELTchat |
| 9:16 pm | sram_socrates: | @ChrisCattaneo Totally understand your pain, it seems most days I talk more to my PLN than my colleagues #eltchat |
| 9:16 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @DaveDodgson @bcnpaul1 I think you’re mostly right Dave, but some can be “lured”in #ELTchat |
| 9:16 pm | chriscattaneo: | ?@sandymillin: #eltchat Maybe we could come up with a 3 minute YouTube on quickly joining in online PD – (cont) http://tl.gd/7uoqsa |
| 9:16 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @DaveDodgson Of course… a commplete new hairdo and a possible side career!!! 😉 #ELTchat |
| 9:17 pm | JoshSRound: | @cecilialcoelho Have to admit to doing plenty of lurking since joining twitter – lots to digest initially #eltchat |
| 9:17 pm | vbenevolofranca: | @Marisa_C This is true as well here in Brazil. I understand this: some struggle 2 make a living teaching in 3 different schools! #ELTChat |
| 9:17 pm | esolcourses: | Took me a month or two at least to figure out Twitter, and even after that, a few more months b4 I really started to see the point #ELTchat |
| 9:17 pm | vickyloras: | @vbenevolofranca It is about how to convince colleagues that online PD is as valuable as f2f – Hi Valeria! #ELTCHat |
| 9:17 pm | bcnpaul1: | @cecilialcoelho ‘lured in’ 🙂 sounds a bit dodgy! 🙂 #eltchat |
| 9:17 pm | Marisa_C: | Wrote a blog post about that sm time ago – was a bit fed up but got some v g comments by PLNhttp://bit.ly/9EM79e #ELTchat |
| 9:17 pm | europeaantje: | RT @JoshSRound: @cecilialcoelho Have to admit to doing plenty of lurking since joining twitter – lots to digest initially #eltchat |
| 9:17 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @JoshSRound I think we all go through that Josh…scary at first, intimidating really #eltchat |
| 9:18 pm | DinaDobrou: | @Marisa_C It was quite a while. And, yes, I did lurk at the beginning. But even that was useful. #ELTchat |
| 9:18 pm | europeaantje: | @bcnpaul1 @cecilialcoelho “luring in the lurkers” hahaha #eltchat |
| 9:18 pm | sandymillin: | RT @europeaantje: @bcnpaul1 @cecilialcoelho “luring in the lurkers” hahaha #eltchat |
| 9:18 pm | bcnpaul1: | I think lurking has to translate into participation at some point though – agree? #eltchat |
| 9:18 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @bcnpaul1 Bad choice of words… my bad 😉 Let’s say some can be shown the light??? Too ethereal?? LOL #eltchat |
| 9:18 pm | Marisa_C: | @graingered I agree they complement each other – there are elements of teaching (esp Teaching Practice) which need to be done f2f #ELTchat |
| 9:18 pm | vickyloras: | RT @SueAnnan Feel more empowered and more enthusiastic after an #ELTchat session.Shows in the classroom,which has to be a good thing,surely |
| 9:18 pm | sram_socrates: | @europeaantje I would say that lurking is always a good way to start, U get to understand how things works #eltchat |
| 9:18 pm | chriscattaneo: | RT @europeaantje: @bcnpaul1 @cecilialcoelho “luring in the lurkers” hahaha #eltchat |

| 9:19 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @bcnpaul1 Lurking moves into participation when confidence is built. But sometimes it takes one to reach the other. Make sense? #eltchat |

| 9:19 pm | SueannaN: | My Online PD even raised an eyebrow at recent BC inspection #eltCHAT |
| 9:19 pm | bcnpaul1: | @cecilialcoelho maybe, although I like it – what about ‘enticed’ mmm, still dodgy 🙂 #eltchat |

| 9:19 pm | Marisa_C: | @vbenevolofranca Same info re France – at #TESOLfr state school Ts only a v small handful – even though f2f!!! #ELTChat |
| 9:20 pm | Xiniaa: | @Marisa_C In Jordan, PD is done on the weekend without overtime or compensation- no wonder teachers hate it #ELTchat #Jo |
| 9:20 pm | bcnpaul1: | @SueAnnan ooh – explain #eltchat |
| 9:20 pm | vbenevolofranca: | @vickyloras Hi Vicky! True, does take time to convince trainers. They need to experience it! #ELTchat |
| 9:20 pm | DaveDodgson: | Perception is an issue too: eg some colleagues dont get the idea of online conferences. They dont believe you just log on & watch #ELTchat |
| 9:20 pm | chriscattaneo: | I think good moderation is useful….where new contributors to chats like this r acknowledged and welcomed #eltchat |
| 9:20 pm | sandymillin: | #eltchat Come into my web, said the spider to the fly 😉 |
| 9:20 pm | cecilialcoelho: | RT @ChrisCattaneo: I think good moderation is useful….where new contributors 2 chats like this r acknowledged & welcomed #eltchat > Agree! |
| 9:20 pm | bcnpaul1: | @cecilialcoelho perfect sense – noone should be forced or pushed but there’s so much more to be gained thru interaction #eltchat |
| 9:20 pm | sandymillin: | RT @chriscattaneo: I think good moderation is useful….where new contributors to chats like this r acknowledged and welcomed #eltchat |
| 9:20 pm | DinaDobrou: | I shld probably send my colleagues a copy of the transcript to convince them cos other ways of inviting them on here didn’t work. #ELTchat |
| 9:21 pm | vickyloras: | @graingered Surely not,but has made things easier and a bit more personal #ELTChat |

| 9:45 pm | sram_socrates: | @bcnpaul1 Would agree with that suggestion – It also helps to have a mentor to ask questions to #eltchat |

| 9:46 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @LukeMeddings I do feel blogging is even more intimidating than ELTChat / twitter / Commenting on blogs all together #eltchat |
| 9:46 pm | Xiniaa: | The main obstacle for online PD is the resistance to change irrelevant of age or culture #ELTchat@Marisa_C |
| 9:46 pm | JoshSRound: | @LukeMeddings True, twitter & blogs go together very well…Just another addition to potential info overload though. #eltchat |
| 9:46 pm | europeaantje: | @steve__kirk IMO diff btw visitor – resident is the communication/conversation. will watch vid later again #eltchat |

| 9:46 pm | sandymillin: | @cecilialcoelho @lukemeddings #eltchat not necessarily blogging, just reading blogs |
| 9:46 pm | bcnpaul1: | @JoshSRound that’s the key isn’t it -PD without overload #eltchat |
| 9:46 pm | DaveDodgson: | Another issue with showing your PLN to someone is that they want the same thing immediately but of course building a PLN takes time #ELTchat |
| 9:47 pm | Marisa_C: | I think repeats can get messy – never sure if same people will turn up etc #ELTchat then u say same stuff all over again – cont. |

| 9:47 pm | esolcourses: | @cybraryman1 @cecilialcoelho @bcnpaul1 @gret @LukeMeddings find Twitter seems to spark a fair number of my blog posts off #ELTChat |
| 9:47 pm | willycard: | @ChrisCattaneo @Marisa_C re: time , someone said earlier that this is not really an issue : -) … but it is #ELTchat |
| 9:47 pm | cecilialcoelho: | @sandymillin @lukemeddings Ok… reading blogs and twitter sound like a good combo #eltchat |
