Leading in education is the process of introducing thought to the practice of learning and leading. In that vein, engaging the process of making that thinking process visible or accessible is key to growing ownership and engagement. If I make a choice, it’s not always clear why that choice or process will benefit the organization, and yet much of my work is intentional. And I hate to hear the feedback “You talk too much”. So, choosing to engage in social network services, such as Twitter, Facebook, Blogging, or even Instagram, allows my community insight on where my thoughts are directed and which elements I’m trying to connect. Clearly, each platform has its advantages: Twitter for short bursts and marketing links; Facebook handles links, images, and expository writing; Instagram, of course, is great for images, short text, and scads of hashtags. And the Blog. A digital journal, searchable, tag-able, and demarked longitudinally.
Hashtags should get their own blog post someday, but for now, let's hold to the promise of a folksonomy that can connect ideas, disjointed thoughts, and subtle implied meanings.
So, why should Education Leaders SMS? We implement with intentionality around elements intended to promote equity, create access, and achieve social justice. Transparency to those processes and practices reduce friction and eliminate drag--or foster the opportunity for feedback and engaged dialog.
