Tips for Using Social Media and Web-Based Documents for Lesson and Program Planning

Article: 12318728 | Published online: 31 Jan 2024
 

Abstract

Early in my teaching career, developing a lesson plan or museum program could be a lonely experience. For most of my five years in the classroom I was on my own — and it wasn’t pretty. Planning usually involved binders of lessons and lots of trial and error. Thankfully, social media and web-based, shared documents have made this a much more collaborative experience. The challenge is staying focused on what you are looking for, and not getting overwhelmed in the process.
