Review

"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 leadershipTools for connecting educators, parents, and communitiesBlogging for educatorsBest practices for establishing a makerspaceTools to connect and empower teachersFinally, 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 "Joe and Tony do a masterful job of personalizing this innovative work. You can tell this work is their vocation, not just a job. Their writing has been quickly absorbed by doctoral students, faculty and alumni here at @MCDPEL." -- Dr. Joe Mazza, Innovation Leadership Manager "The skill set of a leader has changed. We haven't been given any more time or money, but the expectation to stay ahead of the curve has dramatically changed the way we 'do business.' Thankfully, through the use of several social media tools, Sanfelippo and Sinanis show practical ways administrators can meet the demands of our role with ease." -- Amber Teamann, Assistant Principal "With this book, Sinanis and Sanfelippo have written a well-researched, yet accessible guide to the how and why school administrators should embrace social media. This book will help school administrators who are still debating whether or not to be online jump into the waters." -- Chris Lehmann, Founding Principal
