Well the TappedIn virtual environment has been around for quite a while, but I often run into teachers that don’t know anything about. Additionally, I run into teachers who have nothing but good things to say about it. If you are interested in IT professional development, and you like the idea of being able to learn and connect with others in an online environment, you should really sign up for a membership. It’s free.

TappedIn has recently had a makeover, and I think it’s for the best. The environment is now more focused on making connections with people, rather than doing some of possibly less relevant things (trainable objects, etc.). There are now groups to sign up with, including a teacher Faculty group and a preservice teacher group. These groups are just evolving, so now is the time to sign up. Who knows where this may lead.
