__**Give it a Try (Being A Consumer)**__

1. 2 Choices:
 * Option A:** In the search field on Twitter, enter the hashtag for your content area. From the feed, identify one new resource you might be able to use.
 * Option B:** Using the search field on Pinterest, find a new lesson, website, or idea you might be able to use (try searching through the AEA boards!)

2. Share the resource you found in the Google Doc linked below

__**One More Time! (Being a Producer)**__

1. Go to the above listed "Twitter Chat" resource and find a hashtag that applies to you, your course of study, or is just something you are interested in.

2. Locate the URL for one of your favorite resources - website, app, lesson plan, etc. This can be one you just found in the first activity or one you already know about and really think others should know about too!

3. Create a tweet that highlights that resource - be sure to include the hashtag you identified!

4. Copy and paste your tweet into the Google Doc below in the appropriate field.
