Abstract
State Educational Twitter Hashtags (SETHs) are commonly used to support educators’ learning. The purpose of this study is to investigate the frequency of use and user engagement for SETHs in order to better understand their potential to both research and practice. We found that the 48 SETHs we examined are being commonly used and that we can examine their user engagement to begin to understand how they can serve as a model for professional learning.
