Education Week has expanded its social horizons to Bluesky.

The platform—an alternative to X, formerly known as Twitter—has seen big increases in users over the past several years. It now has more than 35 million users, and plenty of K-12 professionals are among them.

Bluesky offers a “starter pack” feature that allows new users to have a jump start in building their networks on the platform. Many educators have created their own starter packs in order to connect and share experiences and ideas with others in a way that largely resembles the Twitter timelines of old.
