Why Tweet?
Most popular micro blogging tool
GLOBAL COMMUNITY – 140 characters to say what you are doing. Sound crass? Not if actions or thought interest you or others. Especially research & ed.
INSTANTANEOUS – immediate share, dialogue or discovery.
SELECTIVE – using hash tags, you can filter you want and don’t. Backchannels are now used at most major events and conferences.
Blog Post
Do a short lesson (140 characters or so) on what Twitter is and how to use it responsibly (and how not to use it)
Make sure all students have a Twitter account to participate with (it can be their personal one or one created just for class)
Then decide as a class or by yourself a theme to start chats around
Create a hashtag (#?) appropriate to your class that is unique and won’t be visited by many outsiders
Find an engaging article to share with students – make sure it isn’t too long at first
Create an open-ended question that will both provoke thought and honesty
Then set the kids loose on the hashtag
Read what they write and participate in the conversation too -set specific parameters that you can monitor for accountability purposes
Teach them to proofread as they go
Marvel at the quiet sounds in your classroom despite how much “talking” is really going on.
