Later in the semester our schedule gets busy, so we immediately post if we have cancellations and openings#wcchat


Right now I use it to send out information about events and grammar tips. We encourage students to send usquestions. #wcchat#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:00 | htaylor00

Jason & Julie from BMCC (Borough of Manhattan Community College, City University of New York) here!#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:01 | BMCCWC

We use Twitter to post tips, quotes, lit related posts, and business/ marketing articles that can be useful tostudents and faculty #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:01 | tamuwc

@DePaulUCWbL here. We feed our blog through Twitter and advertise events on campus we sponsor. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:01 | DePaulUCWbL

Our wc doesn't have a twitter acct., partly because twitter doesn't seem to be that popular on our campus.#wcchat


@htaylor00 Have writers been utilizing your center's twitter account to ask questions? #wcchat


I love @WriteDubC 's idea to post cancellations and openings last minute--very cool!#wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL I think your twitter is one of the most active wc accts. I've seen! #wcchat


Kaplan reporting in #wcchat.

02-Feb-12 20:02 | PickleInk

#wcchat Anyone have figures on how many students check in on your tweets and how often?


Illinois Central College, and we use Twitter to promote openings in the schedule and different events. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:02 | TheStudioatICC

How do you find your students on Twitter? Do they decide to follow you, or do you reach out to them? #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:03 | BMCCWC

@WriteDubC We've had questions come in via direct message. Most of the questions still come through theFacebook page, though. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:03 | htaylor00

We were inspired by this chat to start thinking about how to use our twitter account.#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:03 | ASU_WC

Our plan is to send updates about campus events related to writing (contests, readings, etc.) and to post writingtips. #wcchat


We just started our Twitter account recently and have been using it to post general announcements andreminders.#wcchat


@BMCCWC We use Facebook to plug our twitter, which will usually add a few followers. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:04 | tamuwc

We also use Twitter to see what you other amazing centers are up to- and to steal ideas!#wcchat


@htaylor00 How do you manage student questions? I thought about encouraging that but thought it might getoverwhelming. #wcchat


Do many of you find your twitter updates tend to coincide/replicate your facebook page updates? Do you usethem in different ways? #wcchat


@BMCCWC We reach out to them through events on campus and info sheets with our "Twitter Handle".#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:05 | htaylor00

The BerenWC here. Hoping to get comfy using twitter#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:05 | BerenWC

We have more of a student following on Facebook and "outside" followers on Twitter. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:05 | tamuwc

We found it helpful to follow campus departments & organizations, but not many individual students have startedto follow us--yet.#wcchat


@wvwritingcenter We tend to use ours similarly. But we like to make FB posts a little longer simply because wecan. #wcchat


@write4college We're a small school, so the number of questions we get is not overwhelming. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:06 | htaylor00

@htaylor00 what kind of questions do you field from students? #wcchat


@wvwritingcenter Sometimes- we try to get both short but Facebook is the more detailed version of our tweets.#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:06 | tamuwc

Curious if anyone has a great way to promote their twitter feeds. What's worked? What hasn't worked? #wcchat


@wvwritingcenter It mostly depends on the content. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:07 | tamuwc

#wcchat: For WLN, the FB and Twitter do sort of repeat. I assume different audiences. Not so?


We have done email blasts to faculty and students. We saw a big jump in followers in one day. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:08 | tamuwc

@WriteDubC Our official campus Twitter account often retweets our posts. Very helpful in reaching a largeraudience! #wcchat


@ASU_WC Awesome, thanks! Our account is new too, so we're still trying to get student followers. Any luck withmass campus email? #wcchat


@WLNewsletter We see different audiences as well. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:08 | tamuwc

#wcchat I think Twitter is actually a good way for tutors to interact with other writing centers.

02-Feb-12 20:08 | jrgmckinney

#wcchat: Is this chat going to be archived anywhere? So many great ideas here.


@WLNewsletter Even if they overlap, people's timelines/feeds update so often, why not replicate posts? #wcchat


@UWMWritingCtr It could be anything from how to get a session to how to cite something. Usually ends withthem coming to the Center. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:08 | htaylor00

@wlnewsletter manageflitter can give you info on followers, including people who you follow who are notfollowing back #wcchat #wcchat


#wcchat I like the idea of posting cancellations: our appt. scheduler doesn't allow bookings less than 24h beforean appt. starts.@WritedubC


@write4college Yes! Mass campus email can help! #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:09 | tamuwc

At Kaplan, we use Twitter to promote new resources, workshops, and Live Tutoring reminders #wcchat


@TheStudioatICC Most definitely a great use of twitter. I've been retweeting you all and discovering useful linksand articles. #wcchat


#wcchat - At Daytona State, we have not yet found a way to use twitter effecively.... except to keep up withWLNewslatter

02-Feb-12 20:10 | CwG_NSF

@tcsalvo agree! seems like it's more a tool for (pre)professionalization #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:10 | jwluther

@tamuwc Great, thanks! #wcchat


@WLNewsletter I'll be archiving on Storify but happy to take suggestions for different/better ways. #wcchat


@write4college Thanks- most of the links come from our student consultants. #wcchat


We use twitter as a tool in our anti-marginalization fight. It's a cyber student union and we're right there witheveryone! #wcchat


#wcchat: Thanks, DePaul, I'll try manageflitter. Is that a separate ap or something within Twitter?


@wlnewsletter we also use filtertweeps to follow students, community organizations, etc #wcchat


Kaplan KUWC promotes on FB, blogs, and web pages #wcchat


@laglowzenski That's what we're here for today--best ways to use twitter. So suggest away folks! This can be abrainstorming session #wcchat


@jrgmckinney I like this idea. I'm trying to find a way to get my consultants from various disciplines invested inthe field. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:12 | BrandyGrabow

@tcsalvo @WriteDubC Ours does as well- this gets us some followers b/c it seems lots of students follow theofficial college feed. #wcchat


RT @jrgmckinney: #wcchat I think Twitter is actually a good way for tutors to interact with other writing centers.#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:12 | ASU_WC

#wcchat Does anyone know what Twitter does w/Fb feeds that are too long? Are they rejected? We feedautomaticall from Fb into Twitter.


@wlnewsletter It's a web app that connects to your Twitter account.#wcchat


We would like the opportunity to connect with other tutors, too. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:12 | ASU_WC

@laglowzenski LeeAnn, I can ask our WLN web guy if he can store this, and maybe IWCA's website too?#wcchat


#wcchat It's great that so many WCs follow each other on Twitter. It's like eavesdropping on other centers'activities.


@RollinsSource Not a fan of syncing the posts so they go too both. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:13 | tamuwc

@WLNewsletter Sounds like a plan! I can post the storify link to WLN's FB page, too. #wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL DePaul friends, you're super-knowledgeable about all this. THANKS! And where will your sitefor storing this, Lee Ann? #wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL @wlnewsletter DePaul, you guys seem really up on the tech aspect. Would love a "how to"post somewhere on stat tracking #wcchat


We benefit so much from following other writing centers- tons of great ideas, tips, links, etc. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:15 | tamuwc

What techniques have you used to get consultants involved in your wc twitter feed? #wcchat


There seems to be a distinction between the student-audience twitter and the WC-audience twitter; can it beboth? #wcchat


Is anyone using Twitter in ways that you don't use Facebook? #wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL P. S. - LOVE The Breakroom! #wcchat


@WLNewsletter It's web-based, so it'll all stay in the cloud, I think. http://t.co/50Mo4JwU #wcchat


Or maybe better: is your twitter production (tweets) for students and your reception (reading) primarily the tweetsof other WCs? #wcchat


@BrandyGrabow Great question. How can tutors benefit from our use of twitter? #wcchat


@BrandyGrabow We have just one manage it for now, get the hang of it, and then we'll be giving access to all ofour consultants. #wcchat


Me too! RT @BrandyGrabow: @DePaulUCWbL P. S. - LOVE The Breakroom! #wcchat


@BrandyGrabow we had a desk tutor who was assigned to post#wcchat


@WriteDubC We don't use Facebook at all. #wcchat


#wcchat At NCPTW my intern learned about posting everyday on Fb, w/ a diff. category for each day, and aperson assigned to each one.


#wcchat: TAMU that's what wc's do...SHARE! Of course we should be retweeting from each other's posts.


@wvwritingcenter That seems to be the case for us: reading other WCs but tweeting for students. #wcchat


I also wonder how to address off-campus followers that aren't from other WCs or writing-related groups. #wcchat


@laglowzenski e-mail me for this techie part of posting a link. No need to take up space [email protected] #wcchat


@wvwritingcenter Yes, that seems to be the case for us as well. #wcchat


@WLNewsletter Yes! #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:19 | tamuwc

we use twitter to post helpful writing quotes #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:19 | BMCCWC

We do not have any tutors post to twitter or facebook but we do get tips and ideas from them. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:20 | tamuwc

@tcsalvo I feel like our first audience/responsibility is our campus population. #wcchat


@tamuwc why not? #wcchat


#wcchat: Anyone try injecting some humor in your tweets?


@BrandyGrabow @tcsalvo I agree. Not that we purposely ignore outsiders, but they shouldn't be our focus. Ourfocus is our community. #wcchat


@BrandyGrabow I agree, but when other users follow & retweet workshop announcements, does it lead toconfusion about services? #wcchat


Clarification. consultant connecting to other consultants through their own accounts. Our center account shouldbe for our campus. #wcchat


@jrgmckinney To keep it controlled so there aren't repeats, too much at one time, and not everyone understandsthe role of twitter. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:23 | tamuwc

Yes we do lots of retweeting as well. We retweet things from other WCs and other places. #wcchat


Specifically, users that might be local businesses or community groups that like seeing our writing tips or infoabout our website. #wcchat


@WLNewsletter We want to be taken seriously, but we pepper in some humor 'cause nothing's so serious youcan't make fun of it. #wcchat


Does anyone use twitter to connect to community writing centers or literacy centers? #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:24 | ASU_WC

@tcsalvo We have been fortunate to reach that following as well. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:24 | tamuwc

#wcchat We have 2 private Facebook groups for the content and writing tutors where they post ideas/links for ourpublic Fb page @tamuwc


@tamuwc Do you ever have non-campus folks calling for a consultation appointment? #wcchat


@tcsalvo tcsalvo Good question. I try to put #ncsustudents after all our center tweets to define our audience.#wcchat


@WriteDubC I asked about humor because WLN posts, especially on FB, that have some humor are clicked onand commented on a lot. #wcchat


We have a Facebook page, linked to Twitter. Also a closed Facebook group for current and alum tutors.#wcchat


I think there's an audience for writing advice outside of the academic setting. I often wonder how to reach thatlarger community. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:27 | WACLab

@BrandyGrabow Great idea to distinguish target users! #wcchat


#wcchat wondering about consultant use of twitter and how often they encourage students to use it as part oftheir read/write process


Do any of your schools have social media policies? We have one & had to register our twitter/fb with theuniversity. #wcchat


@tcsalvo Not to my knowledge. College Station is very much the university so there isn't much confusion.#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:27 | tamuwc

@UWMWritingCtr In fact our current Assistant Director just took a job next year heading up the WC at PaceUniversity #wcchat


@ASU_WC Sometimes we tweet/retweet about community events, especially ones involving literacy and writing#wcchat


What about seeking faculty followers who might pass along our tweeted info. to their students? Some FYC facuse twitter in class. #wcchat


@tcsalvo Defining audience is the major issue of using new media (I think) #wcchat


@WLNewsletter We try to avoid sarcasm in our e-correspondence because that particular brand of humor reliesso much on context #wcchat


@tcsalvo Defining audience is the major issue of using new media (I think) #wcchat


@jrgmckinney Our social media policies were written after the WC Facebook and Twitter were up and running.#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:29 | htaylor00

@BrandyGrabow #wcchat Is there an account for all students that anyone can tweet to at NCST?


@jrgmckinney Didn't think to ask about social media policies. Our official campus tweeters don't seem to beconcerned, however. #wcchat


@write4college I am actually unaware of any faculty members here that use it, otherwise it'd be a fantastic use ofit. #wcchat


@jrgmckinney As far as I know, we don't currently. But, I wouldn't be surprised to see it coming. #wcchat


@BrandyGrabow I assumed that students would be our primary audience until others started following. #wcchat


If your school has a #smashup, get your FB and Twitter accounts listed there. See http://t.co/QniECLne #wcchat


@WLNewsletter #wcchat Honestly, never thought to check.


I'm wondering how many of you find it useful to post after WC hours? #wcchat


RT @MuditSharma28: this is meta. tweeting about twitter using twitter. the best way to be good at twitter is totweet it. #fycgop #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:34 | rwmonty

@WLNewsletter A quick check found this: http://t.co/qKbxAgbJ #wcchat.


@WriteDubC It depends on the subject- matter. Pictures always get noticed no matter the hour. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:35 | tamuwc

@WriteDubC After-hours tweeting could be quite useful--tips to the students struggling because they didn't go tothe wc! #wcchat


@WriteDubC Check out http://t.co/2UFPqfoV for a beautiful infographic on the 'science of social media timing'#wcchat


We have a social media policy team at our univ. They advised not to sound desperate, e.g. "we have four tutorswith nothing to do!" #wcchat


Thanks for the great chat, everyone! #wcchat


That's half the point of twitter, isn't it? RT @WLNewsletter: #wcchat Anyone try injecting some humor in yourtweets?


@DePaulUCWbL That infographic is on my desk! #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:37 | tamuwc

What about twitter as a tutoring alternative to wimba classroom or google chat? Useful, or not private enough?#wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL @WriteDubC love me some visualization. that's nice. #wcchat


@tamuwc Good call! I think it would look good on our wall :) #wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL Thanks for sharing! #wcchat


@laglowzenski I just don't think it's practical. I need more than 140 characters to give accurate and helpfulexplanations & advice #wcchat


@WriteDubC I agree. The medium is better for information delivery rather than exchange (with the exception of aTweetChat) #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:40 | USAWritingCente

@WriteDubC @laglowzenski I don't think Twitter would be useful as a tutoring medium. I'm curious if any WCshere use Second Life. #wcchat


@WriteDubC very true. :) #wcchat


@jrgmckinney Sounds like good advice! We post a lot of reminders, I'm afraid of sounding like a mother hen.#wcchat


Useful for quick questions, point to resources, or encouraging visiting a tutor perhaps #wcchat


@WriteDubC I would makes sense to post after hours, right? Twitter does turn off just because the UWC isclosed. #wcchat


@WriteDubC though it does raise the possibility of using twitter to teach conciseness in student writing... #wcchat


Hi all. Kurt Bouman here. Has anyone sought internal/external grant funding to acquire Twitter technology (eg,ipads, etc.)? #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:41 | rhetorikurt

Maybe this chat could be put into an infographic to complement the Storify summary. #wcchat


@WriteDubC @laglowzenski #wcchat Agreed! I doubt students tweet complete questions in 140 characters.Maybe send links to online sources?


@DePaulUCWbL #wcchat I've read that SL is decreasing in use. True?


@laglowzenski If a student needs help with wordiness, twitter tutoring could be a fun and effective way to assisthim/her. #wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL The FYC program at UTEP has used Second LIfe to virtually host the Student Film Festival#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:44 | UTEP_UWC

@write4college I know it has helped me become more aware of my wordiness! #wcchat


@write4college @laglowzenski #wcchat: Twitter forces my wordiness to be chopped down. Helps me too!


@rhetorikurt I haven't, but grants and the WC would be a great chat topic. #wcchat


@WUWritingCenter Thanks! #wcchat


@WLNewsletter @DePaulUCWbL SL didn't take off on campus, and we were reluctant to use it in our WCbecause of the learning curve. #wcchat


@laglowzenski Absolutely. We should save a few minutes at the end of the chat to ask for topics. I was sent onevia the wc listserv. #wcchat


@tamuwc #wcchat Thought we word people have special license to be wordy. NO? Awww...


@WLNewsletter yes, we tweet links to online resources. #wcchat


@PickleInk #wcchat: Neat! Any links to lots of ESL resources?


So who has student followers retweeting you and/or replying to your tweets? Curious to know if wc-studentinteraction is achieved. #wcchat


@tcsalvo @WLNewsletter Good points @ SL. We might use it for writing groups, though. Any other goodplatforms for online group work? #wcchat


Hi, all, so fun to meet you all here! We're excited to hear how you use Twitter in your WC!#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:53 | ucawrtgcenter

@PickleInk @WLNewsletter OH yes, would love some helpful links for ELL students. #wcchat


Thoughts on who controls (or whether / should /shouldn't ctrl) the Twitter acct of a WC--eg, how muchPanopticonning shd there B? #wcchat


@WLNewsletter I must be off, but this chat will be posted somewhere in the near future I hope, yes? #wcchat


@WriteDubC @PickleInk #wcchat Is Dave's ESL Cafe still online? That was excellent last time I peeked in


@DePaulUCWbL I'm a fan of the google products. Haven't tried the hangout on G+, but I've heard good things.#wcchat


@WriteDubC #wcchat I'll chat on e-mail with Lee Ann about getting her Storify archive on the WLN website.


There are two of us from UCA: Joanna and Jennifer. We'll identify by JCP and JSD. #wcchat


@rhetorikurt There are three people who control our UWC twitter and facebook- that's it! #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:55 | tamuwc

Sorry everyone. We got busy and space out this chat. gotta catch up.#wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:56 | ppcctutor

@WLNewsletter Yes, it's still up. #wcchat


@DePaulUCWbL Would Adobe Connect be an option? We've not used it it our WC, but it's been helpful formeetings. #wcchat


@WLNewsletter Perfect! Great chat everyone. Learned a lot. Keep up the good work. The work you all do iswonderful! #wcchat


Tutors and GAs are encouraged to tweet using our Twitter account. They often forget we have one or are toobusy to tweet. #wcchat


@write4college A lot of student organizations retweet us. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:57 | tamuwc

@write4college #wcchat GREAT. That's a huge site with all sorts of useful links for ESL students. All free, I think.


@tamuwc Wonderful! #wcchat


@laglowzenski We haven't explored Google+ yet. Thanks for the tip! #wcchat


@rhetorikurt We have a tutor in charge of the FB&Twitter posts, but our front desk people also tweet updates onwait times, etc #wcchat

02-Feb-12 20:58 | alanbenson

Do you (tamu/ucaw) find that important--that limited control? I get it, but still I wonder--is it an undemocratizingmove for a WC? #wcchat


Two minutes left--unless we're not limiting ourselves to 1 hour :) Topic suggestion for next time? #wcchat


The chat can go on as long as you'd like, but as some of us are leaving, thoughts on future topics? #wcchat


@write4college the hour went fast, didn't it? #wcchat


Oops, we're on Chicago time, so we just joined! Jsd #wcchat


#wcchat As a WC, who do you see as your Twitter audience? Students, consultants, professionals? All theabove?

02-Feb-12 21:00 | syracusewc

@write4college Would it be worthwhile to get some tutors (pro, ug, etc.) involved next time? #wcchat


@rhetorikurt Limited control allows us to be more efficient and effective with our consultants. #wcchat

02-Feb-12 21:00 | tamuwc

@laglowzenski Managing institutional identity while allowing for individual voice. Christy Zinks suggested this onthe listserv. #wcchat


@laglowzenski Sure did! I can hang around a little longer, then it's dissertation time! #wcchat


Topic? How to build followers in a metropolitan comm coll w/ages from 19-93. tough nut to crack so far #wcchat


#wcchat could be useful for post-conference discussion and reflection. #wcchat


@rwmonty Absolutely! The tutor perspective would be great for this chat. #wcchat


@write4college Maybe thoughts on hosting graduate writing groups? #wcchat

02-Feb-12 21:02 | tamuwc

@rhetorikurt #wcchat for us limited control is more a function of time management than undemocratic


Our audience has been students, tutors, and other WCs. Jsd #wcchat


@alanbenson #wcchat Hi Alan! Alan has joined WLN staff. YAY! Glad you're here. Asked Richard about storingthis archive on WLN site


Topic: how best to serve grad students and ESL students.#wcchat


don't forget about Online Talk Time (free) writing center conference next week. http://t.co/xPumUEkk registrationis still open. #wcchat


@write4college @tamuwc I wonder: does the Twitterverse help or impede followers in disambiguating indivdual &institutional voices? #wcchat


RT @write4college: @rwmonty Absolutely! The tutor perspective would be great for this chat. #wcchat


@tamuwc Excellent topic. We have a large international grad. student population who would really benefit from awriting group. #wcchat


@BrandyGrabow Yes! Could even be related to the WCenter discussion about workshops but not limited to it.#wcchat


@rhetorikurt Great question...will take some thought. Keep it in mind for that chat! #wcchat


Topic: idea exchange: best WC / writing / tutoring advice you've ever given or gotten, in 140 char. or less....#wcchat


@rhetorikurt Nice topic. Sounds challenging! #wcchat


With the recent listserv discussion about conducting workshops, would you all like that to be our topic for nextweek? @tcsalvo #wcchat


I like the idea of best advice! Jsd #wcchat


As the suggestions come in, I'm writing them on my list of suggested topics. #wcchat


@tamuwc I agree. We have been trying to organize grad outreach and would love to hear ideas #wcchat


Thanks for a great chat! Looking forward to hearing about next week's topic soon! #wcchat


@tcsalvo I'll tweet it and post it on the wc listserv. #wcchat


@USAWritingCente @tamuwc Me three! Have a great day everyone! #wcchat


Thank you all so much for participating. Hope it was enlightening! Thanks @laglowzenski for offering to storify thechat. #wcchat


Thanks for everything- got some good notes and looking forward to next week! #wcchat

02-Feb-12 21:20 | tamuwc

@laglowzenski Thanks for helping to get this started. I'll DM you soon! #wcchat


@write4college And thanks for your emails to the listserv! #wcchat


@laglowzenski My pleasure :) #wcchat


@write4college thank YOU for the opportunity and collaboration...the WC hive mind has produced some greatdirections and resources #wcchat


@USAWritingCente I agree. We're so glad you joined us! #wcchat


I'll try to be on time next time--Gidd#wcchat


Just finished the inaugural #wcchat with @laglowzenski, et (lots of) al! It was fantastic! So many ideas,perspectives, experiences. . . .


@ppcctutor No worries--as long as you join us! #wcchat


Use Twitter to help students with their wordiness. Should be especially useful in achieving direct theses and topicsent. Thanks #wcchat!

02-Feb-12 21:39 | LamarWC

Quote from #writingfears survey: "I usually don't have any idea where to begin." How much of this do you addressand how? #fycchat #wcchat
