I like Twitter. I like that it forces you to be succinct. (Many people could learn from that!)
My Twitter name is glendab . I haven’t worked out how or why this might be a useful tool yet despite having had an account for sometime. I started by following a bunch of people who seemed to be techi or arty. I liked the idea of being given snippets of info that might lead me to things of particular interest but it hasn’t quite worked out that way – yet.
It is a bit weird getting notices that people are following me when I haven’t actually been twerping (or whatever they call it when you post). Maybe it is that aspect that makes me question how I am currently hooked into this tool – not sure I have my approach right.
As part of the ’12 Things’ PD I also did a search for ASIJ, and I was a little surprised at what came up. One post by a teenager at another school was a little nasty about ASIJ studemts. I think that we need to teach kids that what they put online is PUBLIC. They need to think about how they want to come across in the future as well as now. After all – it is the internet – the WORLD wide web.
