An interesting blog post on teachers blogging and Ten Websites to Help Students Connect with Books -found on Twitter this week10 steps for Educators new to twitter
The following was prepared by Joey Estes for a parent technology night.
Twitter is a Cool Tool
• By joining Twitter, you can connect with people all over the world about things that interest you.
• Imagine having literally thousands of people to bounce ideas off of, share best practices, and to give you recommendations for your next good read.
• All information is shared via 140 characters or less.
Time to Join!
• Once you have decided that Twitter is something you would like to explore, go to the website and sign up for an account. It’s free!
Following
• Once you have joined, you will need to find people to follow.• This means that you find people who have the same interests as you, or people you find interesting.
• Maybe you want to know what Time magazine has to say.
• Or maybe your kids are interested in Justin Bieber.
Now it’s time to interact.
• Anytime you see the @ sign in front of a name, it is like someone is talking to or about that person directly.
Links• You will often see a link that is a small jumble of letters and numbers. This is a smaller link taking the place of a super long link.
• The real link looks like this: http://www.boston.com/community/groups.html?slPage=showBlogPost&slGroupKey=0cf59848-a680-4169-abad-ba4fa2c99f46&slBlogKey=Blog:c55b1ea4-61d4-4827-90ab-574b44d3b002@D|9;36|CommGroup0cf59848-a680-4169-abad-ba4fa2c99f46|&slBlogPostKey=Blog:c55b1ea4-61d4-4827-90ab-574b44d3b002@D|9;36|CommGroup0cf59848-a680-4169-abad-ba4fa2c99f46|Post:f7a50b5e-a2a9-4b6d-b9df-bd8345fab89b&plckFindCommentKey=
