The Twitter Tutorial

Why can't people just communicate with one another?
Why do they have to do impersonal posts and status updates on websites to tell people about their day and lives? If they have a life why are they on the Internet or wasting their time on their phone sending twitters all day?
I think these programs are silly and are why today's society youth aren't very good at communicating and have real issues with bullying especially cyber bullying!

I think it can be a great tool to talk to parents in a classroom situation! However it does require the parents to have the Internet and a computer... It is also quite public which could cause issues within the classroom.

There are practical ways to employ twitter in the classroom, catering for those students who are technologically minded but it is quite limiting as you can only write 140 characters.

I wouldn't employ twitter in my classroom, I think that it is more harmful to the students than it is good! Would it really be worth the trouble?
