A Flash of Inspiration

Going to check the ELPC twitter feed and I was hit by a flash of inspiration - lets do Twitter in Education as the next topic.

This post is going to be a list of things to look at in coming days.

• Web 2.0 Teaching Tools twitter tweets for higher education: blog post (2007) with thoughts and links
• Can we use Twitter for educational activities?: Conference paper on Scribd, should check for similar tagged items
• Blog by Carol 50 Ideas on Using Twitter for Education: quick overview shows an interesting list, comments should be interesting
• How to Use Twitter for Education (in a Real Classroom): YouTube video to watch, some comments
• Using TWITTER in Education: pretty bad colour scheme but a big list of links with comments
• Laura Walker Nine great reasons why teachers should use Twitter: Large amount of "stuff", lots of comments and trackbacks
• Faculty Focus Twitter in Higher Education: Usage Habits and Trends of Today’s College Faculty: wants an email address for a document, lets hope I don't get burned ...
• Wired Campus Professor Encourages Students to Pass Notes During Class -- via Twitter: Newspaper type article, sounds interesting and probably has stuff to follow up on
• Wired Campus A Professor's Tips for Using Twitter in the Classroom: Another newspaper like article

And this was the first page of Google results for "education use twitter", the missing one was the conference paper repeated on slideshare.

NCIS Time!
