After reading the article from our class reading about the use of Twitter, I can say that I still haven't been able to see the relevance to its use in a classroom setting. I have used Twitter over the years, primarily to keep up with a few missionary friends in Africa, Recently, however, I started to follow some "math experts" who are addressing issues with the new Common Core and he has been interesting and insightful at times. And it lend itself to a few laughs as well. I guess you really have to get committed to Twitter to fully understand its importance to the educational setting.
7 Things you should know about ... Twitter
I am in the same boat. I just can't dive fully into twitter. I follow some football coaches and teachers, but I don't know how I would use it in my classroom. Other teachers in my school think it is great, but I just don't see it. Glad to see someone else feels the same way I do.
