  • Rule Based Writing: Related to the above is the idea that when you change the rules (context) around any written communication you necessarily change the content of such an utterance. Rules rather than hindering communication can actually be really productive (for the long version of this argument read about Oulipo). Because Twitter is based on SMS technology it limits communication to 140 characters, it is surprising what develops out of this limit, and how quickly one starts to think in messages of 140 characters.
  • Grammar: Surprisingly Twitter is actually good for teaching grammar.
  • Students can follow someone else who is on Twitter, who interests them.

  • Through Twitter you can “track” a word. This will subscribe you to any post which contains said word.
  • Or, you can track an event, a proper name (I track Derrida for example), a movie title, a store name

    Do you have any suggestions for using SecondLife in education?

    我想也許可以用在生涯輔導上，讓學生認識不同的職業，去嘗試有興趣的職業，體驗職場生活。

    That's a good idea. I met a salesclerk one who spoke English very fluently. I asked him for tips on learning English well, and he said that he learned a great deal from SecondLife. Since the operating system and chat is all in English, he was motivated to pick up the language and use it correctly to communicate with others and to experience the "flow" of the game optimally (see Csíkszentmihályi). Although his primary goal was the playing experience, he learned effectively and with a high level of motivation, genuine feedback/reinforcement, and collaboration/interaction through the SecondLife forum.
