Instructional Media Center: Twitter: What will you say in 140 characters? - 0 views

  • Twitter is a form of "mircroblogging" similar to status updates in Facebook except you do not need to be invited or approved as a friend (although you do have the power to change that).  You are limited to 140 characters.

High School Teachers Combat "Txt-spk" by Encouraging Blogging - 0 views

  •  
    StageofLife.com thinks the answer to this phenomenon lies not in pushing against new social media, but rather embracing it: by encouraging high school students to blog. StageofLife.com is a website for the generation growing up with social media embedded into their daily lives to meet, share stories, and learn about those in their generation and other stages of life. It is an educational resource as well, offering lesson plans and contest ideas to educators. One of the most recent creative writing lesson plans is quite innovative: its goal is to break students out of the restrictive environment of 140-character word limits while at the same time promote the use of social media in the classroom. StageofLife.com believes that blogging and other social media is an integral part of the lives of current high school students, and should be incorporated into English classes around the country.
