  • presentation about how Twitter and wikis can be used by teachers to create their own personal learning network
  • To help teachers in this process, Gina has set up a wiki Twitter4Teachers which contains pages of useful contacts divided up according to subject and area of interest.
  • I suggest you use Twitter Search to create RSS feeds for all those people who you are particularly interested in (your core group)and then subscribe to them in Google Reader so you can read their messages all in one place when you have the time. To do this, go to Twitter Search and put in the username of someone you want to follow then click on Search to generate the latest results. Click on the link Feed for this query on the right hand side of the page and copy the feed in the address bar which should look like the example below with the name of the person you want to track replaced by the word username: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?lang=en&q=username

  • In Google Reader, click the Add a subscription button and paste in the feed. Click Add and wait until the messages load. When you've finished scanning the tweets, click the Mark all as read button and you're done. Now whenever a new tweet is sent or someone replies to the person you are tracking, you will see all their messages appear in bold in your reader like in your email client. To help you manage your subscriptions, you can create different folders and assign all your Twitter feeds to the same one. Easy.
