    I disagree with this article - first, there isn't sufficient data, and I think it all depends in how Twitter is used. I tend to think of Twitter as more of a collection space of ideas and links. What I think is flawed in the research is that Twitter doesn't provide context (source of previous knowledge) or sufficient data for the brain to chunk or organize. I think the author is comparing the effectiveness of a wrench and a hammer while viewing a nail.

But, Los Angeles history teacher Enrique Legaspi disagrees with the naysayers. Last year he went to a workshop that discussed ways to use Twitter in teaching and now his students-even the shy ones-at Hollenbeck Middle School in East L.A. are speaking up more."
