I know this doesn't fit in with our research focus, but I thought I'd include this in case it comes in handy. The blog entry has a few reasons why teachers should consider using twitter.

I think the approach that we need to consider is how to help students manage their lives (at least their academic ones) with technology. We need to figure out what the parameters are, and then find ways to teach this. A noble and challenging idea since like all of us students are drawn to allure of the digital world. As stated in the article: "If you break off the Internet, so what? They've got 3G on their phones and iPads,'' he said. "Instead, come up with a rule and express it."

And to help students manage online and real life interactions, teachers need to get that experience first-hand, so they know what it's like. (Yet, governing bodies like the Ontario College of Teachers recently announced teachers should not use any social media.)

I think that as a group we need to address the issue of how to approach managing wireless technology in the class. Just based on the chatter following the student's presentation and what has surfaced in our own group. If we don't examine this issue then it will end up undermining most of what we try and accomplish.

I totally agree. I'm not sure if you saw on twitter, but the Coquitlam school district is putting in fibre-optics and will be creating a digital code of conduct so that students can bring/use devices in class.
