Interesting social app that allow you to message (anonymous) people who are within a certain range of your phone... so far it has been used by protesters, but how can we use it for educational purposes?
In a group of 125 students at an anonymous medium-sized public college in the
Midwest, 70 students used Twitter to access information and complete class
assignments; the remaining 55 students used a more typical Internet-based
course-management system and billboard.
A research was conducted between students who are using twitter and students who are using internet-based- course-management for educational purposes .
