While speaking to a friend, he asked, "What if a student doesn't buy into the idea of his own workspace and working on a project?" Good question. Getting the students to buy in is crucial. It has always amazed me that school works at all.

I’m sure you are coming to realize the awesome power of Twitter and your PLN. But you may be finding it a bit hard to keep up. Given the global nature of your PLN, you have information coming at you 24 hours a day. Not only that, but from several different programs. I have profiles on LinkedIn, Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. I save myself time by streemlining all my inboxes to one nifty Social Media Dashboard. A Social Media Dashboard allows you to view all your incoming messages in one place, but also allows you to filter incoming messages and send messages to multiple social networks simultaneously. I personally selected TweetDeck (see the screencast below) for its ease of use, but there are other programs out there. HootSuite is another popular option. Select one that suites your needs and use it.

Regardless if you choose to blog with your students as suggested above, reflection is a critical process in learning. Blogging is, in essence, a reflection: your inner thoughts about your experiences (and a great way to demonstrate your own digital literacy skills and expectations to your students).

Between my Twitter, online PLN (i.e., The Educator’s PLN) and GoogleReader, I could spend hours absorbed in reading the content on my computer. But in reality, where does reading get me if I don’t have time to reflect and apply, other than twisted in a mayhem of endless links, without any direct focus. Schedule time to read, but don’t feel like you have to read everything or follow every link. The last time I looked, I had 520 unread messages waiting in my GoogleReader. I have a timer by my computer. I set it for 25 minutes. When the timer goes off, I move on to something else. I need to allow time for my brain to absorb everything and reflect.

While many of his 25 ways to use Twitter in the classroom in the Talk and Produce section are geared towards Middle and High School, I believe that all the “Watch” examples are stepping stones for our younger students who are tweeting as a class.  In the “Talk” and “Produce” sections, I can also see ways that the examples can be tweaked and adapted for elementary grades.

While your students likely won't see Timur Bekmambetov's film Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter in theatres (it's rated R), there's a chance they might read the book it's based on. In his mashup of historical details and fictional supernatural conspiracy, author Seth Grahame-Smith imagines Abraham Lincoln's life as a secret quest to rid the U.S.
