    Twitter, without a doubt, has become the social network for educators to take their professional development into their own hands. Twitter allows teachers to connect with other educators from around the world, join discussions related to their interests and have a steady stream of resources (to help them teach and learn) available to them whenever, whereever and however.

    Hashtags provide a way for others who are interested in a particular topic to see what you have to say even if they're not following you.  In other words, it allows people to follow topics rather than each other.

      I think that the use of the tools that technology now allows such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram enable us to be more empathetic - e.g. the outpouring of support for #laloche.  Facebook and Twitter helped create connections that allowed people to then get together face-to-face to grieve and provide support.
  • Turkle too often assumes screen-mediated communication comes in only one flavor, which cannot grasp the complexities of our always augmented sociality, to say nothing of how screens are differently used by those with different abilities.
  • We should not conceptually preclude or discount all the ways intimacy, passion, love, joy, pleasure, closeness, pain, suffering, evil and all the visceral actualities of existence pass through the screen. “Face to face” should mean more than breathing the same air.

  • This screen-mediated communication is face-to-face, in person, physical, and close in so many important ways, and distant in only one
  • The camp study, relying on shoddy methods and inaccurate conclusions, exemplifies how cultural fears and emotional appeals can facilitate the spread of unsubstantiated claims, cloaked in science.”
  • Why this presumption of doom?
  • How do you look at everyday people using digital devices to communicate with one another and suppose that they may not even know what conversation and friendship are?
  • hat people who text more often also meet face to face more; that the contemporary technologies of social isolation were, and are, the television and the automobile, not smart phones; that there’s been a recent reversal of the long post–World War II trend toward social isolation.
