    Twitter!! I have learned that Twitter is a great resource for teachers. It is very interesting that Twitter is utilized by more teachers than business professionals. It probably helps a lot of parents get into something new too.

    Hi Dave, I think that this is a great resource for any teacher who is considering getting into the educational realm of Twitter. I agree that Twitter can give teachers a refreshing look at education, away from the everyday politics in a building. I've really been enjoying finding new resources and finding inspiring educators. Great article!

    Twitter has become one of my favorite social media tools! I am finding so many more resources to share with my teachers. I think this article is one I want to share with my colleagues to get them going!

    In high school I never would have thought that Twitter could be used as a resource in the classroom, but it mostly definitely can be. It's a great tool for both teachers and students as a sharing platform and connecting with others. I will use Twitter in my future classroom and hope that other teachers will be on board with the idea, too!

    I have experienced twitter use in the classroom numerous times through my experience during college. I think it is a great way to utilize social media in a safe way. Students can easily share information because they use twitter all the time. I think this website could be used by both teachers and students because they will need to know how to use twitter in the classroom. I defiantly want to use Twitter in my classroom in the future.

    1. I can see myself using Twitter in my classroom in the future. I am still overcoming my hesitation to use social media in an educational setting...I think it is just going to take time and continued practice! :-) 2. The resource deals mostly with teacher use, but the tool could be used with teachers and students. 3. There are many different social media tools that could be used with students. The important part is selecting tools that are appropriate for the audience.
