Twitter Questions

1.       What did you learn from Twitter? Think about the content that you gained from those you followed as well as what you learned about Twitter itself.

I feel like I have learned so much from Twitter. I feel so much more comfortable in some teaching areas because I know there are so many resources on Twitter that I never knew about before. This is a wonderful site to have as an educator and I LOVE any chance I get to collaborate with other teachers because I feel that we don’t get an opportunity to do that very often. I used to think that Twitter was more of just a social media website as far as a place where people went to let everyone know what they had for lunch that day etc. but I have learned that it is so much more useful than that.

2.       Who was the most interesting person or persons that you followed? Why? Be specific and provide examples

I honestly thought Mrs. Feldmann was very interesting to follow. I felt that you always had updates on websites and interesting technology pieces that you were currently learning at the time. I thought it was nice that everyone else could be updated on the things that you were learning as well and not even having to actually be at the meeting or conference.

3.       Do you think you’ll continue to use Twitter personally, professionally and/or both after this assignment is complete? Why or Why not?

I think that I will continue to use Twitter forever for professional reasons. I really don’t see myself using it for personal reasons. I really don’t get into the social media as much unless I can see a purpose for needing to know something or a way in which I can benefit from knowing it. This is the reason that I will continue to use Twitter because there are so many ways that I can use for educational and professional reasons.
