Tweet To Learn
I learned something tweet! OK, cheesey...but...
Did you know that when you put the #something on Twitter, it tags the post for specific search topics? Ok, but what about this one? Adding the @handle for someone’s specific handle (name) will tag them and alert them to the post.
Maybe you knew this too-it is not new news after all. But what I found interesting is that you can use both of these to communicate and connect with others in the education field.
According to Christina Prospecu (as learned in passing since she was so kind to stop and answer a random stranger’s questions about Tweeting--and I hope I am not misquoting her), educators are taking over Twitter. Whoot! The ultimate collaboration.
Teacher’s--did you know that if you use a specific product, you can @tag that company? Let them know how you use their product, let the world know what works!
I even hear that sometimes cool things come from this. Skype interviews, free t-shirts, extra training. I am working this into my daily routine…#togethereveryoneacheivesmore.
