Article for Educ 552
Monday, October 15, 2012
What did you learn from using Twitter? I think twitter has its use. It came up roses when I sent out a plea for help on Maps testing. Had a good answer in less than an hour. I don't honestly think my personal tweets are generic enough to be of value to those who follow. If it isn't of value it becomes white noise.... another droning engine you could care less about on a busy highway... what is the point?
Think about the content that you gained from those you followed as well as what you learned about Twitter itself. I'm not sure I gained a lot of content from Twitter. Yes the Peru 552 class was good, but nothing pertaining shop teachers really at all. I don't know... maybe I need to become the "shop teacher Twitter extraordinare" and get a following.
Who was the most interesting person or persons that you followed? Why? I don't want to lie, so I wont. I get a huge kick out of Fake Bo Pelini.... I coach as well and some of the things he comes up with are just priceless for a football coach. I also like Jim Gaffigan..... Funny. So entertainment over edutainment summarizes how I use Twitter. Nothing wrong with a good laugh to put a good spin on a day.
Do you think you’ll continue to use Twitter personally, professionally and/or both after this assignment is complete? I am not sure. Kind of going through a huge life changer and am just crushed for time. With more time maybe..... I do think I will check in for the laughs from the comedic tweets.
Week 7 Blogpost
I kind of like twitter....I found Edubib. It would be useful for writing papers for classes online. I don't know if my blog is a great resource for students. I can see parts of it, but seems very time consuming and reinventing the oral communication wheel. I see maybe 30 different kids daily. Seems kind of Rube Goldberg to say hey look at my blog vs. just tell them.
