I have to admit I was pretty impressed with the amount of information I could have access to by doing a simple search. The content embedded within each individual post was pretty cool. I can definitely see how educators use this tool to their advantage. They are able to tap into new ideas and tips for their class rooms in the matter of a few minutes.
I definitely plan to familiarize myself with Twitter a little more now that I know of its capabilities! How are you guys using Twitter right now? More for personal or professional?
Coincidentally, just today, Goodwin College started following me on Twitter. I went to the Goodwin College Twitter Profile, and found this bio:

The Official Twitter Page for Goodwin College, a NEASC Accredited Nonprofit College Specializing in a Career-Focused Education.

If you are not following Goodwin College, type into the Twitter search box @GoodwinCollege
and see what the College is tweeting and decide if you want to follow your own college.
It seems the account tweets mostly about events on campus, but if you follow the account, you will find out.
Twitter is really cool! I used it for professional reasons. It is amazing the number of people who tweet all kinds of professional resources and advice. I really found it helpful for work and school. I would really recommend it as a resource. Start tweeting, you will get hooked!!
ReplyDeleteCheck out the Goodwin Twitter page, as Judy stated, they mostly post events. It could be a place to start a professional resource page for staff and students.
