7 Twitter Users to Follow If You Are Interested in Education Technology A great mix of individual experts and enthusiasts and education technology professionals to follow and stay informed with. Guest post by Maria Rainier. Though Twitter’s contribution to the world of social media and progressive society was at one time a strongly argued point, there is no doubt today that the popular social media platform has become a valuable tool for various aspects of education. Sure, Twitter can be the perfect place to waste hours on mundane details about people’s lives or worthless celebrity gossip. But, the microblogging platform also enables us to create and participate in meaningful conversations concerning education, technology, and society. Twitter has played a growing role in technology within the classroom and in promoting education technology to the world.

Stealthy Trick Makes Facebook Look Like an Excel Spreadsheet Now you can get away with cruising around Facebook at work, even when your boss is peering over your shoulder. Well, as long as the boss doesn't look too closely. Even the laziest slacker can look busy in a jiffy with this interactive adaptation of many of Facebook's functions. Simply go to HardlyWork.in, click "Gimme Dem Spreadsheets," enter your Facebook credentials, and there's your Facebook newsfeed, all done up to look exactly like an Excel spreadsheet. It's not just a static graphic, either — HardlyWork.in lets you search for Facebook friends by entering names into the formula bar, load more items, check your newsfeed, wall, or tag photos, hover to see who liked a post, and there's even a boss switch (the spacebar) that immediately changes everything into a vast sea of spreadsheet numbers all nestled within their legitimate-looking cells. The only thing missing? Don't be surprised if there's a lot of spreadsheet "work" going on when you report back to the office on Tuesday.

All About Twitter Hashtags After writing my Teacher Challenge guest post on using Twitter to build your PLN, I was asked by a number of people about hashtags. I know when I first started using Twitter, it took me a little while to get my head around what the # symbol meant. This is a handy feature of Twitter that is worth learning about. What is a hashtag? The # symbol + a word/acronym in a tweet is called a hashtag. Why use hashtags? There are so many tweets flying around at any one time that they can get lost in the crowd. If you click on a hashtagged word in any tweet, you can find a list of other tweets with that hashtag. Hashtags can help you connect with people who have similar interests. If you use a desktop application like TweetDeck, you can add a column with all the tweets on #daily5 so you don’t miss anything. In TweetDeck just click on the + sign at the top of your screen and then put #daily5 (or your favourite hashtag) into the search box. Hashtag etiquette Where do you put hashtags? Who makes up hashtags?

Twitter Series-A New Kind Of Twitter PD This week I am going to do a series of posts on Twitter. I get asked a lot of questions about it so I though, why not write about it and put all the details in one place. You can read Part 2 here and Part 3 here. Today I am starting with Twitter Professional Development. As many times as I have talked to folks, done workshops for and even preached about Twitter, there are some that just won't (for whatever reason) jump in. Huh? Yep. Take a step back and think about PD done about Twitter. After the example comes the registration process. Then comes the terminology. And there is still so much more to cover... Now comes the first Tweet. When someone leaves this session one of twothings will happen. They will be super excited about it all. Then there are the others. I used to teach PD like that. So I had to do something different.. I developed a new method of teaching folks about Twitter where I don't actually teach them how to use Twitter. I always break my Twitter PD into several sessions.
L’expérience Twitter d’une classe de terminale bac pro J’ai récemment découvert via Twitter qu’une classe de terminale bac pro vivait une « expérience » Twitter. J’ai commencé par lire le blog. J’ai voulu en savoir davantage. C’est pour cela que j’ai demandé à Laurence Juin, l’enseignante de cette classe, de répondre à mes questions. Rencontre : 1-Tout d’abord, pouvez-vous vous présenter ? 2-Parmi vos élèves, vous enseignez à une classe de terminale bac pro commerce. Sur le temps scolaire, Twitter est utilisé pour favoriser l’interactivité dans le cours : alternant cours classique et présence devant un poste informatique, l’élève devient acteur de son cours et pas seulement consommateur. Hors temps de classe : Il est support à un soutien scolaire lorsque l’élève est demandeur. 3-Pour quelles raisons avez-vous souhaité démarrer cette expérience ? J’ai vu ensuite en ce nouvel outil l’occasion d’ utiliser les TICE dans mes cours et comme support à ma pédagogie. 5-Comment ont réagi vos élèves au début de l’expérience ?
