Twitter

I personally believe there is no place for twitter in education. I think only harm can come from teachers having it. Students and parents don't need to know what their teacher is doing all day. If the teacher wants to share something about what is happening in the classroom, then blog about it or email it. Don't tweet. Twitter is supposed to be for entertainment purposes, not educational. Twitter is a social network and it needs to be keep away from schools. I know some people feel that Twitter is a way for teachers to reach students, but I feel blogging or emailing about reminders works just as well. And you don't have to worry about students hash tagging you in something inappropriate. So just say no to Twitter.
