I too feel frustrated by my occasional forays into twitter. I get a strong sense it requires discipline, focus and a purposeful approach to succeed. Am not quite there. Any chance that the colleagues who ran what I dimly recall as the 12 days of Christmas course on social media will run it again?

That is useful to read sue thanks! Having burnt my fingers on Twitter I've avoided it. I can see the value of chatting this way but ... still fear that some meaning may be lost or worse misunderstood. And oh it's so difficult to retract in 140 characters! ha ha but look out for me, I might give it another go!

The value of conversations...
Today you may bump into a colleague who goes on to talk about the weather or the restaurant visited last night; or the interesting journal article just read, a new approach to teaching.
Educators on Twitter are sharing the same rich conversations 140 characters at a time.
Yes the banal conversations we overhear as we go about our daily lives also happen on Twitter. You choose who and what to listen to. Twitter is only as good as the people you choose to follow and what those people share. Choose wisely and you can engage with many educators across the globe.
