Innovative Uses
O Many colleges are beginning to use twitter
during lectures. At the University of TexasDallas a history professor began using twitter
in her 90 person lecture. She found that the
class was too big for real conversations so
she began to have the students use twitter.
During the lecture students would post
messages or ask questions which were then
displayed on a screen at the front of the
class. The professor found that this
encouraged students to get involved.
