Twitter as a Learning Tool


May I start by saying you will love this video! I love Grey’s anatomy, and this episode made me a believer in twitter when I was more against twitter than anyone I know.  In this Episode Dr. Bailey tweets about her surgeries in order to teach many different doctors at different hospitals about the different techniques she uses.  The Chief of surgery was strongly against Bailey tweeting her surgeries because he felt it was in appropriate, but he becomes a believer too when the all the tweeting leads to saving a life! Watch to find out how… In my math classes I may not save a life by tweeting about mathematical formulas and giving study hints, but I may e able to help students with their homework and studying for tests by perhaps tweeting practice problems and solutions to study.
