Quality Twittering
Perhaps you have been following for a while in Twitter. If you have, then you have probably noticed as with expository writing and blogging, there are several types of tweets. If you are only twittering with your family, ”Heading home from work.” might be completely appropriate. However, if you plan to use twitter to build your professional learning network, with each update you should endeavor to add something of value. Remember, this is no different than a conversation with friends; so, say something helpful, interesting, or just plain entertaining each time you update.
For those of you who plan to use Twitter to grow your professional learning network, John Welsh at “The Digital Time offers the new Twitterer suggestions for writing successful Tweets. Another resource that you might find helpful (especially, for those like me who like a little structure) is Nicole Nicholay’s Tweet Plan for making Twitter a valuable part of your professional learning network tools.
