Twittering Videos - Module 2 / Assignment 4

The video tutorials about using Twitter explained several features that were less familiar to me.  The hashtag search feature helps tweeters with a common interest find relevant tweets.  I can see how this would be useful in the school setting.  I will look for more information on hashtags to make sure I use them correctly.  References to 2 sites, HootSuite and TweetDeck, brought to light something new to me.  I'll have to investigate these further.  The video overview of them was brief.  The video segment of how Twitter is used in a school in California revealed how students can find their voice through Twitter.  Such a support for shy students would be significant to their success in school.  Through the videos, I can see how Twitter could be used in the classroom as an enjoyable and appropriate means for student learning.
