Twitter Chat Format
We will start with a slow chat. Each week a prompt will be tweeted for students to reply. At the end of the week, I will storify the tweets for the week and post to my webpage for others to see. We may progress to a fast chat. These a designed for a specific date and time. During the 30 minutes, four questions are asked which students respond to. These would be storified at the end of each session and then posted on my webpage.
Twitter Format
We will use the Q1 and A1 format. I will number each question Q1, Q2, etc. for question one, question 2, and so forth. You will attach A1, A2, etc. to correspond your answer to the specific question.
