Twitter et comment s'en servir Les tweets sont des télégrammes décachetés. Bernard Pivot, 25.05.12, 9h04. note du 21/05/2013 – du « miroir promené au bord de la route » (Stendhal) toujours de nombreuses arrivées sur Twitter, hier par exemple ensemble @MartinWinckler (bravo Marc, plus de 1100 followers en même pas 24 heures), ou le grand chef d’Apple, Tim Cook – et de mon côté plus de 9000 followers désormais (dont probablement les 4/5ème sous pseudo, ce que j’ai un peu de mal à comprendre : on n’a guère l’envie de suivre réciproque si on ne sait rien du nouvel abonné), donc je remets en Une ce billet (sans le modifier, d’ailleurs) ; nous autres, les « vieux » de Twitter, utilisons les différents codes #hashtags RT #ff ou :-) comme des éléments de vocabulaire qui peuvent paraître déroutants, mais est-ce que jongler avec les 140 caractères et leur frontière n’est pas un enjeu qui mérite de se les approprier ? note du 18/05/2013 20 000 visites atteintes pour ce billet, merci ! a – 4 ans déjà... b – choisir son identifiant
Twitter is a Teacher Superpower! “We all know that education budgets are getting cut more and more, and that meaningful professional development opportunities have unfortunately become a bit of an oxymoron in education. Not only can being a “connected educator” help change that, but it can also provide you with ongoing inspiration and support. I’d even go as far to argue that being connected will be the most impactful thing you can do in your career.” Elana Leoni, blogger for Edutopia. I will even go far enough to say that becoming a connected educator is a Teacher Superpower! While I can come up with pretty new and innovative ideas while planning inside my classroom, I can gain so much more from sharing my ideas, collecting ideas on Twitter (known jokingly as #ideabandits), and connecting with other educators to collaborate about even more inspiring ideas. Here is how: Get yourself logged onto Twitter and sign up for an account using your computer, iPad, or smartphone. Next step is to add an image of yourself.

Twitter aide à mieux comprendre l'évolution de la linguistique La diffusion d'un nouveau mot dépendrait de l'influence géographique, mais aussi démographique des villes. Des chercheurs ont réussi à cartographier l'évolution de plusieurs termes grâce à Twitter aux Etats-Unis. Les réseaux sociaux permettraient d'étudier la diffusion des tendances linguistiques dans un pays. C'est ce que démontre une étude menée par des chercheurs*, qui ont cartographié la propagation de nouveaux mots et ont suivi leur évolution dans plusieurs villes américaines. Cela, en se servant de Twitter comme d'un outil.

The Twitteraholic’s Ultimate Guide to tweets, hashtags, and all things Twitter Most educators who learn to use Twitter effectively say they learn more from their personal learning network (PLN) on Twitter than they’ve achieved from any other forms of professional development or personal learning. Unfortunately educators often dismiss Twitter, or fail to see the value of Twitter, when they’re first introduced to Twitter. Our aim of this post is to provide all the information you need to learn how to use Twitter effectively as an educator. We regularly update this post with new information.

Utilizing Twitter Chats for Professional Development Each week, educators from around the world take part in various conversations on Twitter known as “chats.” These conversations have become an excellent way for educators to connect on relevant topics, share resources and best practices, all while challenging each other’s thinking. The premise of a Twitter chat is simple. Each lasts for 60 minutes, moderators pose questions on a predetermined topic, and participants use a consistent hashtag (#) to communicate. Questions are posed in a sequential “Q1, Q2” (Question 1, 2, etc.) format over the 60-minute time period. A variety of tools such as Tweetdeck, HootSuite, Tweetchat, etc., can be utilized to aggregate the chat into a single stream to ease the conversation process. Recently, I pulled together six educators from around the country who are leaders in this area. Blumengarten (@cybraryman1) has cataloged a list of Twitter chats, which can be foundhere. Some recommended chats include:
Some Twitter basics for teachers who are absolute beginners What a "personal learning network"(PLN) means to teachers based on a survey done by Caroline O'Bannon. La twittclasse vire au clash Aurélie et ses petits élèves étaient très contents d'être la première twittclasse de la Haute-Savoie. Ils le sont un peu moins d'être la première interdite, après un volte-face de la hiérarchie sur fond officiel de paranoïa sécuritaire. En Haute-Savoie, la première twittclasse du département a dû fermer sa timeline fin septembre, peu de temps après son ouverture, un rétropédalage qui semble inédit. Il existe actuellement plus de 200 twittclasses en France qui fonctionnent sans problème, en accord avec leur hiérarchie. Il est fini le temps des expérimentations audacieuses de la pugnace Laurence Juin, la première à avoir utilisé le site de micro-blogging Twitter dans un cadre pédagogique en France. Le Centre national de documentation pédagogique donne même la marche à suivre. @classe_acou @cm1cm2auve @classe_fulleren Nous sommes désolés, mais nous n’avons plus l’autorisation de twitter pour le moment.
