Blog About Twitter


A twitter discussion is similar to a blog discussion in the sense that you can see a person’s comment and reply to it, but on blackboard it is way more complicated. A blog discussion on twitter is an simple as logging in and reading all the tweets people have posted! You can click reply and you would be able to give your response to the person’s tweet. And at the same time on your page you can view all the tweets you have written and all the retweets you have written, which makes it a lot more convenient than a blackboard discussion through threads. When it comes to an in-class discussion, twitter is very similar to them because in both you can go back and forth extremely fast. The only difference is that when you reply to a tweet you have a certain number of words you can reply at once, so you might have to have many tweets instead. In an online class room going back and forth and saying what you want to say is very possible. Nonetheless, twitter discussions are very similar to in class discussions and blackboard thread discussions. But of course I would say many of us would prefer a tweet!
