Blog about Twitter

In my opinion a Twitter discussion is similar to Blackboard Discussion to a certain level only. For instance, both have the ability to form a chain of discussion based on a issue but Twitter is more public while Blackboard is a closed group. Also, Twitter had features that allow you to retweet  a tweet or article tweeted but Blackboard only allows you to comment on a post. In the other hand, Twitter and in-class discussion are different platforms. Twitter creates a discussion based on a constant issue appeared in social media while in-class discussion refers more to a chosen topic by the professor. In using Twitter it allows for a faster share and broad audience while in-class will allows your opinion to bounce off between classmates.

In addition, there needs to be a social media platform for each class. This will helps students to be more engage in the class and aware of upcoming deadlines.  Furthermore, Twitter should be use as a discussion platform instead of blackboard. Twitter, will help more students to be engage and learn from others.
