Here's my Twitter thread for this week's digital lab! I rambled a bit, as I often do, but you can read the whole thing here. it's a good thing Twitter threading is a thing, as I had a lot of thoughts! 💁‍♀️💡#525W19

Twitter holds much promise as a learning tool. Students of prograssively younger ages will have been oriented with social media sites from early in their development. Thus, teaching them through these sites communicates info through a framing with which they're familiar. #525W19

@BookDevon Hi! My main reading interests are fantasy, horror and crime fiction, and I really like graphic novels/comics as well 😁

[Ely, MSLIS & MSLT @eam382]

@YasmineShamsel1 Very compact graphic, and very readable! I like that there's a light background that's easy on the eyes, and that questions are included among each step of the plan. This allows the instructor to ask the question to themselves before asking students in class.

@Twhitneydrexel A timeline format for a timeline-making instruction plan, talk about meta! 😂 Excellent graphic that flows carefully and is easy to follow.

I really like the color combinations you chose. The reds, browns and yellows all compliment each other. Very eye-catching altogether!

also: if you're on the desktop version of Twitter, right-clicking the image should provide a "view image in new tab" if you'd like to see the full-size version

a couple more ideas I had, couldn’t resist!

A few more ideas: 9th-12th grade English #525W19

have each students redesign one of the pilgrims in Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales for a modern day setting

they can rewrite their passage, dress up while reciting it, or even draw their pilgrim or recreate them with photos

Here's the @threadreaderapp version, using the tool I made mention of towards the end! Just @ the account on the thread you want with "unroll", and it will automatically convert it for long-form reading. https://t.co/NFBy2ksaVh

See you soon. 🤖

[Ely, MSLIS & MSLT @eam382]

for this last idea I’d recommend @Spotify or @Playmoss

both have playlist/mix features that make adding tracks easy (though Playmoss is dependent on YouTube links and isn’t the most legal option, unlike Spotify)

one last idea (I swear), for 5th to 10th grade English: a book report music mix. students can put compile music tracks in mixes relating to a book/character(s)

they could design album art & include liner notes detailing how each track/lyrics relate to the subject #525W19

[Ely, MSLIS & MSLT @eam382]

@AlvinYen2 a super cute idea! CNY is more widely celebrated than is often acknowledged in the US, and introducing kids to the holiday and its traditions would makes for neat journal entries

I think kids would also enjoy writing about the sign they fall under in the Chinese Zodiac as well

[Ely, MSLIS & MSLT @eam382]

@murro_heather No problem! I remember my HS English teacher having us divide into groups to remake scenes of Othello in modern settings (my group did the final confrontation with Iago in a 70s roller rink), it makes Shakespeare a little less dry for teens

@YasmineShamsel1 This is a perfect scenario for helping students with "netiquette." There's plenty of times one can be tempted to argue online, but determining how to approach a disagreement (and whether that person is worth engaging with!) are both important skills to attain.

[Yasmine Shamseldin @YasmineShamsel1]

9-12SS: Teachers keep the educational discussion going by tweeting thought provoking or life skills questions. An example would be " How can I discuss something with someone I disagree with?" or "How can I disagree with someone while learning from them?" #525W19

[Donna @Donna21672575]

Elementary 3-5. I would use it for a Language Arts class. Give a subject matter and each student tweet a 140 character portion of the story-could be fiction or nonfiction. Student would include specific information/details/new vocab. Each contributes until story is done. #525W19

9-12ELA Students can use Twitter for discovering credible sources. Wading through the dense waters of the internet and determining source validity is a valuable skill. Classes can create a source library for future research based on topic. #525W19
