#5 - Collate classroom views  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],___________________________         @daibarnes  
#6 - Let parents follow what          you are up to  Set up a new Twitter account for your class - you will possibly want to 'protect' your updates. Invite parents to 'follow' you, and they can see what the class are up to from any computer (home, work, internet cafe...) at any time of the day or night. They might even tweet back now and again! Iain Hallahan   (@don_iain)

#8 - Short but sweet ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
#9 - Twitter Poll Noel Jenkins  with due respect to  Ian Usher   How do adult opinions differ from the views of the class? Use a twitter poll to collect and graph opinions about a controversial issue. http://twtpoll.com/       ___________________________
#10 - Word Morph Dan Reeve  @danreeve Student stuck trying to find a new or interesting word?  Is the student's writing clique or lacking descriptive language? Use  twitter to send out a word and have your network give the students synonym and other meanings, thereby testing the literacy strength of your PLN.  Or have classrooms connect during writing workshops. Then have the students help each other create  Wordle  clouds of a word and the words that are synonyms, antonyms, and examples to foster stronger and more descriptive writing.  The Wordle clouds become help posters during writing for the rest of the year.   *this wordle created by my 8th grade class, we started with BAD
#11 -  Come together........... Find someone in another class, school, country who is interested in the same topic you are. Following each other on Twitter, share information, resources and ideas. Help each other find answers or even suggest questions ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],____________________________ @don_iain
#12 - Point of View and Character Development ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],____________________________ Heidi Van Riper,  @hlvanrip
#13 - GeoTweets ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],____________________________ @tombarrett   Lesson blog post  
#14 - Global Assembly ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],____________________________ @tombarrett   Assembly blog post
Games ... #15 - Word Play Post a Word and Guess...   Anagrams - post 8 letters and see how many new words can be formed? Use  twtpoll  to  post definitions.  Who can guess the correct meaning? "What does it mean?"   Synonyms?  Antonyms? Homonyms?   __________________ @bookminder
#16 - Twiddeo    __________________ ___________________________  
#17 - Communicate with experts There are loads of experts on Twitter these days, and some are willing to talk to the kids. Find an author, a scientist, a local historian... @turrean NASA  has many twitter streams, as do  NASA Fellows  (teachers who work on NASA projects.)  They're Twitter-friendly! @porchdragon
#18 -  Teachers are often locked into using particular website builders.      @turrean Use a Twitter widget for instant webpage updates. Adding a  Twitter badge  means being able to add instant web updates any time, anywhere.    These updates can be viewed by everyone who visits your website--even parents who've never heard of Twitter. 
#19 - Monitor the learning process It's useful to the students: they become aware of their own learning process + it's a way of collaborative learning. It's useful to the teacher: each students learning process becomes visible and can be evaluated. @driesvangils ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
#20 - How Probable? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],____________________________
#21: Twalter-egos @GeoBlogs Following a discussion with @tonycassidy on Enquiry in Geography, we thought about creating a fictional alter-ego in Twitter who would develop as a 'character' who had a back story. After this had been developed, they could be 'introduced' to classes, who could follow, and do activities based on past tweets. Created 3 characters. The most developed is @pensionerfrank My farming character is being followed by Farmer's Weekly. Blog post with details  HERE  .
#22 -  Scavenger Hunt ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
#23 -  Track with Twitter ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
#24 - Teach bite-sized info ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Alexander the great successfully invaded India in 327BC, but turned back without exerting power. Use coke to loosen tight screws. Most of the world's population lives in the Northern Hemisphere.
#25 - Twitter as a  Research   Diary ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],@tweet4education
#26 - Historical Figures ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Historical recount published on the same date in history would be very powerful.
#27 - Students tweeting current news events ,[object Object],A teacher account -  MrAICTTweetNews  is followed but students who set up an account specifically for tweeting news accounts. They have to tweet at least once during a 7 day period, ensuring that no other pupil has tweeted the same topic. As they complete their coursework they review previous tweets.  @infernaldepart
#28 - Recreating History ,[object Object],The children really enjoyed researching the topic and loved having an audience for their work. This could be repeated with other schools taking on other roles within the plot.
#29 - Twits 'n' Tweets ,[object Object],[object Object]
#30 - Multi-media Class Newspapers ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],______________________________________
#31 - Revision challenges ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],______________________________________ @asober
# 32 – Mass role play A variation on one of the above themes – think of an historical or current scenario in which there are lots of stakeholders, for example, evacuation during WW2. Children can decide whether to be evacuees, members of the host family, mothers back in the cities, fathers away fighting, local children at school with the evacuees and so on.  Set up a hash tag and let them choose account names appropriate to the period (We had a lot of Mauds and Alberts!). This works because any ‘stakeholder’ can post a response to any other so volume of traffic is high. Jen Hughes @jenhughes [Another interesting one was Scott’s last expedition – with meteorologists, zoologists etc etc. Best tweet ever? “I might be some time!”]
dad@hvn ur spshl. we want wot u want & urth 2b like hvn. giv us food & 4giv r sins lyk we 4giv uvaz. don't test us! save us! bcos we kno ur boss. ur tuf & ur cool 4 eva! ok?  # 33 – What’s this? When they have worked this one out, get them to do the same for a poem, a Shakespeare speech or other well known text. Jen Hughes @jenhughes PS Yes, it was The Lord’s Prayer
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Thanks for helping Tom Barrett   Image: ‘ Sharing ‘ If you add a tip (or even if you don't) please tweet about it and the link so more people can contribute. I have created a page for all of the  Interesting Ways  presentations  on my blog . The whole family in one place :-) Have you seen  Maths Maps  yet?
