Twitter has been used by various school districts, administrators, educators, and students. Twitter is a form of social media used to broadcast or tweet daily events by the minute. Educators who use Twitter are opening a diverse educational environment. They are choosing to not simply rely on their communication with their students to take place in the classroom but also through the internet. Educators can use Twitter as an open forum for activities, assignments, or just to understand the thoughts of their students. Twitter allows students who are registered to follow their teacher and make comments to their posts. Students can learn of new events taking place and upcoming dates. Twitter is a new generation chat room. I like the idea of teachers using Twitter to post important articles, facts, or quotes from important people that students may not have read otherwise.

Google Groups can be used by teachers to set up and assign
study group forums that their students can join and participate in open
discussion. Students can also browse similar or interested topics and see what
others have to say about a specific topic or subject.
