Twitter Explained

Hey
Hey! 
I am so excited that so many of you have put in countless hours for this #TPTSellerChallenge. I have loved reading your posts and seeing your makeovers! 
This weeks tip is TWITTER! I love using twitter for so many reasons. If you follow my blog, then you know that I have a classroom twitter account and all my parents are connected! 
Even if your parents don’t want to create an account, they can still follow along!
Want to know how?

Back to your personal Twitter…
I think Twitter is  FANTASTIC for professional development and helping expand your PLN. Plus, you’re hitting a complete new market! 
Watch the video below to see how to work all those crazy buttons on Twitter!

Now, let’s chat Twitter Chats! 
Twitter chats are an excellent way to collaborate with others. 
There is a Twitter host that asks a five questions throughout the course of an hour. 
Rule: ALWAYS place whatever the chats hashtag is INTO the tweet! If you don’t, the other chatters won’t be able to see it! 
I use TWEETDECK to help manage Twitter Chats. 
Twitter Chats can be so fast, this helps keep it organized.
To Add a Twitter Chat, click the plus sign to add a column…
Here you can add any columns you would like, but for the sake of Twitter chats click the SEARCH button. 
Type in the chat you would like to participate in…
Now click ADD COLUMN….
Want a way to keep track of all those Twitter Chats?

    I have Twitter for a while, but not have been able to figure out the chats – until now! Thanks so much for your help!

    I owe you a HUGE thank you! I already commented earlier today on the Facebook post, but since then I have begun using TweetDeck, AND I participated in my first chat tonight! I have had a Twitter account for a while now, but I didn't know how to do all of this. Thanks so much for sharing! 🙂
