I had never used Twitter before I took this class at Stockton. I never was interested in getting one due to the fact I felt that most people just got into arguments about what they believed. When I got twitter for this class, I wasn’t sure what to expect. After using Twitter for a little over a month I can say while I don’t like it, I do see its usefulness. For me being that I am only following education accounts I haven’t dealt with a ton of drama or anything of that nature. Instead, I have seen that Twitter can be a useful way to pass along information and communicate with others that you might not get the chance to otherwise. While the conversations on Twitter have been interesting, I don’t know if they have changed my way of thinking of education. Most of the things that I have seen I have come to similar opinions about topics or have heard others voice those opinions before. For that reason, I don’t know if I have learned anything significant that I hadn’t already learned in one of the many educational classes that I have taken at Stockton. But, that doesn’t mean that my time and conversations weren’t meaningful as I find it beneficial to talk about similar experiences that I have had with other people and discuss different methods of teaching.
