What is Twitter?Twitter is a real-time information network that connects you to the latest information about what you find interesting. Simply find the public streams you find most compelling and follow the conversations.
“Twitter has simply become one of the best places for teachers to collaborate, share solutions to common classroom problems, and discuss education policy. In fact, it might just be the best forum teachers have ever had.” – Liz Dwyer

Edmodo
• Social learning network similar to Facebook designed specifically for foreign language students and teachers: teachers post assignments and reminders of upcoming
quizzes and tests, students can also post their own topics. This site gives the possibility for communicative language practice (as opposed to practicing vocabulary
or verb conjugations in isolation). This is a way for students to do the majority of preparation at home and practice actively with us in class!. This allows students
to hand in homework via the Edmodo interface and eliminate paper altogether!
