In a recent conversation, I was asked what I thought about twitter as a learning tool. Over the course of the past few years I’ve moved from saying “I don’t get it” – to feeling like it’s a good addition to my Learning Tool Set. But I also think that there’s a lot more help now around how to make effective use of Twitter as a learning tool. I thought it would be worthwhile to pull together these resources.

For people who are using "elearning manager", there is even a twitter-like (called "froggylearn") available on the plateforme. Really good to gather people around an elearning training.
For french speaking readers, you can find more details here: http://www.e-doceo.net/societe/elearning-manager-5-d-e-doceo-ou-la-formation-en-ligne-en-mode-2-0_41.php
Very good list of Twitter resources for e-Learning. Like you, I was at first very skeptical about using Twitter in the L&D world. But I've have since been a convert and have seen first hand the power it can have with large groups of people and creating robust learning experiences.
Hmm, it is somewhat really does matter to me, but never had an account for twitter. I may join and look for this features. And I may be enjoyed from it.
I'm sorry I saw this great list of articles because now I have to run through them all. It's an important topic, so thanks for compiling!
Sorry Connie. :)
Wow. Okay, taking a break from twitter to go through these...
I wonder if students under the age of 13 can use twitter? Where cab I find information on this issue?
