IRC Revisited: #lrnchat on Twitter
Last week I participated in my first twitter chat. #lrnchat happens every Thursday night from 8:30-10pm EST and is very active, started by @marciamarcia. While it has a theme for the week, people talk about a variety of learning topics. Saying the conversation flowed is putting in mildly; I found my heart racing while I tried to keep up with the discussion, especially to responses to my posts. It reminded me of IRC, which I used to teach with online in the 90's.
I highly recommend it to all learning professionals!
