Task 4: Twitter

Twitter:

Have use twitter in your lesson? For example, teaching students a specific task? If your answer no then this lesson designed based on this concept where students learn using hash tag feature and it supporting mobile learning technology. This a great tool to create a social community for students where they share world, trigger event and practice.

The following video is a great example of a teacher who implement the use of twitter in the classroom. 

After watching this video go to our moodle site and log in.

Start with 60 ways to use twitter in the classroom book and try to find the best ways the you could use twitter with. 

Then you will lean how to use your twitter account especially the hash tag.

This is a mind map of the topics in Moodle

Task 3:- Instagram

We will start this lesson by choice question about Instagram and Flickr and verbal discussion. Then, we will move to the most important part which is Instagram.

What is Flickr? and how is it different than Instagram? find all that from this video

You are going to involve this application in your E-portfolio and in the classroom. Before we go ahead, make sure that you have created your accounts in Instagram. If you don’t have then you are going to Moodle site first lesson about creating account in Instagram.

After that, you are going to follow step by step in Moodle lesson about how to use Instagram in your e-porfolio.

Task in Moodle:
1. You have to download the image from Moodle site.
2. Post your image in your account.
3. Tag your friends and H00149435 user to your image.
4. Use other feature of Instagram such as comment, delete comment, like, unlike and Hash-tag.

Task 2:- discussions on social media networking

How was your last task, I hope you enjoy it. Now, I am expecting from you to do a discussion on Moodle about Twitter vs Facebook vs Google+ after watching the embedded video. If you did it then you are ready to go for the second task which will be finding approaches on how to integrate this social networking in your E-portfolio or in the classroom and drop the file word into the Assignment drop box.

These two tasks would not take more than two hours and if you have any question you are free to ask.

Good luck
