Blog About Twitter

A twitter discussion compared to a blackboard discussion is slightly different. When you have a discussion on twitter you retweet in reply to something people have written. When you comment or  retweet you can use hashtags and tag the person's twitter account so they know it's meant for them to see and respond to. A discussion on blackboard is different because all the discussions and comments are in one place. You can read everyones comments and just simply reply right under the person's post. When you have an in-class discussion it is very different from using a media platform. In person you directly respond to the person speaking. In class discussions are also more personal because you can see peoples emotions and facial expressions and it may be easier for them to clarify their comments because some things may be too long to type.
