A Twitter discussion is different than a blackboard
discussion. A tweet is limited to 140
characters making statements very short. It might take multiple tweets to put
out one thought. You can also use (#)
hashtags for topics and an (@) at symbols in order to respond to someone. In a blackboard discussion you can write as
much as you want. If you want to respond
you can just reply on the other person’s thread. A class discussion is different than both of
the other two discussions. In class
discussions there is no limit on how much a person can say and it is easier for
everyone to communicate because everyone is a room together talking and not
behind a keyboard. The problem with in class discussions is that some people
are shy and do not like to talk in front of groups of people. When a discussion happens on either twitter
or blackboard that fear of public speaking is eliminated.
