Chemistry teachers are always looking for new ideas to reach students. Social media is a new frontier to reach students AND collaborate with other chemistry teachers around the world 24/7. I hesitated to join Twitter because it seemed like "just one more thing to add to my plate". I did finally log on and created an account. I asked a student a few questions to help me get started and I have found it to be a valuable addition to my resource/idea toolbox. Check out this article for a mini-lesson that will help you get started. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/joann-fox/twitter-is-my-teacher-sup_b_4369... Follow ChemEd X on Facebook and Twitter.
