Twitter Pinterest Dropbox eTwinning Using social media to good effect. Creating a PLN

Social networks’ checkpoint!

Twitter Twitter is an on-line messaging service that allows you to send texts, pictures, & links to websites. You can either Direct Message (DM) someone if you want to communicate privately or message including hashtags #, so that others can follow, and perhaps contribute.

Twitter You can use special apps available for ios or android to manage your Twitter account. I use Tweetbot which lets me create lists that I follow. #MFLTwitterati #spanishteachers #langchat

Twitter

You can follow other people as well as groups. You can ‘favourite’ other people’s tweets, sharing them with your followers. You can /forward tweets to yourself too.

Twitter You could create a departmental twitter account or one for individual languages!

The MFL Twitterati & DropBox DropBox allows you to access files on-line that you, or others you have shared folders with, have uploaded. The MFL Twitterati Dropboxes are by invitation only – me - and I’ll invite There is a German equivalent. Dropbox tutorial: ch?v=A_ZvB0GE5_A

Pinterest is an on-line webpage which allows you to ‘pin’ onto boards your favourite websites. You can have shared boards with other people. You can follow other people’s boards too.

Pinterest The more you use it the more it gets an idea of your interests and will feed you pins that you might want to see! Pinterest tutorials: /pintalk/pinterest- tutorials/
