Twitter or Blackboard… I’m more
familiar with Blackboard for the moment and have used it for over 3 years, so I
guess I will have to say Blackboard but not definitively. While Blackboard is
my choice I do acknowledge blackboard has its flaws. It’s out-dated, clunky,
and has a high learning curve for new users, unlike Twitter which is relatively
simple. Also, blackboard is exclusively for academic purposes. Some people use
their Twitters for personal use as well, I’m not saying that’s wrong, but it
makes it difficult to screen out which of their post are for the class and
which ones are personal. So that’s my
take on the matter, though I’m equally comfortable with both for the purpose of
class participation, I would prefer Blackboard for class discussions.
