#NT2t A3 everyone has free speech remember libellous statements can put you in -ve position . Be prof some people will try to wind you up

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:37 AM EDT

@shyj Very true. Some gret Twitter chats for those topics such as #educolor (I lurk sometimes) chats for social justice. #nt2t

hturk139 - Moderator Oct 15 @ 9:38 AM EDT

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:38 AM EDT

@JessicaStacey25 Yes, I just have one account for Twitter which is pretty much all about teaching/education. #nt2t

@CHitch94 @shyj What day and time is the #educolor chat? #NT2t

Q5: How can Twitter help develop and implement solutions to problems we are seeing in education globally? #NT2t https://t.co/DSlipkkybn

brianrozinsky Oct 15 @ 9:39 AM EDT

@avaughnteacher @JessicaStacey25 Not unheard of. In some settings, Twitter falls prey to Internet filters. Worth chat w/yr principal? #nt2t

joannbrookswilm Oct 15 @ 9:39 AM EDT

A4. Controversial topics: Would you discuss the topic in person? What makes it different from discussing it on SM?#nt2t

gibsoni Oct 15 @ 9:39 AM EDT

#NT2t oh by the way forgot to introduce myself Ian sec teach from Scotland

JKatzaman Oct 15 @ 9:39 AM EDT

A5 Twitter is the perfect venue to reach out and compare notes with others around the world who have faced similar challenges. #nt2t

dinamoati Oct 15 @ 9:39 AM EDT

@brianrozinsky Avoiding a topic doesn't make it disappear but also depends on personal interest,do we have to engage in every topic? #nt2t

robynvictorious Oct 15 @ 9:39 AM EDT

@EdTech_Jeanie thank you! Up until 1 month ago I had only used FB... my new grad program is broadening my horizons #nt2t

lilostep Oct 15 @ 9:40 AM EDT

A5: By connecting w/others around the world, we gain global perspective on issues. We learn things we didn't know we needed to learn. #nt2t

A4: Context is valuable too. If a discussion about race is happening with #nt2t attached, that seems unusual. But #educolor is so important!

gibsoni Oct 15 @ 9:42 AM EDT

#NT2t A4 I don't avoid any topics , it's about developing myself , having opinions and voicing them as long as they are not offensive .

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:43 AM EDT

@JeremyDBond As a T, I find talking w/ other Ts about how to discuss these issues w/ Ss is really helpful. #nt2t

dinamoati Oct 15 @ 9:43 AM EDT

@joannbrookswilm perhaps the fear of being misunderstood because of lack of "nonverbal"?Is there a place for mistakes? #devilsadvocate #nt2t

gibsoni Oct 15 @ 9:43 AM EDT

#NT2t A4 how can we tell pupils in class if we are discussing equity and equality if we won't discuss topics that might cause issue

JeremyDBond Oct 15 @ 9:44 AM EDT

Teachers and schools may be the laboratories for how we ALL discuss these issues. Thank you for your leadership! #nt2t @CHitch94

EdTech_Jeanie Oct 15 @ 9:44 AM EDT

A5. Collaboration. Sharing. New perspectives. Fresh ideas. #nt2t

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:45 AM EDT

@JeremyDBond That's a great way of looking at it & one of the reasons I feel social studies education is so imp. #nt2t

dinamoati Oct 15 @ 9:45 AM EDT

A5. One of the 1st steps in solving problems is brainstorming. Seems like Twitter enables this, big time! #nt2t

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:47 AM EDT

@Stanton_Lit Teach online so tone & nonverbal cues are lost but tell Ss that we WILL disagree on things & that's o.k. Be respectfuli. #nt2t

Francine_Bee Oct 15 @ 9:47 AM EDT

A4 @CHitch94 @shyj I related this Q not just to students. I think respect is the key, rather than avoidance & realize we may not agree #nt2t

JKatzaman Oct 15 @ 9:47 AM EDT

A6 In a sense we already have debates on Twitter. They're called chats. We don't think of them as debates because we're civil. #nt2t

robynvictorious Oct 15 @ 9:47 AM EDT

@dinamoati thanx....what r your favorite sm paths? #nt2t

JeremyDBond Oct 15 @ 9:47 AM EDT

@hturk139 because newbies are here? Perhaps, although this could be a "safer" forum to step in slowly. #nt2t

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:48 AM EDT

A6) Get to see so many different viewpoints, not just two or three. #nt2t

JessicaStacey25 Oct 15 @ 9:48 AM EDT

@JKatzaman I like that!!! LOVE it actually! #nt2t

brianrozinsky Oct 15 @ 9:48 AM EDT

@JKatzaman Current attention-getting examples aside -- who said debates must, by definition, be cantankerous? #nt2t

CHitch94 Oct 15 @ 9:49 AM EDT

@JessicaStacey25 @JKatzaman That has been my experience w/ education Twitter chats. Very respectful discussions vast majority of time. #nt2t

Stanton_Lit Oct 15 @ 9:49 AM EDT

A6: It is a safe place because you can disengage at any time. And there is time to reflect and erase a tweet before sending. #Nt2t

NVandenAbeele Oct 15 @ 9:49 AM EDT

#NT2T A6 I think it is certainly necessary to use the term "value" in its plural form to answer this Q. Let's consider the feed in ten mins!

JKatzaman Oct 15 @ 9:50 AM EDT

@brianrozinsky That's my point -- debate-ably. #nt2t

dinamoati Oct 15 @ 9:50 AM EDT

@robynvictorious hmm, twitter, voxer, snapchat and Instagram are my top ones. Different platforms for different reasons and tribes ;) #nt2t
