I've been absolutely inspired by Winchester House School's use of Twitter to make the Gunpowder plot come alive over a number of days. See http://wp.me/pLYcW-8o and http://bit.ly/9c2ujJ
This is a prime example of teachers embracing the technology to make it work for them and their learners and I'm so grateful that examples like that exist because it makes my work so much easier! Hats off to @chrisleach78 who is the brainchild of this inventive use of Twitter for History. It's worth looking at his blog for other interesting ideas. I only came across it because I follow @deputymitchell, another inspirational teacher. We have much to learn in FE when it comes to this level of creativity!
Can't wait for my next opportunity to share the use of Twitter with FE teachers and to see the light bulbs come on above their heads ;-)
