Twitter, the micro-blogging cum social networking tool Twitter made popular by the likes of Shashi Tharoor and Shah Rukh Khan is all set to enter Kerala classrooms.
Teachers, students and parents will use the social media technology to enhance the communication and learn new skills. The IT@School which is implementing the project has already started training the teachers the art of ’tweeting’.
Schools will be able to call a staff and PTA meetings, notify the progress of students and the date to pay the school fee in seconds using 140 characters.
Social media experts point out that Twitter can act like a virtual staffroom where teachers can access a stream of links, ideas, opinions, and resources in seconds.
