I'm chatting about #edtech in general, but today I want to focus on how @intructors can get the most from #onlinediscussion ...

...using #hashtag and @at.

@you will...

• be able to name "#" and "@" symbols

• see the characteristics that make them function

• practice using them in a discussion tool or social media

• facilitate #onlinecourses with flair

@who uses social media?

• facebook?

• twitter?

• instagram?
