I think that Twitter is a really good platform that is beneficial in education through hashtags and retweets. Twitter and course hashtags encourage open forum and debate, thus, creating a personal learning bubble between individuals who same similar knowledge and interest about a topic. Many social media platforms can help you find relevant material on any topic related to your education field. The nature of twitter streams allows it to be used as a passive or active learning tool. Learners can watch, skim, surf, tweet, connect and produce. This allows us learners to plan for a variety of roles by tasks, groups, or as a matter of learning personalization. Another platform that has a higher credibility than platforms like twitter would be google scholar. This allows learners to access peer reviewed articles, citations, and professionally written documents.
