"Twitter est un outil de dialogue, et non de push."  Hmm.

Nik Peachey: How I use social media for my professional development

Nik Peachey: How I use social media for my professional development | TELT | Scoop.it

The issue of how we use social media for our own development as teachers and as digitally skilled individuals is of vital importance, not just because it can enable us to keep developing as teachers through the content, ideas, resources and above all people it gives us access to, but also because the way we use digital media for our own development should guide and influence the way we use it with our students and build their digital literacies and communication skills.

"The challenge is to move from external motivation where students are forced/encouraged to focus to instilling internal motivation where they actually want to focus and the distractions simply evaporate."

 

Shona Whyte's insight:

Interesting discussion (with references) about the problems of distraction when working online.  Like the author, I sometimes have trouble focusing when working online and agree that the nature of the task in hand, rather than the inherently distracting environment, is probably more important.  There are lessons for face-to-face teaching too concerning intrinsically interesting language learning tasks, rather than teaching to a test.
