I have subscribed to the feed and will remember to tag it "twitterprojects". Now the challenge is to spread the word about the delicious tag and @teachablemoment on twitter. It will only work and be reliable if people are using it. <b>If you are reading this Let's spread the word to our network. Blog about it, twitter it, talk about it f2f. </b> George,

This is exactly the type of thing that our instructional cadre is trying to bring forth within our district. I tried adding @teachablemoment from you last twitter. However, the link is incorrect. There was a type and it came out @teachablemoments. I ended up just doing a search for it. Anyway, you may want to re-tweet that. Is re-tweet a word? LOL! Thanks for getting this ball rolling.

I've started a delicious tag "twitterprojects" for open, ongoing projects teachers can have students participate in: http://del.icio.us/mrmayo/twitterprojects These are individual tweets that I've started to tag as a way of archiving collaboration projects. Twitter seems to be the perfect tool for teachers to connect around common interests, or topics. What are you studying, what are we studying? Let's connect our students. These easy in, easy out projects are also great ways to start relationships with other teachers that may lead to more in-depth collaboration projects down the road. :) Other aspects of Twitter are the regular requests from teachers to participate in online collaboration projects.

We have to be able to take advantage of those teachable moments, and I too will work harder to be available during the day to respond and to be in the moment. This is a great post.
