Reading Live Tweets
Each week, select one article/chapter to be your “Live Tweet Reading of the Week.” As you read this article or chapter you should compose at least three tweets. These tweets might include your reactions, important quotes, or connections you make with other readings. Be pithy or even snarky, if that suits you. The hashtag for these tweets is #TheoryLT. During class, we’ll parse this Twitter stream (perhaps using Storify) as a way of identifying key elements from each text as we work to synthesize the ideas we encounter. You may think of other ways to use this Twitter stream when it is time for you to lead our discussion. If you have a personal Twitter account that you would rather not clutter with tweets for this exercise, feel free to create another specifically for our course. Make sure you communicate the name of the account (@<some_name>) to me so I can include your tweets among those aggregated for the course.
