We are going to practice using Twitter as professionals. Check out this page for your section’s Twitter schedule, your time to tweet and our guidelines for Twitter.

You’ll tweet three times this semester. As a mass media professional, you will be using Twitter to promote your organization, client or product, and/or to transmit the latest news. So, this gives you practice in giving up-to-date information about an event – our class.

You can tweet about what is going on in class, what you learn that is new or anything other MC2010 students might want to know.

We won’t tweet profanity or vulgarity, words that hurt someone’s reputation, factually incorrect information, negative feelings about the class, or random info that doesn’t have anything to do with MC2010, mass media or current events: “I really wish I had a Kit-Kat bar. #manship2010.”  OR “My butt hurts … sitting 2hrs in #manship2010.”
