Mile High twitter debate

This point/counterpoint session was facilitated by Gardner Campbell and Bruce Mass started with the Good, the Bad and the Ugly theme tune - just in case you didn't know it was gonna be a showdown

I'm going to struggle to do justice to the session in a short blog post - it had its own hashtag so if you want to see what people were saying about it before during and after take a look (you don't need to be a twitter user to see the stream)

if you don't have time to read the stream someone has kindly created you a wordle of it

some quick headlines of the things said outloud:

  • the age of aquarius is better than the era of duck and cover
  • are we pushing forward or preserving the status quo
  • as a CIO I'm the orange cone that stops you falling down the hole
  • you just sit there, I'll advance your slides for you
  • twitter can be the glue that holds a project team together
  • students need to be educated about how to build a thoughtful online presence - it is a core digital literacy skill
  • thinking about what it means to be an online citizen is no substitute for getting out and being one
