This was a great course. Professor Scritchfield has done an amazing job across the board. None of these assignments were "busy work." Instead, each one was useful and informative. He also gave quick and valuable feedback. This was my first course taken through FPU, and it has inspired me to keep taking more courses. Thank you Professor!

Fabulous topic, superb course, the kindest and most knowledgeable of instructors-Kevin Scritchfield! I would recommend Twitter for Professional Development to all educators. The resources available through Twitter are awesome, inspiring, connecting to so many amazing people who care about education. TEC978 guided me to understanding, to practicing with Twitter skills, and to applying them to my practice. This course was well-formatted, organized superiorly and offered so many learning opportunities about Twitter.
