Twitter feed getting a little congested? Muting tweets may be the solution to resolve this! | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From socialmediaforlearning.com - January 26, 2022 3:58 PM
There may be times when you see content coming up in your feed that you are just not interested in and given the choice you’d prefer not to see! It could be that your timeline is suddenly full of tweets because there is a football cup final going on, it’s Eurovision time or because a new Wordle game gets popular and people like to share their daily results. We all have different interests and that’s fine, but it doesn’t mean you have to see these tweets! If this is happening to you then muting could be the answer!

The new way to curate social media posts and create stories using @wakelet | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From socialmediaforlearning.com - June 6, 2018 4:27 PM
For many social media curators the impending end of free and open Storify, used extensively to create stories in the form of collections of tweets and other social media clips, was a huge blow.

As the old saying goes “Every day’s a learning day’.  Social Media including Twitter seems to be always changing things.

Allowing students to work collaboratively Even college students sometimes have a hard time …
