Teacher’s Corner

Here is some documentation to help teachers and others get started with their own TwHistory reenactment.

  2. Explanation of how to set up a reenactment (PDF | Word)
  3. Example TwHistory teaching unit shared by a teacher who did the Cuban Missile Crisis (PDF | Word)

You may also be interested in our 2010 TTIX (Teaching with Technology Idea Exchange) conference presentation materials. Video from the presentation (part 1) and the hands-on demo (part 2) is now online. The Prezi presentation slides and the Titanic demo materials are also available. We are planning a similar hands-on TwHistory workshop for Wednesday, October 27th at the 2010 AECT International Convention in Anaheim, CA. Participants will create tweets in a reenactment of the Cuban Missile Crisis. We hope you can join us!

Please contact us if there is anything else we can do to help. We are working on a system to make this all much easier, so we welcome your questions and feedback. Happy tweeting!
