Tweeting?
For some second-graders at a public school system in Kentucky, Twitter has become part of the curriculum. In Jefferson County, students are being encouraged to send tweets about their daily work - updating parents who elect to get the news updates from the school. Until just a couple of weeks ago, students were barred from using Twitter or any other social networking site while at school. But that's changed now.
Teacher Mike Ice says he wants his students to be able to communicate about their day in real time. He sees the brief online notes as another way to show parents and others what his kids are learning.
