Student communication via twitter
• for slideshow do we include the title slide in the 5 slides?
• I'm confused about what day of the week the rss, delicious bookmarks and weekly assignments need to be done. Can you clarify please
• Blackboard has been down since yesterday morning so I haven't been able to complete this weeks task. Can I have an extension please?

Wider uses of Twitter by students
• doing metabolism questions over msn, testing each other is a fab way to learn! If only I knew any answers.
• is rather worried about the assessment tomorrow and is preparing herself for failure
