Each month, I post a list of @wisepedagogy Twitter posts from the previous month. If you missed them the first time, you can find them here.
Unfortunately, this will be the last archive for @wisepedagogy. We have reached the end of our grant funding for this project, and most WISE Pedagogy initiatives are being discontinued after April 30. Anyone who wishes to read more tweets for eLearning and online pedagogy can follow my personal feed, @amckinn.
