Twitter on Moodle
Twitter is the place where tons & tons of information and updates are released every second. We can rely on
twitter to stay informed on any topic. If you are an instructor using Moodle, you can also help learners to stay up-
to-date on recent developments in your field by integrating a Twitter widget into your Moodle course. This
widget searches for tweets# based on the keywords you provide, so it doesn’t require you as an instructor to be
an avid Twitter user.
