I also included a quick tutorial on <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/weblearning\/ukznav\">Twitter<\/a> and then shut up and left them to work out how they could use Microblogging to connect to other PGCE  students. It&#8217;s great watching students teach students technology. They do it far better than I could ever hope to. Happy to report that they are excellent peer teachers and all of them &#8220;got it&#8221;. Conversations between students have started to flow. Hope I don&#8217;t sound to patronizing, but well done. Many others have not got this far. If I&#8217;ve left anyone of the list, please contact me. Would be great if we could have a network of 80 + PGCE students on Twitter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a range of people in my Ed Tech PGCE class this year.
