Analog Twitter Project Templates (Printables)

The term "Analog" means pre-digital. For example, the wristwatch that has dials and gears is an analog watch. Analog Twitter is non-digital Twitter. This kind of activity is usually used with students too young to participate in the "real thing," without adequate access to technology, or by students learning how to Tweet.
To do the Analog Twitter Project, print out the Mr. Stickman's example Tweet here (seen above) and use it to teach your students about the Tweet, then print out the templates for Tweets here and have students get busy composing some Tweets.  Create a space in your room (or even better, outside your classroom in the hallway) for the Analog Twitter Feed wall. You can use this sign to advertise the space. Hang your student's Tweets on the Analog Twitter Feed Wall. After many Tweets have been posted, give students a few Favorite and Retweet Stickers to use, then have them go into the hall and read through the Tweets. After they've read everyone's work, Tweeters should use their stickers to show their approval of their favorite Tweets. The most favorited and Retweeted Tweets should be moved to the Trending section.
This activity can be used to teach digital citizenship, writing, and even technology skills. Wouldn't students be ready for the real thing after a few Twitter sessions with this analog tool?  What else can it teach? I know there's more! Please comment on this post and let me know.

All of the templates for this activity can be found in this Google Drive folder.

I didn't invent the Analog Twitter Project, I just made some templates for you to use in your classroom. I hope you enjoy them and send me pictures if you decide to use the templates!

Some Twitter "Rules" To Teach: What should be added? Please comment below and let me know!
Update: Right after I posted, I heard from my Twitter friend, Dan McDowell, @danmcdowell, who teaches high school and has done some HILARIOUS and educational Twitter projects with his history students. You really have got to check them out!

GIGABYTE X99 SOC Champion overclocking guide for uncore and memory overclocking

Our technical marketing guru, Sofos, has put together an advanced overclocking guide based around uncore and memory overclocking using the GIGABYTE X99 SOC Champion motherboard and chipset so make sure you check this out if you are on X99 platform and need a few pointers. 1. Adjust the OC switch the position 2 , otherwise you won’t have the voltages you need for Uncore and memories. 2. Voltages for Uncore In the CPU Advanced Voltages, when you have the OC switch in the 2 position, you will see some extra voltages. VL1 to VL6. You only have to change VL4, VL5 and VL6 as below. The voltage you have to change to get higher uncore is mostly the VL6. Almost all the CPUs can do 1.45V, most of the CPUs can do 1.5V but some CPUs can do even higher Voltage. There are few CPUs that boot with lower than 1.45V though. If the CPU can do high VL6 then probably it can do and high Uncore but not all the times. It depends on the CPU. In the OS through GTL all you have to do is to raise the VRING to ...

Infographics for Math (Like Data Fried)

I had the pleasure of speaking with some of my favorite math teachers today, and we had a "wouldn't it be cool if" moment, so here goes . . . Wouldn't it be cool if our students used Google's Public Data Explorer or the Pew Research Center  to create some great infographics* with Visual.ly ? Yeah, I think it WOULD be cool! If your students are doing projects like this, please comment and let us know how it's going. We'd love to see their work! *Infographics are a way to visualize data; they help viewers see the meaning behind statistics. How Do You Stack Up to a Hoarder? infographic
