Twitter differentiates from Blackboard discussions in many ways. Twitter is both convenient and easy to access. It has a limit of 140 characters and people from all around the world can see what one has posted. There are notifications when someone replies to a tweet since there's an app created for twitter for east access. Blackboard has none of those features. It is not easy to access since there is no app for it and there is no live update to know if someone replied on a comment. But one good thing about Blackboard discussions is that there is no limit on how much one can type for a post. Nonetheless, both Blackboard discussions and Twitter are both great places people can share thoughts and relate to one another.
What's different about Twitter and in-class discussions is quite simply. Twitter is used online where as in-class discussions is face to face interaction. But of course, one big difference between the two is that with Twitter, people from all around the world can make comments on the tweets when shared to the public. But one can say, in-class discussions are more intense when one has to criticize the person in the same room and at the spot without given much time to think.
