Twitter and I have had a love/hate relationship for a long time now. I've had a hard time understanding all of its functionality, but am slowly figuring it out. I like using it for educational purposes, a lot of educators share great links there, and are very active. One of the live Twitter Chats I was a part of was #stuvoice. #stuvoice contained a plethora of resources about empowering students and making sure that they were getting what they wanted/needed out of their education. One of the great links I found I retweeted on my page @jdteach36, it was from @edutopia. The article gave a list of 8 questions that are great to ask kids.
As the Student Council advisor at Carleton Washburne getting new ideas on how to increase student voice is extremely helpful, and here on Twitter there are live conversations happening and people sharing ideas daily. I'm very glad you keep pushing us to use Twitter because once you get over the hump of the terminology, the interface, and the thought of it just being another social media platform, you start to see all the amazing content inside.
