Abstract

Purdue University has opened up a Twitter-powered channel class to test the homemade software called Hotseat, which allowed students to key in question from their cell phones or laptops via Twitter or Facebook. However, asking 250 students to post questions on Twitter during class can cause ego damage if students get disorderly online. Insights on the experiment are also given.
