# What I'm Learning: #PaperTweets

Recently, I have found the need to lower the barrier to entry for people to use twitter, construct tweets, and learn how to create a social conversation with one another. I know that other folks have done this, so I went a searching and this is what I found:

Let me know if you have used a Paper Tweets protocol with students or teachers and I will add it to this post.
