One of the things I teach my teacher students is how to have their students create fake Tweet streams. You can use it to have conversations between historical figures, add in pictures and generally make your students condense their comments to a very well thought out series of concise statements. Above is a video made by one of the teachers in my course last year, Matt Levi. The best part about this is that while you can set up an account, you do not need to and once you are done it gives you a unique url which your students could e-mail or put on a Google Drive document to share with their teacher.
This is a webpage written by high school teachers for those who teach US and comparative government and want to find online content as well as technology that you can use in the classroom.
