Reflection
Twitter was an interesting genre to use. I did not expect to be using social media in a class for school, but it turned out to not be too bad. It really made me think. It’s easy to write a summary of something, or even to write about how something made me feel. It’s not so easy to squeeze summaries and responses into 140 characters. My mindset went from “Is this too short?” to “How in the world can I make this fit into one tweet?” Overall, I liked using Twitter as a genre. It forced me to think.
