HPU Professor Named in Top 100 Edu Tweeters
Twitter is an increasingly popular tool for personal, business, and educational conversations enabling people to keep in touch through exchanges of quick, frequent text-based communications. Not surprinsgly, many techn-savvy educators have added their voices.
Higher Education industry blog Online Degree World listed their 100 best educational sources available on Twitter, including Dr. Bill Sodeman of Hawai`i Pacific University. Dr. Sodeman is an associate professor of information systems at HPU, teaching courses in MSIS, MBA, and Executive MBA programs.
Billso (Dr. Sodeman's nom de Tweet) describes himself aptly in abbreviated Twitterspeak as a professor, consultant, writer, runner, and social media maven. His Twitter feed twitter.com/billso has over 2,000 updates to a growing list of more than 700 students, fellow faculty, and other assorted general groupie followers, and reflective of the man, his Tweets range from the academic, "checking my online courses to see what e-mail and questions have arisen today", to the comedic, "Woke up an hour ago. First load of laundry is almost done! Still waiting for the sun to rise."
