Marquette University associate professor Gee Ekechai uses Twitter to discuss what she's teaching in class with students and connect them with experts in the field of advertising and public relations.
But others, particularly those who teach in communications fields, are finding that Twitter and other social media are key devices for students and faculty to include in their professional toolbox.

- When guest speakers come to class, some students are responsible for publishing the speaker's thoughts on Twitter during the presentation - called "live tweeting."
- Twitter also allows faculty members to post links to what they're reading. Students who "follow" a professor's tweets can get a look at the news stories that help inform their professor's lectures or connect with the experts their teachers are following.
- Menck says Twitter has increased the amount of communication she has with students. She gets direct messages from students about the industry or the course. She also "listens" to the conversations students have with each other on Twitter to gauge what they're interested in or what questions they have.
- While many students use social media, Twitter has not pervaded college campuses the way Facebook has.
- John Jordan, an associate professor in UWM's communication department, teaches students about social media but doesn't use Facebook or Twitter with students, opting for more formal channels of communication.
  
  "Not all of yourself can be public," he said. "There are notions of professionalism. Just the little back and forth that you have with your friends - you may not want your students to ask you about that."
