- The aim of this study was to determine the opinions of regarding the use of the Twitter Micro blog site with mobile applications for educational purposes. The study ran for a period of 5 weeks, and involved the teaching of a Distance Education course. Course materials such as course concepts, slides and videos were shared, using Twitter as a platform, by using a variety of mobile applications such as ThingLink, Wevideo and Dropbox. As a result of the research findings, I suggest that Twitter usage in combination with mobile applications for educational purposes, created a positive effect on student opinions. It can be said that, when using Twitter for educational purposes, follow ability and share ability nature of Twitter micro blog site in combination with a variety of mobile applications, causes an increase in student-teacher and global student-student communication. Therefore the number of student websites that have this 'sharing' function will increase and a platform can be provided that promotes the growth of information as it is shared.
