A team within the School of Modern Languages at the University of Southampton (M3 Project) explored the potential of integrating Twitter with an existing Moodle course, investigating to see whether the short messages (Tweets) that it allows could encourage in-course participation from learners.
Moodle blocks were developed, and the code is available here under GNU license.
Twitter Read - allows users to select and receive the most recent posts from either their friends feed, the public feed, or their own feed.
