Friday Follow Interviews
What is the Friday Follow Twitter Interview?
This year, as part of the evolution of this new site and a desire to refocus on connections out there, I am starting something new. This is an idea I have had for quite a long time. I wish to take Friday Follow on Twitter that one step further. Each week I shall interview a member of my connected network and pose a series of questions.
How does it work?
Each guest simply answers the following six questions and emails their responses to me following a contact via this Contact Form or by sending a direct message to myself via Twitter to @john_larkin.
- Please share a little about yourself with the readers.
- Describe the role played by social media in education.
- Tell me about your relationship with social media. How do you feel about social media?
- What do you feel are you strengths?
- What advice do you like to share with people?
- Are there any questions you would like to ask?
Each guest also adds a photograph or two and these will also be published. The complete post will be shared via Twitter during Friday and the following Saturday given time zone differences between the antipodes and the American continents. Please feel free to suggest an alternative name for this venture. You can suggest more challenging and thought provoking questions too if you wish.
How can I be a part of Friday Follow Twitter Interview?
If you wish to be a part of this please contact me via this Contact Form or send me a direct message via Twitter to @john_larkin.
