So it's sixty minutes of gamey goodness each week over twitter in 140 character bite size tweets using the #gamemooc hashtag.

To start, you'll need a twitter account. If you don't have one go to www.twitter.com and make one.

(if you have one, but it's been awhile - just try logging in ahead of time to make sure you still remember the password.)

If this is your first time doing at tweetchat, please go to www.tweetchat.com.
Login with your twitter account and when prompted put in the hashtag #gamemooc. Using this will allow you to see any tweets that contain this hashtag.

The #gamemooc tweetchat lasts for 60 minutes.

We start the tweetchat by asking you to introduce yourself - who you are and where you are geographically located. Since we are doing a "connected educator" badge, we then ask you to tell us what associations and organizations you are in. Then we do a few warmup questions (vocab quiz) so we are all using the same terms. After that we normally have 4- 5 discussion questions. We wrap-up at the end with last comments and ask everyone to re-introduce themselves.

And yes - lurking is allowed!
