A lesson in civics
Just thought of a cool concept, so I thought I would get it out on the interwebs.
I've been spending time thinking about the Hour of Code in the past couple of week, and it just keeps amazing me. It's an elegantly simple idea, and it is helping change the world.
It has inspired me to try a new type of social media experiment
On some date in the near future, I plan on attempting a new form of civic protest. Call it a twitter sit-in. I plan on tweeting 5 different members of the house of representatives. Each of them will get a personal question involving education in some way or another within their district.
And here is the best part. You can try it too. If you have any connection to education (family, friends, whoever) and have a twitter account you can try this. I am not saying it will be easy. It is going to take discipline, but I think we (the people of the internet) can do it, well maybe......
Challenge
You only do 5 tweets a day, each to a member of the house of representatives. To make it easy here is a website that has them all.
Each representative only gets a single tweet, no repeats.
Each tweet has to be related to education.
Have to run, but will clarify this later.
