Ray Jones introduces assessing the use of Twitter as part of the nursing undergraduate curriculum at Plymouth University. Students receive lectures on digital professionalism and are asked to set up Twitter accounts to follow nursing organizations. Initially students responded negatively, but assessing Twitter use resulted in over 1500 students creating accounts. While some students found Twitter informative and supportive, others felt time could be spent on more relevant topics. Feedback is generally positive, with the goal of encouraging safe social media use and online learning networks for nurses.
