It’s a fantastic job. One of the goals of my work with these students is to find novel ways of leveraging technology in the production of their senior theses.

This year, we’re making daily use of Twitter to plot the ups and downs of our research. I call it the Thesis Tweetstream.

You can look in on our progress by visiting the automated, public tweet-wall I’ve built (be sure to give it time to load):
