Build your own fake Twitter, Facebook or Snapchat post.

If Thomas Jefferson had a Twitter account today, what would he be tweeting about? simitator.com Is a great site for building your own fake Twitter or Facebook account for students to create a profile and dialogue of someone in history. Student's use this tool to present information in a way that is current and relevant to them. This is by no means a New lesson, people have been doing this for a decade now in schools, but it is a relatively new generator that helps build the Twitter, Facebook or Snapchat account. Snapchat generator is a separate site.


This is also a great teachable moment; to explain to students about how to use this site responsibly and the social etiquette around social media. It's always good to have a dialogue about digital citizenship and why it's important not to generate Fake profiles or content in actual Facebook or Twitter and to use this as a learning tool only.
