Instructify

August 19, 2009

I love pithy advice. I also love good writing. Twitter user ThatWhichMatter encapsulates both. Named after the distinction between using “that” and “which” in a sentence, ThatWhichMatter dispenses tiny tips that will help drive home those grammar lessons you’ve been trying to impart to your students. Find out how to use hyphens, when to use “either” or “neither,” even lessons in netiquette regarding how not to sign an email.

Sidenote for non-Twitter users: A lot of folks get all indignant if you even mention Twitter to them. you can still get in on the grammar fun (yes, I think grammar can be fun. Get past it.). You don’t have to sign up for a Twitter account to read ThatWhichMatter. It works just like a regular web page — you can even subscribe to the ThatWhichMatter RSS feed, so you won’t even have to read the word “Twitter” as you absorb these great grammar tips.

Its not what you say, but “how” you say it: The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks

Its You’re Fault if There Not Learning Grammar
