Texas OnCourse Office Hours Twitter Chat

Available on Twitter @TexasOnCourse for registered users of the Texas OnCourse Academy

Each month, Texas OnCourse Leader Fellows facilitate digital office hours that connect with colleagues, ask questions on key college and career advising topics, and share or hear about best practices.

Office Hours take the form of a Twitter Chat, facilitated by our Texas OnCourse Twitter page. These hour-long, online chat sessions allow you to drop in or out at your leisure, and you can even catch up on the Q&A later by checking out our Twitter Moments or scrolling down this page to review them by topic.

During Office Hours, we pose certain questions to the audience and anyone is welcome to jump in and respond by clicking “retweet” and typing a response, along with our hashtag, #AskTXOC. For example, if we were discussing Endorsements, our questions might look something like this:

To answer this question, a person would click “retweet,” type A2 to demonstrate that they are answering Q2, type their answer, and end their tweet with #AskTXOC. To summarize, their answer might look something like this:

You can also weigh in with any questions you have, either during Office Hours or any day leading up to them! Tweet your questions to @TexasOnCourse and include #AskTXOC -- we’ll see it and get the ball rolling!

Digital office hours are held once a month at noon CT. Office hours are structured around module topics, including the FAFSA, the Common Application, and Endorsements. To join office hours, simply visit our Twitter page during the hours of engagement, and hop into the conversation!
