Teaching as well as attending lectures in big lectures halls is an often-usualsituation in middle European universities. Bearing in mind that a huge mass of learners leadsto a decrease of lecture-student interactivity during lectures, the research work aims toenhance traditional face-to-face teaching by technology. The well-known and widely usedmicroblogging platform Twitter is used to display questions, notices and ideas on a wall just in time.


Therefore a so-called TwitterWall is developed by Graz University of Technologyconcerning special pedagogical needs. Afterwards a first use in a big lecture is pointed outand discussed. The publication concluded that the use of Twitter in combination with specificsoftware can help to enhance lecture interactivity in mass-education.
