Twiducate… Twitter for schools

A colleague just showed me something he is doing with his grade 6 class.  Twiducate is twitterish site that allows students and teachers to make short notes to their students.  The grade 6 teacher who showed it to me is using it with specific themes for the posts.  For example, he might ask his students to post on Twiducate what they thought of a History Channel special.  They all have the option to watch it at home and “tweet” to their classmates as they do it.  Twiducate is a private network where only the teacher and the students can see the posts.  Anyone have thoughts on it?
