Getting Tweets through Twitter's API?

Hi,

I've been reviewing back and forth through AJAX and APIs and I decided to set a challenge for myself in that instead of using Flickr, I'd try to display a couple of Twitter posts from a search term.

Although I'm sort of in general just sort of stumped. I assume that I should be using an access token(s) and the consumer token(s) but I'm not sure where I should be plugging them in. I've tried looking for some tutorials but they either use other languages I am not yet familiar with or are out of date with the 1.1 Twitter API.

Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: Probably should also mention this is coming from the AJAX Basics course, just for some context.
