Social media can create a lot of controversy in any school. Many administrators and even parents are reluctant for teachers to incorporate these types of websites into daily classroom assignments and routines. Today posted an article that discusses social media within the classroom. The article presents ideas and examples that show the positive aspects of social media- there are many interesting and convincing points in this piece.
Additionally, the article introduces the reader to a teacher's blog. Her blog is full of great ideas that other teachers can tweak to fit their own classroom needs. I can't tell you how many ideas I have gotten from Pinterest and Instagram- why can't we encourage our kids to use these sites as an outlet or creative place to find and alter ideas to serve their own specific purposes?
