It is important for educators to understand and be able to
navigate social networking sites because that is the prominent form of
communication for students. Cyber bullying is a rising problems that schools
and teachers need the tools to combat. If there are issues in the social networking
sites, there will be issues brought into the classroom. Facebook has gotten
better with some aspects lately. For example, users now have the option to
attach documents in private messages. The most useful features about both
Twitter and Facebook is that they make communicationg with others easy.
Facebook makes it easy to share photos and statuses so that others can comment
and like them.
Schools and classrooms can use social networking sites to
show the parents and community what is going on at school. Schools often use
Facebook in order to let parents know about upcoming events. Engaging parents
and the community in learning is vital in the learning process.
