Using Social Media in the Classroom
USING SOCIAL MEDIA RESPONSIBLY AND TEACHING DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
Annette Breaux says… What works in your classroom…
• Post like your parents are watching…
• Post as if your coach, priest, pastor, Principal, boss are watching…
• Post/blog for publication in your favorite magazine, on your favorite website, etc.
OTHER AMAZING USES FOR SOCIAL MEDIA IN THE CLASSROOM
The old way…• Classroom newsletters• Debate
• Field trip• Assessing student
knowledge• “What did you learn in
school today?” Nothing
The new way…• Class blog• Use a # to debate with
another school• Virtual field trip• Students respond via
Twitter!• “How was your lesson on
Sacajawea?” GREAT! How did you know?
• podcasting...Intro podcast
• student podcasting...On student's desires...
ESPECIALLY HELPFUL…
• If you are a “singleton”• The only music teacher• The only art teacher• The only phys ed
teacher• The only Principal• The only
Superintendent
• If you are…• Seeking innovative
teaching ideas for your classroom
• Seeking classroom management strategies
• Looking to collaborate with others
FEEDBACK AND COLLABORATION
