@cmihalatos0510 2/2 A teacher needs to weigh the value of using the resource with the potential cons and make a decision in the best interest of student learning. #edt501#socialmediaeducation
@cmihalatos0510 1/2 This is an interesting take on the pros and cons of social media. At the end of the day some of these challenges or cons can be overcome with strategic planning. #edt501#socialmediaeducation
@EdBrynn I agree. Using social media in the classroom is a great way to connect student interests to the classroom curriculum. It's also a great way to potentially hear from voice that you may not typically hear from in classroom discussion. #edt501#socialmediaeducation
There is so much value that can be derived from students using blogs to reach a global audience. Here are some ways that blogs can be used in the classroom. #edt501#edtech#socialmediaeducation
"As you leverage technology to meet the needs of learners and help students get what they need, consider how to best leverage the time and role of the teacher." https://t.co/xYQ3C6CLsx @katiemartinedu
@ashleymaej28 I agree. I use each social media platform differently. I tend to use Facebook to connect with different groups. It helps me connect with people I would otherwise never speak to. Instagram helps me keep up with close friends and family. #edt501#socialmedia
@cmihalatos0510 2/2 We are becoming more interconnected with technology and that isn't necessarily a bad thing. My biggest concern isn't that people are using technology, but what technology companies are doing with that data. I think that should be the main focus. #edt501
@cmihalatos0510 1/2 I wouldn't say it is an addiction unless it is interfering with a person's ability to socialize, complete school work, or be successful in the workplace. Cellphone use is just the next evolution of society. #edt501
i’m a doctoral student and just submitted an assignment that looks like this so stop forcing those middle schoolers to do a five-paragraph essay for every damn assignment.
kthanksbye.
Social media: addiction. It's a sticky subject that not all experts agree on. There is no question that social media is changing or lives and the ways in which we engage with each other, but is it a problem? What your thoughts? #socialmedia#tech#edt501
The Social Dilemma on Netflix opened my eyes to all the ways that tech companies manipulate users in the name of engagement. It's worth the watch and to be more aware of how your data is being used.

This is a step in the right direction, but all bots should be labeled. Labeling bots that are less likely to spread false information doesn't really solve the #disinformation problem. #edt501
