Hi Social Media Working Group Members and Friends,
Thank you to Professor Alan Childs for passing this article along from Edutopia (Education Trends).
Twitter Support for Educators and Parents
The article is particularly timely in light of issues/discussion raised by Jacqueline Freeman in her presentation on her role in Athletics compliance and our efforts to give shape to social media policy at Lafayette (Weds. April 30, 2014).
The viewpoint of the group and the example we follow is inclusion and education in making policy. We also concur with this article that gives many valuable resources to educators: social media is a critical 21st century skill.
As always, please send along any article on the topic of social media or related to me to post!
Remember SOCIAL MATTERS!
Best,
Brooke
