    If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! Different countries and different education departments within those countries have social media policies which generally limit the ways in which teachers can use twitter and Facebook with their students.
  •  
    This is a smart alternative to "friending" your students and keeping school and personal separate. It is very helpful that the author included screen shots in the article; makes it easier to follow the steps.

    Thanks for the article. It was exactly what I've been looking for about how to keep my personal life and my students' separate but still be able to use Facebook. The set up steps are very easy to follow.

    • MariaEmicle Lopez
       
      Adrianne, I found the site with a lot of information. I particularly enjoyed "Virtual Exchanges in the Foreign Language Classroom." It explains how to make the target language more accessible to students allowing for an understanding of perspectives and practices. Good outline of benefits of virtual exchanges.
  •  
    This is a practice-oriented publication that's a bit more casual in tone and practical in content than its scholarly counterparts, while still rigorous in the quality of information it offers. We will feature articles, interviews with notable folks in the field of language teaching and learning, reviews of software, materials, and books, and more!

15 ways to use Snapchat in classes and schools - Ditch That Textbook - 1 views

  • 7. Virtual study session — Add your top 10 most important things to remember for a quiz or test as snaps in your Snapchat story. Students can watch your story and it becomes an instant study session.

      Love it! Never thought about it...
    • ericat329
       
      I think this is a really cute way to engage students.
  • 8. Movies — Tell a story 10 seconds at a time. Add short video clips to a story with each video as a scene in the “movie”. If students follow you, this could be a great, fun way for students to engage in content. They could craft their own Snapchat movies incorporating what they learn in your class. Teachers can create fun content that students will want to watch. Schools and school districts can do the same to tell about a sporting event or other community event.

      This sounds like it could be done in a similar way as our twitter story....would a class snapchat story work? it'd likely be chaotic, but perhaps wonderful too? Kids could discuss where the story "went wrong"
  • 11. Be a reporter — Schools and districts can bring news the entire school community through Snapchat. Report on a basketball game by showing quick video clips with score updates. Go backstage at the school play for exclusive access!
    • ericat329
       
      I think there's a lot of cool possibilities that could stem from this idea.
  • 15. Ask a question — Want to bring up an interesting question in class? Stoke the fire by asking it on Snapchat before class. It’ll give students time to think about it beforehand. If students follow you back, they can reply with a snap of their own!
    • ericat329
       
      another interesting possiblity.
