    Outside of Edmodo, I am struggling to think of ways social networking is used in classrooms here locally in Whispering Pines, NC. Stornaiuolo's comment in the video that students are watching but not commenting may be what I am seeing here locally but further comments made by her may also have revealed the solution. "How do you talk to people" may hold the key, at least in theory, as I talk to my daughter about why she doesn't comment more on Edmodo. My daughter stated that she was concerned about making a mistake since "it would be on the internet like forever. Mom, there is no such thing as a mistake on the internet, just regrets you have to live with forever that everyone knows about and no one forgets or will let you forget about." Interesting...thought provoking...

      Much like academics publishing in their respective journals or awards given by any establishment to one of their own, social acceptance is a powerful motivator for many and not just the youth looking to connect to the world or gain the respect of their peers.
