A very interesting information of how to use social media in education.

If you have problems to assign homework or to communicate with Students´ parents, don't worry here you have some options to use the social media as much as you can.

This site promotes training for teachers in the field of human rights. There is a Lesson Plan related to Identity, which I think is key to starting a process of social inclusion. Eventhough I don't teach children, this lesson could be adapted for adults.

This specific page lists some environmental human rights issues. This could aid in topic ideas for further research, individually or in groups. This group- The People's Movement for Human Rights Education- includes many other human rights issues in their webpage (children, education, housing, poverty, women, etc.) worth checking out. Also the "related links" section lists many additional education, social action and UN conference links as well.

The EDSITEment is a great resource for instructors teaching culture, history, social studies etc.. For my human rights topic the website gives several ideas about freedom of speech including various activities (lesson plans) classes of all ages can do during Freedom of Speech Week, October 17-23. Some of the content/language may be too high for EFL/ESL setting. Their collection of lesson plans are worth looking at though for ideas.
