The Gypsy Librarian: Article Note: On Facebook, Teachers, and Self-disclosure - 0 views

  • This was on my mind as I took the leap and created my Facebook profile. The blogs I keep allow me to have a minimal profile; I had the option to fill in a few more details on the personal profile I keep on Facebook. These are decisions that every educator using these technologies has to make.

      As a school administrator, would I have to police what teachers reveal about themselves? Do I police political views, religious views, group or fan affiliations?
  • "Participants also referenced the appropriateness of the content teachers provide. Typical responses included: 'Don't put anything about politics,' 'I wouldn't give out too much personal information or stuff you think your students might make fun of you about,' and 'Be cautious what people put on your wall. Know that your students can see it and be careful what perceptions you are giving'" (12).

    Inexpensive online training for a number of things... instructional technology being one of them!! Courses link to universities for credit. The course cost seems low (ex. $241 per credit hour). This is an awesome opportunity for overseas teachers!

    This article (in section 3) talks about the privacy controls that you can have in Facebook. The controls used to be easy to use, but they have recently become a little more difficult to use, and the interface has suddenly changed. But, this is something to look into.

Hey, teacher! Leave those kids alone!: Facebook is not LinkedIn | from This is going to... - 0 views

  •  
    This is a pretty good article talking about the blurring line between social and professional and how this person wants to keep those two things separate. As a teacher, I don't want to know what the students are doing this weekend. As a teacher, I don't want my students to know what I am doing this weekend. Is it healthy to have this blended environment? At the university level this question might not be so stressful, but at the K-12 level, it is a little tricker.

Catching Up with High-Tech Kids - 0 views

  • Teachers giving computerized tests were unaware that students were instant-messaging one another across the room.

      Doh! Instant messaging answers for computerized tests! Gotta think about that one. Ugh.
  • the school district chose to start an educational campaign. High school drama students created public service announcements that aired during morning announcements emphasizing the dangers of sharing private information online and the permanency of this information for college admissions counselors and future employers. Classes were offered for staff, parents, and the community, educating them on how kids are using technology and how they can talk to them. They saw immediate results; student postings online were suddenly more appropriate, teachers proactively worked to prevent misuse of technology, and parents and adults from the community attended classes and began discussing technology use with their children.

      Campaign idea. Could this be a CAS or community and service project?

PBS Teachers | learning.now . New NSBA Report on Social Networking | PBS - 0 views

  • Students aren’t just passive users of social media tools, either. One in five stated they post online comments on a daily basis, with 41 percent doing it at least weekly. Similarly, 22 percent of students admitted to uploading videos at some point, with nine percent claiming they do so on a weekly basis. And a whopping 30 percent of them publish their own blogs, with 17 percent of them updating them weekly.
