@AlexFogle11 @georgejroy It is also an awesome classroom management tool!

@JennaLabossiere @georgejroy We are also one to one this year since my district began the school year virtual. It has been wonderful since they are more technology independent and have the ability to login on their own. Thanks for the app recommendation. I’d love to look into it. 😀

One of the benefits of using social media in the classroom is the ease of access for students. A challenge of this practice is the content that is available to students on social media and the distractions they may face while using the media outlet. @georgejroy #EDTE731SPRING2021

@ClarevO @georgejroy I agree that social media can be tricky. I know a lot of parents who are uncomfortable with the idea of their children being on social media, even if it is school related. I like the app class dojo because there is a 'class story' option that is similar a feed-but more private.

@georgejroy One challenge of using social media in the classroom is that not all students are allowed to participate in social media with their cellphones. One benefit is the increased engagement. #EDTE731SPRING2021

@georgejroy A benefit of using social media in the classroom is that you are connecting to students in a way they can relate to. It keeps up with the new generation's interests. A challenge is the misuse that can occur/the permanency of these mistakes. #EDTE731SPRING2021
