Description:
Social networking is starting to be used for teacher professional development, for student and classroom networks, and as part of a growing trend toward Web 2.0 technologies that can create engaging learning environments. We’ll talk about these trends, their pros and cons for use, and try to gain a better understanding of what social networking is beyond MySpace and FaceBook. We’ll examine the pedagogical value of social networking tools, examine examples of social networking in education, and then evaluate the future potential of “educational networking.”
