Thing 18

As educators, we need to be able to know how social networking works so that we can broaden our knowledge and find new things to use in the classroom. With twitter, https://twitter.com/#!/AndreaForsting, I like that you can look up many different things in a lot of different areas. I had never used Twitter before this class so it was interesting to see what all it offered. People always use it to follow friends and celebrities but it is also great for educators. I like Facebook but it is more my personal social network rather than how my Twitter is for school and the classroom. You also have to be very careful on what you post on your social networking. Make sure that all things you post or look up are appropriate. We are professionals and must conduct ourselves that way in everything we do.
