All forms of social networking are valid if students are appropriately using techniques
I teach OT and it is common for cohorts of students to have a private facebook group where ideas are shared.
Hi,
I am not much for posting in or reading discussions so I understand when my students say "what email?" when I reference previous instruction. Anyway, I just realized how easy it will be to set-up a Facebook account for my online math class where I can answer specific questions from which everyone can benefit.
We have a discussion portion of our curriculum with required postings but this would be more open and feel friendlier, IMHO.
I will create my page after completing this training.
