Gilbert, You bring up a valid point- many schools prohibit interaction between faculty and students on various forms of social media with few exceptions, if any, such as LinkedIn. Budgetary constraints may also be a determining factor when it comes to purchasing new technologies or paying monthly fees to subscribe to web-based simulators and games that are not open source. The flip side to this is the vast amount of resources available to educators free of charge. Wishing you continued success in the classroom. Theresa Schmitt
