Are you using Social Media to enhance you student learning? This post by Christopher Pappas of elearningindustry.com talks about how social media can be used as a learning platform.

Facebook is listed in the post, it is not on my list as a place to use for student teacher connections. I defer to the literature that Teens are Leaving Facebook and that it is Becoming a Social Burden. I do like Twitter and Google +.

Let me know how you are using Social Media in your classes and if it is improving student learning or is it just distracting.

As always, please post your comments below and join in the conversation.
