11/9 Social Networking

We should teach students how to use these sites appropriately so they can understand the safety and implications of their pages. I think every student with a MySpace or Facebook page should have to read the article about the MySpace in College Admissions.

Ann, I agree that the students should read the articles we had to. Wow what a wake up call. I can’t believe employers check blogs.

Ann, I agree with you about social networking. I, also love what you have done with your blog! I can see myself adapting some of this for my kindergarten blog.
