Should teachers use Facebook with students? Facebook and the teacher - Q - 2010-12-21. Ian Grunwald in Wpg // Anthony Marko in Hamilton

x Your thoughts?

• Do you need to be Facebook ‘friends’ with your students?
• Are you scared to meet your students at the mall?
• What if you live in a small town?
• Aren’t you essentially ‘friends’ with all your students and their families?
• how is this different?

Facebook alternatives - Edmodo and Schoology
