Students Find Ways to Thwart Facebook Bans

this article presented ideas about social networking in school. this caught my attention by stating fine points on why instead of blocking social networking sites why not teach how to use them safely for academics and personal purposes. this article brings an interesting point because as stated, every ban that is put up against facebook would eventually become hacked by students who desire to get on that site.

this article in particular can provide great lessons to this class. since this class is a multimedia class, it points out that students should be taught about safe surfing on social websites such as facebook, myspace, etc. it also provides helpful hints to educators about incorporating both social technology with acedemic technology. this is one thing that satisfies the students learning style and the teachers educating style.

  1. I agree with what you are saying. Some people don't know that things will only get better if we teach the young ones better
