Here is a short comment list of my students re: social media
JoeyS
Wikisit is a good unit to be working on, i'd like to focus more on the other things that are accessable through wikis. the block on content for school really hampers creativity
froperks Wikis, etc.Allowing and encouraging the use of more social media would inspire more creativity and quite possibly productivity. Just simply banning such forms of media merely inhibits and blocks a students ability to create an sufficient final product.
banana91 soc. MediaI think they should let students use the web 2.0 more often because its becoming the new form of communication and people need to experience them and learn how to use them. It also increases your social learning experience and helps people to communicate in a new way and gives you options. If we had access to more Web 2.0 kids would have a better experience in school. I think they should have one for high schools in areas and have someone controlling them and monertering them. This would let us meet new people from other schools and it would be safe because each tech administrator of each school would moniter the activities that took place.
tesolp Wikis, bogs, etc.In my opinion, Wikis or blogging should not be allowed to be more accessible in school. Wikis should be allowed but as they are now (w/ class.. etc.). YouTube has lots of inappropriate things for school that we should not be allowed to open in school.
