Web Presence

I have given a great deal of thought to how to do this assignment and this is just a quick post before completing it. Last summer a couple of colleagues and I spent a great deal of time (and time with district lawyers) crafting a social media policy and updating our district's acceptable use policy for staff and students. It was an important step for us as we had adopted social networking software as our service for teacher classroom websites so had to make sure policy and guidelines were updated and in place. Rather than establishing another site and in keeping with our advice to staff :-) I will use this account unless it becomes too limiting for class work.

  1. Developing a social media policy is a big deal. You're way ahead of most districts! It's great that you're taking into consideration the challenge of having too many "places." Not many teachers using these tools consider what happens when students are using them for multiple classes. (This is where I confess I used the same papers for multiple college courses...)
