Thing #19

The benefits of social networking for teachers are classroom discussions that can be discussed outside the classroom. Social networks increase our social interactions overall and gives us opportunity to reach out and make social connections.
I am a member of the social network Instagram. Instagram is really not a beneficial site for teachers. It is more of a personal site if you like to take photos. I don't think its wise for teachers to post pictures or videos of their students on this app because some parents may not approve.
Social networks in general are not appealing to me. I feel they are irrelevant unless you have a lot of time on your hands.  However if they were use properly and with professional etiquettes they can be very useful.
