Educators using Facebook

Comment

We use a range of facebook pages for different classes and groups within our school; class groups for updating homework, discussion etc, a NZ camp group for uploading photos for parents while we are away, a performing arts group for uploading rehearsal info and videos. We also have a school page for making announcements.

Hello,

I am a university teacher and founder of Class.io we currently let teachers and students receive notifications and reminders of their homework in their facebook, linked to the site of their course.

 

I am interested in looking how teachers are using Facebook in their courses. For example one of my fellows has a course Facebook page where he posts course announcements and interesting news with very good results.

Thanks to all!

Hello Everyone,

I joined this group in hopes to meet a few educators that I can work with in the classrrom via skype. I currently teach business education at the high school level and would appreciate anyone responding who is interested in helping. Thank you.

What educational FB Apps have you tried and recommend?

I found an interesting white paper on social media and blogged here about it. I thought the group may find it interesting: Social Media In Schools

Stephen, The presentation went great. My wife (a fb junkie) and I presented, needed two people to present and troubleshoot, and the whole presentation was great. We went for an hour but only made it to item 3, the participants asked for another night to learn more, planning of that is in the works. I'd be happy to help you in any way I can!

Chris, I just joined this group and looked through your presentation notes.  Looked very interesting.  I am giving a presentation about social media in education in March and would like to use some of the resources you have listed.  How was your presentation received?  What was the overall acceptance for using facebook in the classroom?

Greetings all. I'm giving a presentation to students, community and parents tomorrow night. Could use your eyes on my outline: http://goo.gl/ie6T9 Any comments or advice?

I wanted to invite all teachers to check out the review website that I created.  It might be helpful to teachers that have large numbers of vocabulary terms.

http://www.bubbabrain.com   Play the demo game on the homepage to better understand the concept.  The top left card will say "find this" - click on the match and clear the board.  My students love using it to review vocabulary.  You can create your own games for free.
