1. THE MAJORITY OF STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO FACEBOOK ON A DAILY BASIS. 2. FACEBOOK IS ALREADY A PROMINENT SOCIAL NETWORKING SITE AND IS CONTINUOUSLY UPDATING AND IMPROVING TO STAY AHEAD IN THE GAME. 3. FACEBOOK IS A GREAT WAY TO STAY IN CONTACT WITH STUDENTS WHEN YOU ARE ON THE GO OR AT HOME.
THE FOLLOWING IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO INCORPORATE FACEBOOK IN A POSITIVE WAY IN THE CLASSROOM: SET UP A GROUP PAGE FOR YOUR CLASS/COURSE!!!!!!!
-Any homework updates can be posted by the teacher in the Folder section, and test/exam/assignment dates can be accessed through the Events page. -Students will be able to post comments and questions on the main page. -As a teacher, you will be able to post informational texts, videos, and websites on your Group page. -Students will also be able to have their own discussion going, whether it is about a difficult subject or about an upcoming test. BY SETTING UP A GROUP PAGE FOR YOUR COURSE, YOU ARE ALLOWING STUDENTS TO HAVE ACCESS TO CLASS INFORMATION AND YOU, AS A TEACHER, AT ANY TIME! THE ABOUT SECTION CAN BE FILLED WITH INFORMATION DESCRIBING THE COURSE, AS WELL AS YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION.
The amount of activity and the level of privacy are both controlled entirely by the creator of the page, or in other words, you, the teacher! Many parents have their own Facebook accounts, as well, so they will also have access to your course page.
