Description

With the continued integration of technology into the classroom, the idea of using social media as a teaching tool has become a growing topic. How best to use this tool, including best practices for students and privacy concerns, go hand in hand with using these platforms. Exploring how confidentiality and social media use are connected can help teachers who choose to use these tools navigate them in an informed way. This course will explore social media use in the classroom, along with best practice tips, including ideas for maintaining confidentiality and security for children, families, and programs.
