Thing 14

What did you join? I joined Ning. Why? I joined this one because it had an educational tie and because I didn't have any experience with it.

Has your opinion about social networking changed since working on this Thing? I see some value as I can easily add video, photos, apps, and comments. I don't like the ads and don't know if I could keep up with all the elements.

What do you see as the educational possibilities (if any) for social networking? I think for the grade levels with whom I work I prefer blogs and wikis. I will need to explore the tool more before I can
comment on its value in the classroom.

I think an awareness of these social networking tools is essential for us - esp. that social networking is NOT just Facebook!
