Intro To EdTech 543

Expectations for Spring 2019 I am not much of blogger, always thought about creating a blog but just never thought anyone would want tor read what I had to say.  I was not sure how I wanted to take the blog for this class but after this weekend and the events that transpired in Washington DC, I feel I know now why this course is so important.  Social Media in the classroom can be a powerful tool that allows to students and teachers to connect with others from all reaches of the world.  I am always reminded of the great quote from Spiderman "With great power comes great responsibility".  This quote is so true about Social Media.  From this class I hope to learn how other teachers not use it in their classroom but how are they teaching their students to use Social Media appropriately.  Not am I interested in how teachers are using Social Media, and teaching about it but how are teaching using it to help students determine what is propaganda, "fake news"...
