Social Media in Schools

Social media has changed the entire world around us and has become an everyday thing.  That alone should be a good enough reason why schools should #teachnotblock using social media.  This year at NVAS has been completely different than other years.  Classrooms seem to be quieter and students are able to complete projects and work using social media.  With the long crazy winter we had, cancellations were quite often.  Using social media students were able to find out quickly if they had school or not.  Most of  my teachers are using edmodo to distribute work through the app on our iPads so we can now get our work done and get feed back immediatly. Overall I believe social media is good for schools.
