Making the case for Facebook in education
This document discusses education and learning in three main points: 1) It quotes "If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn" to advocate teaching students in a way that matches their learning styles. 2) It notes that 1 in 4 children have an online presence before birth, showing how digital tools are increasingly part of children's lives. 3) It presents a diagram contrasting formal vs informal and intentional vs incidental learning, arguing that learning takes place through both planned and unplanned means.
