Social Media for
Educators
Stefanie Fox
Most Useful Tool
• Twitter
• So easy to find great articles
• Really feel connected to other users with similar interests
• Extremely simple to navigate site & share
• People’s comments are often helpful/insightful
• Perfect for collaboration
Successes
• Pinterest boards have kept me very organized!
• Found some really articles on Twitter!
• Was already able to incorporate some new things into my
classroom
Challenges
• Finding groups within Diigo
• Once finding a group, following users function did not work
• Animoto did not properly save changes I made to my project
• Took a while to figure out how to share my Google Plus page
Moodle & Online Learning
• Can be slightly confusing and difficult to navigate at first
• With time to explore Moodle site, online learning is wonderful!
• Great way to connect with classmates throughout duration of course
• Love the ability to share ideas and ask for help in the forums
• Perfect for working at own pace and during individual schedule
