The document discusses how social media can be used in education. It argues that the best uses of technology in the classroom are those that extend learning outside of the classroom. Using social media like wikis, blogs, and Google Docs can encourage collaboration between students and help close the gap between students and teachers. However, simply trying to incorporate technology into the classroom does not work - the education needs to be redesigned first before integrating technology. When done right, social media can create new opportunities for discussion, critique, and building relationships between students and teachers.
