Reflection #1- Classroom info page

I am on the cross country team at Northwest University, and I think it is interesting how my coach uses facebook to keep up with his team, parents, and other fans. He has a afcebook page that he dedicates to Northwest Cross country. Here is updates on races and events and posts pictures. He also encourages the team to post comments or pictures. I could see this idea working in a classroom to help parents keep up with what is going on in the classroom. This could also be a great place for students to go if they have any questions about their assignments. This would connect them not only to the teacher, but to other students who could help them as well.

  1. That is such a great idea! There is actually a program that I know of being used in the Northshore and Bellevue school districts called Edmodo that is basically the format of Facebook and is a school affiliated site. Students can log on and post comments/questions about things that are due and teachers post the assignments and handouts. It's a really cool and convenient tool for the schools to use because it keeps everyone connected.
