You both did an amazing job in stating the case for using this excellent tool in schools. The purpose is clear: give students the guidance of how to safely and responsibly use social networking tools early on in order to excite and engage them to have global connections/convesations in their work. Rather than "hide our heads in the sand" and ignore all the issues of social networking sites (i.e., banning them), schools and parents --in partnership-- can help foster appropriate behavior, safety habits, and ethical norms in these environments. Kudos to both of you! Bob Sprankle Thanks to Wes and Cheryl for bringing this presentation on Think.com to us!
