Social Media in the Classroom

Late to the game in promoting this, but very powerful stuff from Michael Wesch's latest blog post:


Questions:

  • Have you ever been used by social media?
  • How should educators approach social media in their curricula?
  • Is there a level, a class, or a time when it would be best to teach students skills related to social media?
  • If we take the stance that social media literacy should be taught throughout the curriculum - regardless of subject or grade level - what can be done to ensure that it isn't lost through the cracks?
I certainly have my opinions about this topic, but would love to hear what you think first.
