Email communication

Can use Infinite Campus Messenger

Collect email addresses at registration day or from info sheets

Send emails with news – I used this for scholarship and senior events this year and kept it as a weekly Friday email

Facebook Pages

Easy to create Reach parents easily Students start with Facebook

Twitter

Advantages – most teens are on it! Hard to keep track of (for me) Students let it all hang out here - caution Very public for the most part – followers

can retweet anything and/or comment Must have followers who will retweet Start with a core group of students who

have a large following Good for quick communication

Twitter …

Can keep you in contact with Universities

Media outlets and organizations use a lot

Hashtags like #JCPS or #JCCAConf may be listed as “trending” and promote your information if you are part of a group

Instagram

Photo-centered VERY popular with teens Similar to twitter but with photos Lots of comments available Easier to manage from phone than PC

I’m still working on this… students are teaching me!

Things to note:

All three can connect Facebook – Twitter – Instagram (you can also connect pinterest to all 3) If you are posting personal information

and all three are connected, you may accidentally share more than intended

Keep an eye on privacy settings

Three newer things commonly used by students

Snapchat Take photo and send – you can control

how long and to whom Can add captions Like texting but with quick photos Photos can be screen-shot using a

smart phone

Ask.fm

Used with twitter and instagram to ask and answer random questions

Students/people send a link and challenge followers to ask a question that may be posted to the social media site

Similar to old inbox-me game from Facebook (give yourself a number and ask a question – I will respond with number and answer for everyone to see)

In conclusion

Technology is constantly changing If you don’t know what is happening –

ask the students! They love helping you learn – being the

teacher Collect and disseminate as much

information as you can – the set up time is worth the benefit of communication
