There is a lot of fear surrounding students using social media. We need to stop telling them what not to do, and start showing them what to do. This presentation covers why we should teach social media, shows examples how it is being used in classrooms, and offers advice. If you have questions, feel free to contact me.

before students use new fangled pencil device to write notes to each other #disruptivetechnology” - @leemarkdavies
“I hate that so many of my students know how to use a pencil better than me. #pencilchat - @bgrundy
“I heard that some students cheated on a pencil-based exam. Hence pencils should be banned in schools. #pencilchat” - @kenjprice
“I refuse to use pencils in my classroom until manufacturers figure out a way to limit what students can write with them. #pencilchat” - @erinneo
“We’ll never stop students’ cruel and immature online activity, but we can teach them how to be proactive and mindful in how they employ their devices, opening the door to more productive classroom technology application.”
If we teach them, they will learn…hopefully.

How will we use Twitter in AP Lit?Twitter enables you to broadcast short messages to your friends or "followers." At first, your messages will have to do with Crime and Punishment as you react to and question the novel. Your tweets will often become a part of our class discussions and will figure into your grade for the unit. For this class, we will define “followers” as your teacher, your classmates, or your parents.
