Hello and Welcome,
Social Media, how important is it? Personally I use social media in my everyday life with my favourites being twitter, facebook and instagram in that order. I believe there are many more positives than negatives with social media but in that regard it is important to remain cautious. Everything that you do put out onto the internet is now out there and open to public and opinion be it positive or negative can and will be formed. So with that said I have become aware and careful for what I post whether it be a comment, status or picture. My professors have been good in letting us know what an employer works for and I plan to pay it forward and warn students of what they put out there without discouraging them to use the sites and apps.
In the classroom I don't feel I will be using more than a website in day to day lessons but obviously I'm open to change. I may set up links to media sites like facebook for educational games and an ever growing educational aide seems to be pintrest. I think as I get into student teaching and my career pintrest will be a very helpful tool for lesson planning. To close I like and will continue to always use social media. It has been the largest growing connection to the world and helps link all students, teachers and other educational contributors.
