Thing # 5

Facebook and Twitter.
I LOVE Facebook and check and upload daily to my personal account. I don't think 1that it is a useful tool for elementary, especially 1st grade. I can see using it to discuss your classes in college or maybe high school....to update on assignments, ect. I don't think that it is actually an appropriate tool for teachers to use with students however...too personal. I really think that the only appropriate medium for these tools is the college classroom, aside from social networking. Twitter is an excellent tool for open forum discussions for college classrooms, rather than closed email lists.
