In the era of such online spaces as Facebook, Instant Messenger, Live Journal, Blogger, Web Shots, and campus blogs, college students are using these resources and other online sites as a social medium. Inevitably, this medium presents students with ethical decisions about social propriety, self disclosure and acceptable behaviour. Because online social networking sites have proven problematic for college students and for college administrators, this book aims to offer professional guidance to Higher Education administrators and policy makers. Online Social Networking on Campus: Understanding what matters in student culture is a professional guide for Higher Education faculty and Student Affairs administrators, which rigorously examines college students’ use of online social networking sites and how they use these to develop relationships both on and off campus. Most importantly, Online Social Networking on Campus investigates how college students use online sites to explore and makes sense of their identities. Providing information taken from interviews, surveys and focus group data, the book presents an ethnographic view of social networking that will help Student Affairs administrators, Information Technology administrators, and faculty better understand and provide guidance to the "neomillennials" on their campuses.

The role that social media should play in education is being hotly debated in school districts across the country. The adoption of social networking for educational purposes lags behind the public's general usage because educators fear that students will be exposed to inappropriate online content, unwanted adult interactions, and bullying from peers. Advocates of social networking in the classroom, on the other hand, contend that when schools restrict students' access to these sites, they deprive them of the opportunity to use new communication tools to research, create, and learn. This Information Capsule reviews the benefits and risks associated with education-based social networking, summarizes the research conducted to determine the impact of social media on student learning, and provides recommendations for school districts to follow when they are establishing social networking policies. Examples of the ways in which social networking activities are currently being used in schools are also provided. Finally, this report includes a summary of Miami-Dade County Public Schools' Network and Internet Responsible Use Policies, along with information on the District's proposed Bring Your Own Device initiative, Internet Content Filter, and Bullying and Harassment Policy. Although most school districts around the country still prohibit social networking in the classroom, some educators and policymakers are reconsidering the ban on social media. Social networking sites may expose students to potential risks, most notably cyberbullying, but early studies suggest that their use in the classroom can promote academic learning and increase student engagement. Before allowing social networking in the classroom, it is imperative that school districts formulate strong policies that address harmful online interactions and provide educators and students with guidance and oversight in the use of social media. Many non-commercial education-based social networking sites are emerging in response to mounting concerns over student safety and the security risks associated with commercial social networking sites. These non-commercial sites provide a compromise solution for school districts attempting to strike a balance between unrestricted access to social media and its total exclusion from classrooms.

Facebook, Twitter, Google...today's tech-savvy students are always plugged in. However, all too often their teachers and administrators aren't experienced in the use of these familiar digital tools. If schools are to prepare students for the future, administrators and educators must harness the power of digital technologies and social media. With contributions from authorities on the topic of educational technology, What School Leaders Need to Know About Digital Technologies and Social Media is a compendium of the most useful tools for any education setting. Throughout the book, experts including Will Richardson, Vicki Davis, Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach, Richard Byrne, Joyce Valenza, and many others explain how administrators and teachers can best integrate technology into schools, helping to make sense of the often-confusing world of social media and digital tools.

As the book clearly illustrates, when these tools are combined with thoughtful and deliberate pedagogical practice, it can create a transformative experience for students, educators, and administrators alike.

This book examines teachers' use of the major instructional technologies over the last century - from the days of silent film, radio, and slide shows through to the modern interactive whiteboard and the Web. The book explores the reasons why so few teachers have used these technologies and why, even in today's digital world, the most commonly used classroom tools are the pen, paper, and chalkboard. The book provides decision-makers with an invaluable insight into the million dollar question: What is required to get teachers using the appropriate instructional technology as a normal part of everyday teaching? Without question, student learning is enhanced by adopting these new technologies. Until now, research on why the majority of teachers use only the most basic tools in the classroom has been scarce. The Use of Instructional Technology in Schools examines this phenomenon and, most importantly, identifies what is required to achieve teachers' universal acceptance of instructional technologies.
