Introduction
It’s important to acknowledge up front that, while the phrase “social networking” has a history that predates the Internet, for most people the term retains a specific connotation of a certain kind of website — MySpace, Facebook, and the like.
Social networking sites have worried many educators (and parents) because they often bring with them out comes that are not positive: narcissism, gossip, wasted time, “friending,” hurt feelings, ruined reputations, and sometimes unsavory, even dangerous, activities.
It seems likely that the phrase “social networking” carries so much baggage that it would actually impede its productive use in the context of education.
Aim
With educational networking , there’s a higher probability that:
1. Educators will be able to participate in the events that will actually make a difference for them, their students, and their institutions.
2. Continuous learning can be encouraged and accomplished.
3. Staff members or administrators who are prohibited by law or policy from leaving their facility (as is often the case for principals) can still participate in a robust set of professional development opportunities.
4. Changing regulations, requirements, standards, and best practices can be kept up with.
5. Educators will be able to meet the demands for customized approaches that
meet the specific needs and learning styles of all of their students.
