Social media is all around us.  We use it.  Families use it and so do our students, in school and on their own time.  But do our students understand their role and what it takes to be responsible social media users?
This is an important article, one that you should not miss.  Read how Mary Beth Hertz, a technology teacher in Philadelphia, uses this theme throughout her course working with kids so that they understand how to use social media responsibly, ethically, and safely.  Please share your reflections after reading the article.
