Using Social Media in the Classroom, 2nd edition, delivers more than just an update to the - already very good - 1st edition. Updates on technologies & tools and how they are used in the classroom are there as expected, but the new, greater depth of treatment about educational games and mobile learning, now given an extra chapter each, really adds an extra dimension. Whether you are new to using social media, familiar with some areas or an expert across the board, you will find much of interest within this comprehensive, yet easy to read, guide. There are also many 'gems' scattered throughout the book such as how to create - and remember- passwords and how to find out what exactly young people are doing online in specific countries. Megan Poore's updated text is needed more than ever, as social media become increasingly integrated in many aspects of education. I would recommend it to all practising teachers and trainee teachers, whatever their subject. , The chapter structure eases readers into using social media through starting with how to set up accounts, followed by ideas on how to use them with classes, with reflections that enable you to think about some of the wider issues about using social media. This book is accessible for those just starting but also challenges those who are competent users of social media to think about how they use it and why, encouraging teachers to use their knowledge about how children learn to plan effective and creative use of social media in the classroom. A good book to get you started but also to deepen your thinking about not only how to use social media but why you should use it with a 21st Century class., A book for every teacher's bookshelf This book has a similar layout to the first edition. The chapter commences with useful theoretical information followed by a task to reinforce learning. At the end of every chapter is a recommended reading or resource list. The chapter relating to cyber bullying is extremely useful for teachers and students alike, enabling them to know and understand the importance of identifying potential threats online. The activity assists in the identification of a bullying profile. The use of case studies also highlights the problems that can occur through lack of awareness. Teaching blended or online learning is on the increase in most education establishments, therefore the chapter on 'Enriching your practice' is an essential part of the teacher's resource pack. Creative teaching in the classroom is enhanced with online tools and games as many students now expect to use Google classrooms, hangouts, Skype, Blogs and Wikis as part of their normal learning, whether it is in the classroom or online. The book gives a comprehensive overview of the tools and apps that can be used to help turn a mediocre teaching session into an outstanding one. The companion website ensures that teaching staff have access to relevant links and handouts that can be used in the classroom. The use of the website will facilitate the development of outstanding and creative lessons., The chapter structure eases readers into using social media through starting with how to set up accounts, followed by ideas on how to use them with classes, with reflections that enable you to think about some of the wider issues about using social media. This book is accessible for those just starting but also challenges those who are competent users of social media to think about how they use it and why, encouraging teachers to use their knowledge about how children learn to plan effective and creative use of social media in the classroom. A good book to get you started but also to deepen your thinking about not only how to use social media but why you should use it with a 21stCentury class.
