As far as student devices I don't use them in class because my students don't have them and if they have some sort of device they don't bring them to school. My students aren't always trusted and some lack the level of responsibility to have a device and bring to school.
I did create Facebook pages for two of my classes. In my Communication class I am planning on teaching the students how to use Facebook as a communication tool and internet safety. I have not notified students and parents of my Facebook pages. I created them just before break.
I AGREE, I HAVE A SPLIT BETWEEN STUDENTS HAVING THE TOP OF THE LINE EQUIPMENT, BUT LACK SKILLS TO REALLY USE THE DEVICES. ONE THE OTHERHAND, I HAVE STUDENTS WHO HAVE GREAT SKILLS, BUT NO DEVICES FROM HOME, THEN AT SCHOOL, ONE DAY THEY WORK, THE NEXT THEY DON'T, ARG!!!
