Thing #18 I don't care for Twitter or any social network to be honest

     To be honest, I do not care for the whole Twitter scene. I see no need to use a social network site in a classroom. Call me old school, but anything we can do with a social network site, we can do with a simple, free email account. I have no need to broadcast everything to the world. As a teacher, I just want to interact with my students and their parents. With an email account, I can be more personal and professional. I just hate the idea of social networks entering our schools. Kids are already addicted to the social networks and checking them constantly. There is no need to help that addiction when they come to school. Schools are places for students to learn and interact with other students and teachers in person, not online. I am posting my twitter account https://twitter.com/#!/MrMontyEnlish (which I never used or ever will) because I have too. Have a nice day!
