1. Connecting with 21 st century learners created by Mancie Beck

2. Social networking is the grouping of individuals with common interests. Students, digital natives, or 21 st century learners can do this using the internet. Social networking not only allows students to talk to their friends, it also encourages communication with a wide range of individuals (classmates, teachers, professionals, etc.). Think GLOBAL! Human beings are social creatures by nature. We learn from watching, listening, reading, and doing. Social networking can expand on the classroom experience and push learning beyond the borders of the schoolyard. created by Mancie Beck

5. Our students, the 21 st century learners, regularly communicate online through social networking sites or media. Why not take advantage of technology and use those paths to enrich learning in the classroom? Encourage communication and promote lifelong learning! Create an environment that welcomes technology and challenges students to think beyond. created by Mancie Beck
