  Case: Social Media
What are the limits when it comes to social media and education? I remember hearing a story of a principal who was fired because she posted a picture of her and her friends drinking wine. Is this over stepping the boundaries, or is the new norm for education?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Unfortunately as educators we have a tougher code of ethics to abide by. I still have a Facebook, instagram, and twitter...however I only post things that I wouldn't mind my parents, coworkers, and administrators seeing. I also required all posts I'm "tagged" in to be approved by me before it is allowed on my Facebook timeline.

Comments: I agree that educators should still have social medias but having it private and monitored can help reduce the conflict. If you don't want your mom to see it then you shouldn't post it.

Comments: I think this is a good way to handle the situation and as teachers while sometimes it may feel like it they are overstepping ethical bounds, it is important for educators to be positive role models for all students that may come across their social media pages
