Case: Social Media
Many of Mr. Smith's high school students have been adding her on Facebook, although she has not responded to any of the requests. She made a class announcement that she will not accept any friend requests until they graduate and are no longer at the school, is this appropriate?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If a teacher uses their real name the students are going to find them. If their page is public, they will see it. Social Media is a tool that can use in such a positive way. I know teachers who take picture with students at school events and post them (high school). The students are friended to the account as well. This teacher is a school favorite. One the other hand, this teacher has access to the students page if they notice anything different or off. Intervention or reporting a concern about a students to a councilor may help reestablish a student back onto the right path. Student flood social media... why not make a positive impact. |

Comments: Though this said page is public and for school, I do think there should be a separation between teachers and students. Even if this page does no harm, it is still too close for comfort. |

Comments: Although in a digital world students will be able to find their teachers public accounts, I feel there are boundaries that are crucial to be put into place. Students are minors and even if they consent to a picture, parental consent is needed in cases where the teacher is using these images to publicize his/her work. Additionally, I know few students who would feel comfortable with their teacher snooping through their pages to look for changes. |
