EDU-651 and Facebook

What I learned this week in class is that like everything else, Facebook has its good and bad points (possibilities) so to speak.  Facebook also includes many educational tools, such as, Zoho Office, ISTOR, Courses 2.0, Slideshare and so on.  Most of these (as a newbie more or less to this type of educational tool), I have never heard of or used at this point in my training to become an online instructor.  I know that it will take some time and effort (not to mention energy and concentration) to learn about all the possibilities that Facebook and so many other applications have in the way of educational tools.

As an educational tool, Facebook (like so many other applications) can be used for language development, personal development and group collaboration especially in being used as an English and writing tool for new writers and others who live to write about anything and everything. 

Write on!   Connie
