Students who enroll in college are often expected to engage in online discussion and collaboration, but rarely do high school educators prepare students for this type of discourse. "Extending the Classroom With Social Networking" will offer participants several options for teaching and encouraging student participation outside the traditional classroom environment. While the presentation will focus mostly on how to safely and effectively use Facebook with classes, other platforms such as Ning and Posterous will also be highlighted.
