Thing 23 was a good thing to learn. I wasn't sure about using Facebook for the classroom, but I think I would be a little more apt to having a classroom participate in a social network that was much more limited. Not to discourage their growth and creativity, but just to maintain that "learning at school" type of interaction among students.
I found very useful information at the Classroom 2.0 Ning site for educators. I did find information that appears to have some value and joined the Special Education in the 21st Century group. It appeared to have the types of questions, discussions, and collaboration that I might be able to use to help with problem solving at school.
I guess I am on the journey to using a social network, having signed up although I do not have any specific goals in mind, I will just have to see where it leads, but I hope to get some new tricks to help deal with problems that might arise during the school year.
