This week’s class was really interesting and informative! We had a guest speaker, Jesse Miller, who shared a lot of useful information related to technology and social media. His presentation helped me re-consider my view on social media in the classroom and demonstrated the importance of being aware of social media risks.

Something that stood out to me during Jesse Miller’s presentation was the importance of being cognizant of social media trends. As an educator, it will be my responsibility to address social media concerns with my students. Social media is a huge aspect of students’ lives and is it important to know how to address social media issues, discuss expectations with students regarding social media in the classroom, and be literate with social media so it can potentially be used as a resource in the classroom.

After learning this information, I will keep it in mind when considering social media currently, and in the future as a teacher. Overall, I found this presentation really informative and I look forward to applying my new knowledge I gained to my classroom practices in the future!
