Should schools be

blocking social

networking ?

Are schools

understanding

everything that

they are blocking

form the

students?

Some of these

blocked sites

can be used for

engaged learn

for their pupils.

Why block

something that will

make your students

excited about the

lessons?

Teachers want

their students to

be engaged or

excited for their

lessons.

These kids are.

So just let

them get

excited about

learning.

Unblock the

social

networks!

Redefine what it

means to have

engaged learning.

But do using these

social networks like

Skype really work for

class lessons?

Just ask them.

Yet most schools don't

understand this.

Schools are

blocking

networks that

they don't even

know what they

can use them

for.

The web

enables global

collaboration so

why block it ?

Teachers can arrange

debates with U.K students

on the American Revolution.

Like these kids are doing.

using these blocked

sites gives skills

needed for the future

jobs!

A fun way of finding

out what is going on

in the outside world.

school leaders should be

questioning themselves

on what's really

happening.

information is

flowing out of the

classroom instead

of in.

Social networking

like Skype, are the

new age of learning

So why are

we blocking

our future!?
