Welcome to ISENET! Please let me know if you have any questions or I can help you in any way :)

You probably know all the videos anyway, but I've really enjoyed sharing the videos here at faculty meetings to get conversations started.

We don't block facebook at our school. I actually just did a history research paper with my students where they created Facebook fan pages for early 19th century reformers. Anyway, during class, when kids are using their computers, I circle around t…

Hey Beth, We don't block facebook and other social networking sites. For the most part, this works for us. It doesn't mean our students aren't off task periodically, but I wouldn't point to facebook/social networks as the reasons for off task behavi…
