What I thought mattered from this blog was that teachers are not using tools and sites like face book and myspace to help their students. Even to the world this is very useful you hear about this one girl or guy making plans to meet with someone from another country and instead of thinking of it as danger we could use it to communicate with people from other countries and get their opinions and make it as an educational resource.It was just a list of recommendations about ways to use social networks as an advantage and I think it is a very good ideas, here is what she recommended.....
Teens are not as savvy as they and we might think. They are not able to fully
assess risk, and even when they do assess risk they don’t necessarily behave
accordingly. Therefore schools should do more than scaremongering or reading the
riot act. They should:
Provide teenagers with practical strategies to help them avoid giving away private information.
Encourage the use of social networking sites in school in order to train students in their proper use.
Ensure that students fully understand that it is not easy to delete all traces of oneself from a community, because of comments left on other people’s blogs or profiles.
Encourage teachers to join online communities for the purpose of CPD. The school could even have its own Ning community, or similar, for the exchanging of ideas and resources, and for virtual staff meetings.
Taking part in an online community would help teachers to understand their
students’ experience.
Teenagers use social networking sites and similar Social networking sites in order to do school-related work. Therefore it may be a good idea to encourage popular social networking sites to provide easily accessible resources that students could make use of.
Encourage social networking sites to make deletion of personal data a one-click operation, or as near to that as possible"

You needed to look at your audience and speak a little clearer. You stumbled over your words a little bit other than that good job!
Lauren, great job next time speak a little more loudly and clearly.
Lauren, I thought you did a good job on your presentation. You had awesome eye contact. You spoke a little quietly though so it was a little bit hard to hear you.good job though!
Lauren, I think that this might work but people might take it too far and and be wierd about it if you know what I mean. Good job speaking clearly and you seemed like you knew what you were talking about becuase you didnt look down at al which is great, Good job
Lauren, awesome job on your PLN presentation. You spoke fairly loud, but do try and work on your volume. Speak a little more slowly, but other than that, you were great! Keep it up!

Lauren, you did a great job! You did a great job at not relying on your notes! You spoke clearly and knew your information very well.
Lauren, you did a great job! I agreed with the majority of your points and you didn't use your notecards! Although this is true, you said "Like" too much, but you countered that by great summaries of your plns!
Lauren, you did a great job on your presentation, you were very calm. Next time try speaking a little clearer. Good job!!
You did a lot better on making eye contact and only looked at your notes to kind of review what you were going to read next. Try to speak just a tad louder but besides that you did a great job!
p.s try not to say "like" so much.
Lauren, good job speaking to the audience. You explained your articles well but it was a little long. Overall though good job.

Lauren
I think you did a good job. You knew you pln's very well. Also you made great eye contact. So great job.
Lauren! Great job. I don't think teachers should get Myspace's. Even though its for education, I still don't think it's a great idea, because they're going to see something they don't like and they could take it out on them in the class room without knowing it. Great job on talking about your blogs.
Lauren,
Great job presenting! I think that it is a good idea to use those certain social networking cites for teachers and students to use this for school related purposes. I agree with you how children are raised to beleive in certain things.
Lauren I thought you did a good job picking really good topics that you, as well as us could really relate to them.
Lauren, I think you did a good job on your presentation but try speaking louder and slower. Also try not to use the word like a lot and try not to read off of your notes as much other then that good job!
