Module 1

Teachers can harness social media into a blended classroom with youtube, twitter, instagram, by posting assignments/lessons, showcasing assignments/lessons, going beyond the textbook to extend learning. They should involve social media as much as they can because students are involved in social media. That is what they access on their own and it is of high interest to them. By involving social media students will be engaged. Technology is changing the classroom environment and learning opportunities by providing students with a deeper understanding of the curriculum and allowing them to work at their own pace, while being fully engaged. The tools students use in a blended classroom provides opportunities for learning beyond the classroom.
