What is one possible limitation to using a social network in the classroom?

Many schools restrict access to social networking sites within the building setting, which may mean that even if you create an educational application, you may not be able to use it with your students.

Why would a teacher choose to use a collaborative social networking tool, such as the MIT New Literacies Project, to challenge gifted students?

Networking with students from around the world could provide opportunities to learn from others.

What are some ways you might integrate digital audio into your classroom teaching and learning activities?

During my schooling, several teachers used audio books to help the students understand the literature better. Students are able to hear the text in a clear and correctly pronounced way when using audio books. The audio could be played with individual headsets or speakers so the whole class could listen simutaniously. Students can also follow along with the text in front of them. This helps both visual and auditory learners.

Social networking sites are mainly for communicating with people to socialize instead of gaining knowledge.
