Using Social Media to Connect with Parents & Students While Changing the Perception of Career & Technical Education
Social media is used by millions to stay in touch through Tweets, Likes and Friending. Educators are also using social media to engage students, parents and the public in a learning community that creates a dynamic environment for student learning. Social media allows students to participate in conversations, create content, make connections and collaborate together. Join this session to see examples of how you can connect with parents and students using social media and how you can also change the perception of career and technical education at the same time.
