Educator Use of Social Networking Lags Behind Interest - Scott Aronowitz, THE Journal
The final results of an extensive nationwide survey on educator use of social networking were published last week, and it appears that more than six educators in ten are at least interested enough in the growing medium to register on one or more sites. What this will mean in the long run for the impact of social networking on education, however, is far less clear.
