Kaye Sweetser’s favorite tools

1. Microblogging — Twitter (and Twemes.com/edb)
2. Facebook — example: use the gift function to send gift to nonprofit volunteers, etc. Also creating groups, an alternative to ProfNet, pitching. (Most of us on Facebook let students add us but don’t invite them.) Also, you can create a class to post announcements and reminders (@scullyke12). Can also buy ads and target them very narrowly (@rdfrench)
3. YouTube — example: Bateman team created two videos with middle school kids to promote auto safety. Could do a contest with an entire class or campus.
