Hobby Oriented Social media...turned side hustle?
I will admit that I am still doing the readings for this week. However, one of the readings I chose from the list was the article Teens and social media: A case study of high school students’ informal learning practices and trajectories. One thing I noticed about the case studies about these teenagers was that most adults follow similar patterns with social media. Case in point.. While I started with email, text and the other smaller tools, I began like most older adults of my generation with exploring MySpace. This didn't last long though. Eventually, I discovered Facebook and I too was concerned with connections and privacy and mostly because of the fact that I am a teacher. Like most I used the internet to search for lessons, ideas, and creative approaches to planning and activities. Eventually I stumbled upon YouTube and Pinterest. While I view YouTube and use videos in the classroom- as a consumer, I am not a producer nor do I usually contribute via comment...
