Education Week is exploring social networking and education

Education Week has weekly chat sessions on topics of interest to educators. This week's chat, on social networking sites (Facebook, Myspace, etc.) and how they can be used to reach out to students and monitor behavior, caught my eye; I've been mulling around ideas for using social networking in evaluation.

The live chat will be broadcast tomorrow at noon central time (1:00 PM eastern). One of the panelists, Conn McCartan, is a Minnesota Principal who recently disciplined students related to online behavior.

If your organization has been thinking about the pros and cons of social networking, this might be a good resources.
