I've always believed that this is a 24/7 vocation - in addition to social media, I'm aware of who is around me at a restaurant or running into a student in public. I've had teacher firends tell me that they are intitled to their personal life...while this may be the case, care must be taken in creating boundaries.
Seperating personal from professional is very important when your a teacher. Too much conversation and fun with students can give them the wrong idea depending on the conversations. Teaching them not being a friend like a peer.
This module reinforced everything that I have been taught over the years of my teaching. I am there in the classroom to be an educator not a friend. I am there to teach them my trade.
This module just reinforced the fact that you need to becareful about social media being out there and everyone having access to it.
Separation of presonal and personal life jumped out at me. This is extremely important in the digital age. The video really brought the point home. This is alot of information for a new teacher to process.
