Does your school allow you to use social networking as a teaching tool in your classroom? I'm curious to find out how common it is in other institutions.
Our school, at the advice of the corporation that owns it, has rules that bar instructors from sending or accepting friend requests from students on, say, FaceBook, citing it as a violation of the school's non-fraternization policy. LinkedIn, however, is allowed.
How does it work at your school?
