In my future classroom I intend to use Instagram as a tool for students to share ideas about the content and concepts we learn in class. For example, maybe I will have students find examples of different geometric figures outside of the classroom and post them using the class hashtag. An assignment like this will hook student interest and get them thinking (and hopefully discussing) academic topics. Incorporating social media into the classroom teaches students to use it for quality purpose. And in the 21st century that is a critical skill many employers look for. I look forward to having my very own class so that I can incorporate more technology resources like Instagram into the classroom.
