Teachers warned about use of Twitter and Facebook

The Scottish Secondary Teachers Association believes teachers can reveal too much personal information on sites such as Facebook and Twitter.

The union also fears they could become overly familiar with pupils.

Just brings to mind the teacher that ran away with a 15 year old pupil. Of course there are various methods of communication that could have been employed but I am betting that there was definite commnication on Facebook. It can start innocently and if one is not vigilant, can spiral into something more sinister. I am not saying Facebook shouldn't be used, but caution should be employed. You never know who is watching!

I am fully agree with your post. Using social communities in class can make a teachers career risky. Without late, it should be stopped.
