This article tells you many things about how education can use technology to help students with social networking, finding information, playing games, and many more things. Students can use technology in many ways such as typing resumes, applications, creating webpages for themselves. But at the same time the internet can be used against students. Students using the internet for social networking, use it to communicate with friends and other things and they post pictures and things that shouldn't be posted, they also use technology to bully other students.
I believe if we have technology in the schools, then we need to set rules and overall we need to find ways to let students know that employers look on the internet to see whats on there about the people they have applying for their place of work. Therefore, students don't realize what they put on their facebook, myspace, twitter, and pinterest will always be accessible to anyone and everyone that has internet access. We as teachers need to educate students on how to use the internet safely.
