In Lamar CISD we encourage educators to “talk” where educational stakeholders are listening. This often involves the use of social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter.  Before beginning to use social media to surround your students in a learning network it’s important to consider district policy, as it relates to electronic communication with students and parents.   Naturally, our School Board has a Written Policy for Employee Standards of Conduct (June 2011), but to help clarify LCISD’s Electronic Media Policy even further, the iCafe team has put together a video to help educators make good choices.  Posted below are The Top 8 Guidelines For Acceptable Use of Electronic Media by Educators.  If you’re interested in viewing the FULL VERSION of this video, CLICK HERE.
