With the end of another school year, let's reflect on teachers and students.
Most of the relationships are just right, but inappropiate student-teacher relationships have been in the news and courtrooms for years. Are cyber relationships on Facebook a different story?
According to the Huffington Post, “some teachers say social media – in particular Facebook – can be a vital educational resource if used appropriately, especially because it's a primary means of communication for today's youngsters.”
However, that same article also reported a teacher in New York "friended several female students and wrote comments including 'this is sexy' under their photos." And "a substitute teacher sent a message to a student saying that her boyfriend did not ‘deserve a beautiful girl like you.’"
What do you think? What do your kids think? If you're a teacher, what are your feelings? Take our poll, and leave us your comments.
