One Principal Bans Facebook? Here's a Response.

Hitting the news recently was a principal who sent a letter home to parents speaking of the evils of Facebook and encouraging them to ban Facebook at home. In a state such as Iowa which is emphasizing 21st Century Skills, it is ironic that a principal or school would consider banning what could be one of the biggest skill of the 21st Century. Take a look at this Youtube video for a response to this principal's morning show appearance. It makes you wonder....what if we took time to teach digital citizenship or digital responsibility and how to use these tools for the better? Hmmmm........
