Thing 22- Nings

The Nings were very interesting and user friendly. Although they are very user friendly, they are almost too plain. I am used to using the more complex social networks like Facebook and Myspace. Student's in today's society are very technologically sound, so Nings might be a little too simple for them and they might get bored using this social network. I could use a Ning to network with other teachers and discuss issues/topics with other teachers. As a teaching tool, I could use a Ning to interact with my students/athletes about classwork or athletics, when outside the classroom.

  1. Creating a Ning for a particular group is a great way to secure a site for kids and keep everyone focused on the subject you want them to study.
