Social Networking for Schools

Facebook is giving me opportunities for new business always. Recently I saw one advertisement for Social Networking for Schools. By following the link I found an interesting web 2.0 online application called – Twiducate. It is a free resource for educators. The goal is to create a medium for teachers and students to continue their learning outside the classroom. The service attempts to fill a need for a more educationally focused, safe venue for teachers, schools, and home learners in a social networking environment.

Teachers can create a network for them/school and their students and can do the following things using this Twiducate.


    Share inspiration, ideas, readings, thoughts
    Post discussions, deadlines, homework
    Embed pictures, links and video
    Keep parents informed
    Collaborate on work by providing feedback
    Connect with students outside the classroom in a secure manner!


I am exploring this website with one of my friend – she is a teacher, works in a private school. Let me post my observations soon.
