Navigate 4.1.1 Trend Impact Quest

Education is an always changing profession, but a new factor has been thrown in...TECHNOLOGY! Students live in a world where everything is at their fingertips and their education should be no different.  I think social media is the largest player in our educational future.  Traditional interaction among students took place over the phone or on the swing set in years past, but now students communicate on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.  "Conversation" in the traditional sense of the word doesn't exist to the same magnitude it once did.  Motivation is a large part of learning and we know students are motivated to participate in social media, so let's use it to learn something and share ideas.  Finding ways to use these in education would allow technology to meet education in a natural way for today's students.
