- Abstract
Historically, literature on using social media in the classroom has focused on ethical uses in practice or on classroom policies for students using different platforms. However, there is an emerging body of literature providing guidance on using social media as a teaching tool. This article, co- written by two faculty members and two BSW students, provides an example of how Twitter can be used in an entry- level social policy course to engage students, teach important skills in social media management, and expand opportunities and networks. Perspectives on experiences from both faculty members and students are shared.
