Oh Yes. That and many other things

time has come for change

yes it's blocked for students, but not for teachers. Just this year we've stopped filtering most everything for teachers.

Yes

yes we do. We do this for political reasons for our parents. While we tell parents there is no 100% block.

clubs promote events and our social agencies are going to reach out to parents thru this online tool...but yet we taboo it.

I just wonder how we could turn it into the greatest ever writing tool and teach discipline in its use! How are wikis / blogs so different?

yes, but one of the few things filtered, so I don't fuss over that one too much.

for students only at this time, always open minded to new ideas though.....

you bet. Wouldn't want kids collaborating!

Yep!

yes, FB is blocked. Our filter doesn't differentiate between students or teachers.

yes. All social sites are blocked.

We do. We have one filter and it k-12 and faculty!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes

skipz: has your 'filter committee' been meeting?

yep!

I am working on disclaimers and conditions of use for blogs, wikis, etc. The time is come for all to do this when allowing students to post.

yes
