Tools like Twitter, Facebook, and wikis are essential in today’s technological world as are other newer tools that hold promise. Whatever tools we want to use in our classroom we will have to be careful how and to what extent we want to use them. It might be best to consider using them in conjunction with well-established teaching principles such as the seven principles for good practice developed by Chickering and Gamson in 1987.
