  • And an enormous 83 percent said that few or no teachers are using social
    networking technologies.


    Why?


    Well, the two most significant reasons cited were security concerns and lack
    of know-how on the part of teachers. Sixty-six percent of respondents said they
    had concerns about students posting personal data; 54 percent worried about
    inappropriate content; 53 percent worried about cyberbullying; 55 percent cited
    a need to monitor appropriate use; 51 percent cited concerns about teachers'
    abilities to use the tools effectively; and 48 percent of respondents said
    teachers themselves doubt the instructional value or appropriateness of online
    social networking.

  • What's more, district technology leaders also reported district network and
    data security concerns (35 percent), limited support systems (35 percent), and
    student "safety" concerns (76 percent) among the technology barriers to the
    adoption of social networking.
