  • This website really explains the power social media has and can be used with students.  The guy she interviews uses Canva to create stories about the school.
  • He warns to not use this for an elementary school and to not over use it. He focuses primarily on big events such as Graduation.
  • "Our students tune into this platform because it is content made exclusively for them. It is quick and they don’t have to engage with it. They also realize that if they miss it, it’s gone. This puts an urgency factor to it all! Stories are only live for 24 hours on Snapchat. We help promote our upcoming stories on other social media platforms, like an Instagram photo, a tweet or a Facebook posts that says to tune in on Snapchat tonight at 7:00 pm for our latest story."
  •  "Snapchat is actually much safer than other channels, in my opinion. No comments are allowed and the content is temporary (although you can save it for your district’s archiving and public record rules). The data that we’ve collected shows that students are seeing our posts. It is our opportunity as a school to meet our kids where they are at.

    I think the true worst case scenario for school is that no one would tune in to watch our stories. So far, that isn’t happening to us. Our average story is seen on average by 300-plus Snapchat users."

    • They will reject hashtags on the images. 
    • Community filters are more general artwork in nature. If you try submitting your school logo or anything branded, that will also be rejected. 
    • The community filters can be available on a long-term basis, but they are more challenging to get approved.

    When you take a photo, you are able to swipe and choose between a number of filters. Some are funny, some are based on the weather or time, and some are based on location.]]>     2017-04-25 17:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mraleigh/chelpfirtee3/wish/168185464     U: #2 mraleigh https://padlet.com/mraleigh/chelpfirtee3/wish/168186885 Why Snapchat? From their website...
    • We believe in sharing authentic moments with friends. It’s not all about fancy vacations, sushi dinners, or beautiful sunsets. Sometimes it’s an inside joke, a silly face, or greetings from a pet fish.
    • Sharing those moments should be fun. Communication is more entertaining when it’s with the people who know us best. And we know that no one is better at making us laugh than our friends.
    • There is value in the ephemeral. Great conversations are magical.That’s because they are shared, enjoyed, but not saved.
    Pro's to using it in a school:
    1. Sharing of the Good: All the students are on Snapchat, so why don’t we have school accounts where we are sharing what is going on in classrooms and extra-curricular events (athletic activities etc). This gets great engagement from our students and they are more likely to watch and engage on this platform than any other right now.
    2. Live Stories of School Events: Got a big event going on in your classroom or school? Snapchat has live stories of all kinds of events (Super Bowl, Concert Series, MakerFaire) and I see it eventually pulling from all different accounts in your geographic area (school or district) to compile an amazing story from multiple vantage points at a school event.
    3. Blasting Out Information That Students Will See: Email open rates are dreadful, especially among the ages of 13-22. They don’t check email and don’t open/read when it comes through. Remind has done a wonderful job getting much needed information into students hands/devices. I see Snapchat as a way for teachers to share out a change to the homework, or demonstration, or cool piece of content to their students on the app that takes up 80% of their time.
