YOUTUBE
Youtube can be a great tool in the classroom. It is a platform where students can search and watch videos on many different topics. There are many different channels on Youtube that can help a teacher spice up their classroom, such as Crash Course. For one of my past classes, our teacher had us find youtube music videos that related to a specific topic (mine was feminism) and create a playlist of them, and then write a short paper on how each video related to the topic.
LINKEDIN
LinkedIn is a tool that I wish I was taught how to use earlier in my life. As a teacher, I would implement it into my classroom from the start. I want my students to be prepared for their professional life and they shouldn't have to wait until college to learn how to use it. I would have each student create a profile at the beginning of the year and add to it as they joined different clubs or held different jobs. This could also be very motivating and educational for kids to help them find activities/jobs/internships that will help boost them later in life.
