Added to Facebook Debate:
An interesting and necessary debate. With reference to using facebook as one of many mediums for a school/faculty/teacher to communicate I think a solution is the school/faculty/teacher has it's/their own page. As one of the contributors below wrote students and parents can become 'fans of' and keep up to date with the school and faculties. In terms of communicating with students one-one I suggest we continue with school webmail. My concern to friending students is opening up channels of uncertainty where educators may not be protected against unsolicited content that may be posted, in particular images of minors. Having said this i know settings could be set to not accept wall postings, etc. So I guess there are a number of options available for schools.
Regards,
N.B. Keen to here from more school as to the way they are dealing with this.
