The Schaffhauser article, “Suspended Teacher in Facebook Incident Ignites Debate: Should Online Privacy for Educators Exist?” touches upon some of the challenges that accompany sharing information on the internet. In this particular case, a teacher made a comment on Facebook about a student in her class that was meant for her friends but seen publicly (including by students). After reading the article, answer the following questions:
- Should the teacher who posted the comment to her friends be disciplined for her remarks she thought were made in private?
- How responsible are educators for their online content?
- Should online privacy exist for students and educators?
- Should we be able to separate our professional and personal profiles on social networks? Would it actually be feasible?
