This is exactly one of the projects that my staff would like to do. . . centering
around their Shakespeare readings. That is one of the requests that had prompted
my recent postings about using Facebook in a K-12 setting.
Is anyone at all concerned that this would be a clear violation of facebook policy?

Responses:
1. Exactly, the possibilities are endless. We recently were traned by our
ITS in a program called "Chatsy". It is a social networking program, but
safe and confined. The students LOVE it.
2. We use a program called Study Whiz for this assignment, it works similar
to Facebook. The students creat a blog for their character and they have
to interact with other characters for a grade. The students are given
specific assignments, so there is some structure. They love it!
3. There's a whole book about lit characters and facebook - something about Ophelia
joined....
You might want to check it out before reinventing the wheel! It's funny.
4. Here is an example of a mock Facebook feed covering the events of "Pride and
Prejudice." There's a link at the bottom where you can find one for "Hamlet" and
other titles as well, I believe. This is a bit old, so there would definitely be
more things students could add from today's Facebook, but it might be a good start.

Hope this info is useful to you. Thanks to all members who took the time to
respond.
