    Ask a Teacher

    You article is good and encompasses most points of view regarding cell phones in school. However I didn't read anywhere what teachers thought or how Cell phones in school can impact the teacher. The site below has a good article with the teachers point of view on the subject.

    Geotag

    Try some alternatives that remove geotags from photos automatically when they are shared. One of the best ones I've seen is a free app from Pixelgarde. It works on iPhone, Android and PC. It lets you see all the personal data in your photos and selectively remove what you don't want to share. Here's a link: http://www.pixelgarde.com/
    Hope this helps.

    Adult Content

    Cell C should forced to protect the rights of children from adult content subscriptions and premium rated sms. They turn a blind eye and dig their heads in the sand as if its not their problem. They are the service providers and they should take responsiblity. Vodacom and MTN have services to assist parents - so should Cell C.

    Why not 2 profiles?

    What's to prevent the teacher from having 2 profiles? 1 for their own circle of friends & another for school? That way the "school" profile could be kept up to date with appropriate photos/videos & status updates with information relevant to the current classroom activities. It could to some extent serve as an additional study channel for the pupils & would allow a less formal type of interaction than the classroom environment but still remain professional.

    Rather not confuse the relationship

    It is my personal opinion that Facebook should be used for communicating with friends only. Befriending a student or teacher online blurs the boundaries, especially with a teacher who holds an authoritative position in society. However, should a group be formed on Facebook to share class related information, strict guidelines and control needs to be implemented.
