Abstract

This case study focuses on the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating social media into the K-12 economics curriculum. Ms. Smith, a high school economics teacher, faced a number of challenges when implementing social media into her teaching practices, including issues related to student engagement, cyberbullying, and privacy concerns. However, she also recognized the potential benefits of using social media in the classroom, including increased student engagement, improved collaboration and communication, and enhanced access to information and resources. To address these challenges, Ms. Smith implemented a number of remedies and measurements, including providing professional development for teachers, establishing clear guidelines for social media use, providing technical support, encouraging parent involvement, and regularly assessing the impact of social media on student learning. Through her approach, Ms. Smith was able to effectively integrate social media into her economics curriculum and enhance student learning and engagement.
