However, you can be proactive in opening up social media in your school.Find out the Internet use policies in your institution or district, and the procedure for requesting that a Web site be unblocked.You may need to work with an administrator or a technology staffer on this process.When making your case for unblocking a site, include data and a strong justification for why the site will be useful to you and your students.
