"Brett Moller is head of learning and educational
technologies at a private school in Queensland, Australia. He was
working as a media teacher at his previous school when he used Facebook
in a project with another teacher who taught religion. The religion
teacher expressed a desire to use media more in his classroom, so Moller
showed him Facebook. For several years, Moller had his students post
their final films on Facebook. Brett connected with a group of media
professionals who gave his students positive feedback about their films,
all of which was done through Facebook." ~"Teaching in a Socially
Networked Classroom"
