Instagram and Vine

 
Instagram   and   Vine
 Instagram and Vine are great social media platforms to connect with students.

Instagram is an online mobile photo sharing app. Users can share photos and videos on this social networking site for others to view.  Here are a couple ways you can use this app in the classroom or library:
*highlight books or events in the library
*post an image on Instagram as a writing prompt
*allow students to use Instagram to document evidence for a  special assignment
Here are a few pictures from my Instagram account




Vine is a short-form video sharing service app where users can share six-second long video clips with others.  I think librarians could make a six second video showcasing new books or highlighting events in the library.

  1. I like your ideas to use Instagram in the classroom. It seems like a pretty versatile app. Vine is a bit more focused simply because the time is so short! You need to figure out how best to say what you need to say.
