How much is too much?

Social media is slowly taking over our world. From Facebook statuses to Twitter updates and Vine videos to Instagram photos, it is incredibly easy to share absolutely everything happening in your life on the Internet. Where is the line of crossing into "Too Much Information" Territory?

I am all for sharing educational information on this blog and Twitter to my education pals. If I find something useful for my classroom, why not share the wealth?! I want my friends to be success and have engaged students, but I don't appreciate the complaining I see on Facebook or Twitter of teachers who are tired or parents complaining about their children's teachers. Why put it up?

This upcoming generation is slowly growing up online, easily sharing information to their friends. Sexting and cyber-bullying has become a huge problem in schools and the real world. How can we help this situation?

In one of my graduate classes, we had a discussion about using cell phones as a learning tool in the classroom. I had to disagree with this use. Although there are definite apps that can be used as response systems, students can easily text, tweet, or Facebook chat while in the classroom. I think it would be best for students to leave their cell phones in their backpacks throughout the school day. Most of the students will be on them the second school is over anyway.

What do you feel about sharing too much information? Can this be helped at all or are we headed down the road of continuous, minute-by-minute status updates?
