| Summary: | Social media presents both challenges and opportunities regarding education and professional development in Christian ministry within and beyond the classroom. Ministers, like those in other professional fields, must manage their digital footprint to avoid costly mistakes. Similarly, Christian educators may find themselves establishing guidelines to protect the safety of students and professional practice due to unwanted social media use. In the face of the challenges, social media may still offer creative options, harnessing selective attention often attributed to multitasking. Case studies highlight the possible steps Christian educators may use to respond proactively with social media in the classroom. |
