Facebook or Blackboard

Mainly just by student e-mail on the school website, sometimes on blackboard. I don't think it's right to communicate through facebook because not every student has a page. I think e-mail is fine.

Edit: Nevermind, I thought you asked how does your school communicate to you. I have no idea about other schools communicating with mine.

Our school uses Nurses Lounge.com. It's fine, but I've heard of other SNAs setting themselves up as a class on Blackboard. I like that idea, too.

Does your school give each student an e-mail account?

Email.

*snort* All my instructors said the same thing, but I used it for a dozen classes with no problems. Our school switched to D2L last year and the instructors are much happier.

well, I cruise facebook while I'm supposed to be on blackboard. But if the instructor really wants me, it all goes through school email.

Our school uses both blackboard and facebook, I like facebook cause the reminders go directly to my phone, but I am on blackboard all the time cause of class, so its all there to see. Whatever, as long as I know what is going on, it is all good. I don't really use the school e-mail, cause it is such a pain to get into.

Ours is too, but with being on the computer so much, I just redirected it to my mail program that is always open. So school emails pop up all the time. I would look into that.

We use Blackboard, but the nursing student association does have a FB page. Blackboard is convenient, because they can post announcements. There are also discussion boards for ideas, networking, carpooling etc.

My favorite new idea generated this way is a student nurse family member support group. We are working on organizing one, since all of our relatives/spouses feel completely neglected. We want them to know they are not alone!!
