The Art of Texting Students
We’ve all heard that today’s students prefer text messages to just about any other communication medium. But how do you use text messaging effectively? When should you text?

Learn the answers to these and many other burning questions so you can decide whether text messaging is something you should pursue and how to do it successfully.
