EDUCATIONAL SOCIAL NETWORK
OPPORTUNITY
As classrooms around the world continue to integrate technology into learning environments, educators and students face a critical need for safe, engaging, and productive digital spaces. While social media is widely used by students, most mainstream platforms are not designed with education, privacy, or academic interaction in mind. There is a growing demand for a curated resource that identifies educational social networks—tools that foster communication, collaboration, and creativity while maintaining classroom safety and focus.

APPROACH
Logic Nosh adopted a research-driven and educator-centric approach to the development of this resource. The project began with a thorough review of commonly used educational tools, followed by a usability audit and content mapping aligned with Common Sense Education’s framework for safe technology use. The team focused on clean, accessible UI design, ensuring that users—from tech-savvy educators to first-time teachers—could navigate and apply the resource effortlessly.
Throughout development, Logic Nosh maintained a commitment to clarity, accuracy, and educational value. The result is a resource that not only informs, but empowers educators to bring safe and meaningful digital interaction into their classrooms.
