    Being proactive is key in harnessing the power of emerging technologies like social media. Check out this article on the implications of social media in the workplace from an HR perspective. Try looking at the content through the eyes of an IT specialist. Directly from the article "The Bottom Line" Organizations must develop strong policies and implement them in a defensible way. If there are no internal resources with the hybrid legal and IT experience needed to execute a smart e-discovery strategy, it's advisable to hire outside expertise. Getting your e-discovery ducks in a row may be a tall order, but it can be done. Here are some guidelines: 1. Know your enemy. Find out what kinds of social media tools are being used in your organization and why. 2. Don't try to ban social media. Locking down your company's Internet access is an unrealistic goal, and it sends the wrong message to employees. 3. Establish good policies. Consider legal risks in all of the company's existing policies, including corporate communications and acceptable use policies. 4. Educate employees. Communicate why policies are important for the well-being of the organization and its staff. 5. Solicit feedback. Ask users for their input about policy changes. This will go a long way in ensuring adoption. 6. Keep it short. Make policies clear and understandable, and cut the legal jargon. Provide guidelines and examples to help employees understand the company's expectations. 7. Require employees to certify (in writing) their understanding and compliance with all corporate policies. 8. Track and audit the use of social media sites. This will provide valuable insight about policy compliance and the nature of social media use. Most importantly, learn to embrace social media for all of its benefits. Used properly, social media tools enhance your brand, foster collaboration, and help build the kinds of relationships you need to develop successful teams.

  • There’s a good video on YouTube on How To Use A Flip Video Camera. How To Us A Flip Camera is a simple guide with screenshots. David Pogue of the New York Times has a good review/description on using a Flip, and also has a video. Here are some tips on how to edit your videos after you’ve shot them. Here are some places to get ideas and tips on using them with students: Thirty-Nine Interesting Ways* to use your Pocket Video Camera in the Classroom is a great online presentation from Tom Barrett. 7 Things You Should Know About Flip Camcorders is a good overview on using them in education. Classroom 2.0 has a good discussion on its Forum about using Flips. I believe you can access it without being a member but, if not, it’s free and easy to join. Richard Byrne has started a collaborative project with teachers sharing Many Ways to Use Flip Video Cameras in the Classroom.

    Rt - I took the "Day in the Life of a Gaggle Student" webinar. I later contacted the webinar team and asked for a copy of the presenter's notes. They sent a PDF "Getting Started with Apps Guide.pdf" highlighting the newest Gaggle Apps. I'll post it in our Google docs for you to take a look at. I'll email it to everyone but here is the link if you want to dive right in. https://docs.google.com/a/buffaloschools.org/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B_w6YKU5SNpCYzE4M2FiZjUtZjYzYy00MGUxLTg0NmEtZWRlZDYzOWFkOTYx&hl=en&authkey=CNOQkf8H

  • Many think of Twitter as a place where people post insignificant updates about themselves. You know, "I'm getting a coffee." There was a time when I thought the whole concept was silly. Then, Twitter transformed...actually Twitter users developed new ways to use this communication tool. Here's how educators are using Twitter to collaborate and learn more about their craft.
  • Hashtags changed everything. Twitter users have developed ways to search for content and one of the most important innovations is the hashtag (#). A hashtag is text inside a twitter post (called a tweet) that starts with a # and then some text (i.e., #hashtag). This provides a very efficient way to search for content.
  • - Note - The power of Twitter for professional development is not the tweets themselves...it's the links to broader content.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • To make the process even easier, download and install Tweetdeck. http://www.tweetdeck.com/ Tweetdeck is a program that allows you to perform multiple hashtag searches at the same time.
  • Putting this all together, here's how I personally use Twitter for my own professional development. I start each day by starting up Tweetdeck. I have a number of hashtag searches setup as well as people I follow. I scan the page and see what jumps out at me. Usually, these tweets have links to articles, tips, lesson plans, etc. I click the link, explore the content and try to learn something new. Using this method I can definitely say I learn something new every day.
