  • anonymous on 05 Aug 11
     
    This is a very helpful article; I agree with the author about students' cell phone use and engagement, and using google voice in a cell phone activity like this would seem to engage students and keep them on a productive task. My students have much more access to phone than to computers with recording functions.

      Good example of how an educator used twitter to chat with an author. Also detailed her proposal to admin to override the twitter block. Great if your school blocks twitter.

      I wonder how she did this? I think this would be of high interest for my world geography teachers. Would certainly add a new dimension to reporting out on current events in different parts of the world.
  • Teachers and librarians are finding Twitter’s great for research, too. Karen Burns, a librarian at Gig Harbor High School in Washington state, created a Twitter search widget for current events in Africa to help ninth graders with their research projects.

College 2.0: Academics and Colleges Split Their Personalities for Social Media - Techno... - 1 views

chronicle.com/...127936 GroupD socialmedia academia
shared by Roxana Sandu on 18 Jul 11 - No Cached
  • Many professors and higher-education leaders are struggling to strike a balance between their personal and professional lives when using online social media, a realm that encourages widespread sharing of thoughts and opinions. Often that means creating multiple accounts, one for each of the hats they wear. Some professors use Facebook with friends and family, reserving Twitter for professional observations, or vice versa.
  • There may be a benefit to that kind of sharing. Ms. Johnson recently conducted a survey of 120 students at the college about what they thought of a series of Twitter feeds run by professors. The majority of students found the professors who mixed in personal details with their down-to-business tweets more credible—rating them higher on measures of competence, trustworthiness, and caring. Her theory: Students want to end the semester with a connection to their professors, not just a head full of facts.

    An article about how some of the academics manage both personal and professional accounts on Twitter, FB etc.
  • Martha Borden on 19 Jul 11
     
    Ms. Johnson's survey findings has made me think on my own personal rule of keeping school and personal separate in cyberspace. Question still remains is: at what age is it appropriate for teachers to mix school and personal...middle school, high school, college?

28 Creative Ways Teachers Are Using Twitter | Best Colleges Online - 1 views

      I almost feel overwhelmed with all this information of how to use Twitter for educational purposes. Some of the ideas are great and they look fun, definitely aiding to the traditional ways of teaching. What caught my attention at this list of creative ways teachers use Twitter is creating a TWIBE - have any of you heard of this before or used it? If yes, how did it work?
  • Supplement foreign language lessons: Twitter’s unique spacing limitations make for an interesting way to nurture foreign language acquisition. Tweet a sentence in a foreign language at the beginning of the day or class and ask students to either translate or respond in kind as a quick, relatively painless supplement.
  • ______ of the day: No matter the class, a vocabulary word, book, song, quote or something else "of the day" might very well make an excellent supplement to the day’s lesson. When teaching younger kids, tell their parents about the Twitter feed and encourage them to talk about postings at home.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Create a twibe: Build networks beyond Twitter itself and set up (or have students set up) a twibe, bringing together other classrooms or professionals. These networks not only serve to broaden one’s perspective, but offer an interesting lesson in how online communities come together, sustain themselves or fall apart.

      A few of my students use Prezi. Basically like powerpoint, but visually a little more appealing. I'm assuming it's free, and probably stored in the cloud somewhere, so students can't really "lose" or forget it.

      I was expecting something totally different when I clicked on this article. Teaching at a community college, I thought it might be about online behavior on a discussion board assignment or something online and collaborative. Even though it was about something else, I found this tool to be fascinating and thought if I taught in the K-12 system, this would be a great tool.

  • ClassCharts uses html 5 so should run in any modern browser whether it’s a laptop, iPad or Android tablet, so the teacher can use an tablet during the class to instantly update behaviours.
  • This is quite a complex tool and creates a lot of data, so I think it’s going to take a bit of getting used to for teachers and perhaps a bit of training too.

      This seems a great means to motivate critical thinking and intercultural understanding through an interpretive task. Why are some "flavors" popular in certain regions of the Spanish-speaking world? How do they compare to the flavors popular in my community? What does this tell me about the cultural differences and similarities between the regions? Finally, using commercials as interpretive activities may provide useful starting points into further research and critical thinking-- e.g., in what other ways do stores advertise differently for the audiences we study?

    It seems somewhat self-explanatory, but by watching the tutorial I came up with a few ideas that would not have otherwise come up. Among them, I can use FG as a scaffolding activity to match student progress over the course of a quarter or semester. It offers a few features that could appropriately match this growth-- I can write a prompt with an image, video, video + link. Anyway, I can see now more clearly how to FG can be a great resource for my classroom.

  • Once the group is created, you can create student accounts. No email addresses needed. You create the username and password.
  • There are groups for all these where members can share their saves to not only their inventory but to the group as well. Diigo will email you once a week with all the new content. Pretty neat, huh? 
  • There are loads of other features as well, like highlighting on a webpage, adding sticky notes to pages, saving pages to read later without actually adding them to your collection and so much more.

  • One of the most powerful features is the tagging. Basically, if I save Google.com and don't tag it, I will have to remember the name of the site or something in the address
  • your saves don't travel with you from computer to computer and device to device.
  • So if students are working on a group project they can share their saves together, automatically. Or as a class, if you are working on something everyone can contribute information they find.
