  • As part of the social media class, my students are required to set up a network of online mentors using social media tools.
  • This semester, I asked my students to “curate” that information the way a museum curator would curate an art exhibit.

  • which is a strange month anyway because aren’t we always connected?
    • Kevin Hodgson

    • Terry Elliott
       
      What happens if you do like Doug Belshaw does with his BlackOps month--no overt connection for a month.
