7 "Must Do" Social Media Fixes For Business | Joerg Weishaupt - 0 views

  • Be Proactive
  • Listen
  • .  People are now, more than ever, voicing their opinions online to thousands of people through social media channels like Twitter – and they expect companies to respond.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • What happens if the company ignores it, is ignorant to the noise or is choosing not to engage in social media?  That pile of complaints only grows bigger.  As social media continues to grow, this is a trend that will only continue to grow.  If a business wants to make social media a part of their marketing and outreach efforts, then it’s necessary to stop talking once in a while and start listening.
  • Participate
  • It’s better to be involved so that a business can provide solutions and answers to issues that arise as opposed to being absent and letting the negative posts run their course.  If a company makes a concerted effort to rectify issues in social media, then others will see that effort and reward the company with their attention, understanding and likely their loyalty.
  • Respond
  • A part of participation as mentioned above.  You must respond in all instances.  While it used to be easy for a company to ignore letter writing campaigns and angry words through snail mail, that’s something that can’t be done anymore.  A company cannot ignore damaging accusations, especially through online interactions.
  • Responding doesn’t have to mean immediately giving in to people who are complaining or making demands of you.

      One research paper on E-service learning: A pedagogic innovation for healthcare management education, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16700443 It appears to be successful as they identified more areas for implementation: The authors then define and conceptualize e-service learning, including the anticipated outcomes of implementation such as enhanced access, quality, and cost effectiveness of healthcare management education. Because e-service learning is mediated by technology, we identify state of the art technologies that support e-service learning activities. In addition, possible e-service learning projects and activities that may be included in healthcare management courses such as finance, human resources, quality, service management/marketing and strategy are identified. Finally, opportunities for future research are suggested.

Tips for Using Chat as an Instructional Tool -- Campus Technology - 1 views

shared by yeuann on 25 Apr 12 - No Cached

    This article was written 5 years ago. Now, we have the benefit of ubiqutious mobile chat platforms e.g. Whatsapp, which can create small focus groups to talk about a particular topic. Not only so, besides the usual text, Whatsapp also allows participants to share mobile videos taken on the spot, share their geolocations with one another, share audio recordings and of course, images. A personal example of how I use Whatsapp for personal learning: I use Whatsapp regularly to practice reading and writing my Japanese with a few other friends, and when I make mistakes, they can quickly give me feedback in real-time. We also exchange photos of Japanese culture, food items and even on-the-spot videos from those who are in Japan. Some of us go for Japanese classes, some don't. But those who go for the classes share what they have learnt with those who haven't.  I'm not sure if this can be classified as a type of "flipped learning", but I realized that mobile chat makes an excellent real-time, yet highly personalized tool for e-learning in small group discussions. Perhaps this is one area we can consider next time as a way to do mobile learning that harnesses the social nature of us learners.

  • “If print culture shaped the environment from which the Enlightenment blossomed and set the scene for the Industrial Revolution, participatory media might similarly forge the cognitive and social environments in which 21st-century life will take place.”
  • the “literacy of participation,” and I guess this consists of the social norms of social media. What are they, and why are they so important?

    Seems like there is a dearth of mPortfolios that use open platforms and are not locked into proprietary systems. However, one interesting potential feature that I saw on the page was the idea of voice-to-text for uploading into e-Portfolios.  Am currently working on a mobile app that integrates with Google Sites. Shall explore the voice-to-text idea where possible

    A course registration system implemented in Google Docs. This template lets you send out a customized reply to people who register for a course. Your students can fill out a form to indicate which session they want to attend. Based on other submissions, the script can figure out which sessions are still open and send an automatic reply thanking people for registering and informing them of which session they got into.

shared by Kartini Ishak on 24 Aug 12 - No Cached
  • From an instructor’s perspective, Twitter offers the ability to prompt students throughout the learning process by asking them to reflect on learning strategies and time management, which ultimately raises metacognitive awareness.
  • While the use of Twitter only shows a slight increase in grades (about .5 percent), it substantially improves engagement and motivation
  • Twitter enhances the social presence outside of the classroom, which leads to overall course satisfaction.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • if student satisfaction, engagement, and metacognitive awareness are all part of your definition of a successful course, then introducing Twitter in your classroom may be an option for you.
  • Twitter is not static. Rather, it is an interactive tool under learner control. Further, Maria Bannert refers to a metacognitive support device that “focuses students’ attention on their own thoughts and on understanding the activities they are engaged in during the course of learning.” When used explicitly as a tool to improve self-regulation through metacognitive support, Twitter becomes very effective.
  • Kartini Ishak on 24 Aug 12
     
    An interesting article on how Twitter can be used as a metacognitive - thinking about your own learning - supportive device.
