      This is the main idea ---->
  • 2012 study
  • results show
  • ...96 more annotations...
  • faculty
  • very aware of social media
  • levels of social media adoption
  • for teaching purposes lag behind both personal and professional use
  • blogs and wikis

      I wonder why this is...Is it because blogs and wikis are the most practical, or are professors afraid to branch out?
  • faculty are growing more sophisticated in their use of social media
  • certain platforms
  • personal use
  • others for professional
  • instructional purposes
  • pattern might be linked to more experience on social sites

      Do you think there is a place for social media sites like Facebook in education, or should they be corned into the section of personal use only?

      These are both great resources!
  • students are now more interested
  • YouTube
  • significant levels of faculty concern around using these sites.
  • use both social media and networking sites in teaching
  • would do more with technology if I had more time to develop things
  • more direction

      Time always seems to be an issue when it comes to developing technology tools, especially if it is the first time a person is using it and trying to familiarize themselves with it.
  • eight barriers

      Interesting...I wonder why?
  • privacy concerns by faculty
  • warranted
  • 13 million users either didn't know about or hadn't cared to set their Facebook privacy settings
    • Kate Singler
      Kate Singler on 17 Nov 14
       
      Wow, that's a little scary...
  • Facebook and Google's privacy policies are harder to comprehend than the average bank credit card agreement
  • social media policies are non-existent or "gray
  • faculty concerns
  • decreasing over time

      Could institutions provide professional development in the realm of social media and its incorporation into the classroom to help these individuals tap into the asset of social media?
  • concerned about removing the "invisible" barrier between instructors and students
  • what you don't know can hurt you
  • FERPA
  • strategies for bringing social media into the teaching and learning process while being mindful of integrity and privacy issues
  • create a single Twitter account for their class
  • have the students manage the Twitter account
  • can't tweet from their own
  • students learn what content is appropriate or "tweet-worthy"
  • job postings requiring social media skills rose 87 percent
  • there is something to be said for being concise where it counts

      Interesting concept, and a good point, well made!
  • one of the most popular sites for social sharing for educators
  • a great content-curation tool for instructor
  • create resource boards for themselves, other instructors, or their own students, and use the boards for classroom assignments
  • offers no privacy controls

      I didn't realize the lack of privacy controls on Pinterest until I started pinning things for my wedding.  I had dozens upon dozens of notifications of people repinning this and liking that - mainly from people I didn't know.  I can see where this could be worrisome for educators.
  • on't add any comments that can be taken out of context
  • Think before you pin
  • Don't add any comments that can be taken out of context
  • better privacy protections
  • word clouds
  • see if they've used certain words or phrases too often

      That's really interesting!  I hadn't thought to use Wordle in that way before!
  • walled garden

      I'm not sure I understand what this means...
  • students use social content and toolsets within the environment of an LMS that incorporates social content and tools
  • separate, unique profile specific to academic pursuits
  • educators create a private group on a public social network
    • Kate Singler

      Like our EDLT 561 class has!
  • faculty can ensure distinct boundaries between students' schoolwork and social lives on these sites.
  • concerns are decreasing over time
  • student/alumni community
  • cannot fully replace face-to-face encounters
  • not everybody participates
  • The more that faculty members understand the effective uses of social media for teaching and learning, and the better the industry gets at learning how to balance "privacy" within the social sphere, the faster these new practices will proliferate across higher-education faculty and support student engagement and success.
