Social Media

Christine Daniels on 27 Jul 10

This article reinforces the importance of creating structure when using social media in the classroom. "... the use of social media in school can't be left to chance; it needs to be mediated." I think this article makes great points about integrating SM into the classroom and its role in empowering our students.

This is such an important topic, Christine. As we begin to bring the social media tools that our students use on an everyday basis into the classroom it is so important that we create that same "structure" and "guidance" that we do with all of the other tools and materials that we use. They need and expect this from us in this rapidly changing era of technology.

Just the perfect site to help me with the glossary we want to include in our Moodle training for teachers manual! It's funny the way these terms float around out there, but most people have only the haziest idea what they actually mean! I know for a fact that our teacher-learners will benefit from a concise definition of such things as "wiki", "blog", "RSS" and others. And framing these terms within the educational context makes the definitions even more meaningful.

Even stuffy ivy league universities are seeing the value of adding social media classes to their MBA programs to encourage new business models. Part of this is a reaction to some embarrassing errors made by major corporations: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/31/education/31iht-riedmba.html

Thanks for posting this Cathy! Ken and I were having a difficult time finding images that were free to use in education. We did not want to find ourselves using materials without permission. Thanks for the post!

Great site, Christine. I found a video by Alan November, one of the true gurus and prophets regarding technology. Every Cometeer should watch his video about the emerging classroom. I also found a link here to a great site with documentary videos about 21st Century Learning -- http://newlearninginstitute.org/21stcenturyeducation/ There are some fascinating videos here about what is going on at schools around the country.
