  •  
    Suggestions on ways to maximize efficiency, reminders that telling/sharing may not be the same as facilitating, and examples of ways to turn routine activities into collaborative or connective activities.
  •  
    I actually found myself getting excited about the thought of communicating with staff in a more effective and efficient way. So many times we attend staff meetings and have to take that time to read articles instead of using it to benefit our students' learning. I would love to see this changed SOON! #EdTechSN

Survey on Instant Messaging in an Online Class - 0 views

  •  
    This reports the results of a survey of students about using instant messaging in an asynchronous distance learning course in library science. The students came to believe that instant messaging was not appropriate for class related learning, but it was shown to have developed relationships between classmates and to have successfully simulated the types of informal relationships that occur in brick and mortar classrooms. These type of relationship can help build PLNs.

Activism and Social Media Course Projects | American University, Washington, DC - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks about a class where an instructor challenged her students to make a difference in a field of their choice using social media.

    This article gives one professors experiences on their successful use of Facebook in their British Literary History course.

    This is a student's response to using Facebook to generate discussion in a British Literature History class. Even though it is collegiate level, I think that this scenario could definitely work in the high school setting.
