The Importance of Managing Your Online Reputation « emergent by design - 17 views

  •  
    Will Rich points to this post re 'online reputation' and job readiness. For me it points to the need for students to use the social tools together with adult help rather than separately as when banned from use at school. And of course..how to help, really?!

Study Shows Students Are Addicted to Social Media | News | Communications of the ACM - 4 views

  • most college students are not just unwilling, but functionally unable to be without their media links to the world. "I clearly am addicted and the dependency is sickening," says one person in the study. "I feel like most people these days are in a similar situation, for between having a Blackberry, a laptop, a television, and an iPod, people have become unable to shed their media skin."
  • what they wrote at length about was how they hated losing their personal connections. Going without media meant, in their world, going without their friends and family
  • they couldn't connect with friends who lived close by, much less those far away

  • "Texting and IM-ing my friends gives me a constant feeling of comfort," wrote one student. "When I did not have those two luxuries, I felt quite alone and secluded from my life. Although I go to a school with thousands of students, the fact that I was not able to communicate with anyone via technology was almost unbearable."
  • students' lives are wired together in such ways that opting out of that communication pattern would be tantamount to renouncing a social life
  • "Students expressed tremendous anxiety about being cut-off from information,"
  • How did they get the information? In a disaggregated way, and not typically from the news outlet that broke or committed resources to a story.
  • the young adults in this study appeared to be generally oblivious to branded news and information
  • an undifferentiated wave to them via social media
  • 43.3 percent of the students reported that they had a "smart phone"

The Innovative Educator: The Innovative Educator's Advice for Managing Your Digital Footprint - 19 views

  • I branded myself to have an online identity of which I’m proud. This is an important skill to teach students. Equally important is conveying the idea that being safe and responsible online does not mean hiding your identity but rather defining it and owning it.

    Equally important is conveying the idea that being safe and responsible online does not mean hiding your identity but rather defining it and owning it. Below are articles I have written for educators and parents to help their students do the same.

Can a Facebook page replace the need for a website? - 23 views

  • One thing is for certain: Custom Facebook page landing tabs have a huge impact on encouraging users to convert into followers.

      If schools and nonprofits wish to make money they should also have initiatives on Facebooks.

      Our family has a non-profit organization and it is wonderful to learn about this Facebook initiative.

  • A targeted subsection of another site: If you need to brand and market a subset of your organization and the gap between the markets or messages is too diverse, a Facebook page might offer you a home on the web without the need to develop another site. That said, WordPress can be an easy way to get a strong site up and running – we’d recommend giving it a good look before ruling out another site.

» How to Use This Free Screencasting Tool for E-Learning The Rapid eLearning Blog - 0 views

  • You may have heard the news last week that Articulate launched a new screencasting tool called Screenr.  It is a free web-based tool that lets you create screencasts without installing any software.
  • My favorite…there’s no branding on the downloaded MP4 files.  Since you can download the videos, you’re free to use them as you wish.  That means you can use it in your elearning courses without looking like one of those MLS soccer players.  Go Sounders!  And of course, Screenr is free.  Free is always good.
  •  
    Anything from Articulate is worth looking at. I suspect this will go toe to toe with Jing.
