Introduce a new way to retain knowledge from Kindle books | Diigo - 1 views

  •  
    On this is going to be a game changer for me! Not exactly social media, but ... Ty clipped from the Diigo blog, which led me there, and then I found this entry. I can import my highlighted passages from Kindle reading to Diigo? SOLD! I've felt limited by kindle reading/highlighting because then my notes are still stuck on the kindle. But with this integration ... oh my, the possibilities!

  • redundancies between social media
  • as well as legacy systems such as long‐standing databases.
  • They highlighted that a single tool cannot satisfy all employee needs, and how differences emerged between groups;
  • Muller et al (2012) noted how social media were appropriated differently across groups when creating and using shared resources and forming relationships. The variation of usage could result in isolation of both resources and groups and create barriers for information sharing as well as reduce networking (Yuan et al., 2013).
  • leading to potentially conflicting modes of communication.
  • As researchers continue to study social media, contradictory findings show that their self‐organising and open‐ended nature makes it difficult to predict the actual adoption and use within the workplace, and how they contribute to maintaining coherence in work activities.

YouTube in the classroom - 3 views

  •  
    This article is long however it gives some great information about using YouTube in the classroom. It is divided up into a few chapters so not all of it needs to be consumed. In short it is a research study about how educators use the web2.0 tool YouTube. It talks about how we can integrate it in the class, features of the site, and how to use the site. It also highlights some of the problems that came up with usage during the study.

    Awesome! I love YouTube and I definitely utilize this tool A LOT in my high school English classroom. I enjoy how youtube also has the ability to focus on strictly educational materials. Visuals are so important for students to create concrete connections. Great artice!

    YouTube is my favorite video-based network. Videos are intrinsically motivating and engaging. I agree with the point in the article that the videos that are informative, humorous, current, interesting and engaging are most preferred by students, but instructors choose a video based on its instructional value, not simply due to its humorous content. The article entirely and detailly introduces the tool. Additionally, the following article is also a great material to learn YouTube. Duffy, P. (2007). Engaging the YouTube Google‐Eyed Generation: Strategies for Using Web 2.0 in Teaching and Learning. In European Conference on eLearning, ECEL.

Billion Dollar Bully highlights why Yelp feels unfair. - 2 views

  •  
    The article extends beyond just discussing Yelp, to other community based internet knowledge platform sites like Wikipedia. Wikipedia is given a pass because it is nonprofit and has an active community dedicated to accuracy- review sites like Yelp and Google have financial considerations that possibly impact their ability to be totally impartial. Do you rely on online review sites? How much weight do you give them when making decisions?

    I am a heavy user of Tripadvisor when I plan vacations and read hundreds of reviews on lodging, restaurants, and attractions. While I'm quite sure some of the reviews are fake, some of them are obviously fake or are done by persons who seem to be very disgruntled with life in general. When I look at reviews I prefer those that include photos and plenty of details. I tend to ignore the ones that just say things like "I hated it" or "I loved it" as they offer no real value.
  •  
    This is such an interesting topic! I am not a heavy user of review sites but seeing this (https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/) makes me feel strange.

Digigogy: Collection or Curation? - 2 views

  •  
    This is a very informative blog post that examines the difference between collections and curations. Admittedly, I have never given the subject too much thought, but the author explains it in a way that highlights concepts that differentiate the two. Some notable points made are that curations involve deeper critical thinking skills, they can be defined as "purposeful collections" and subjective based on the understanding of the curator.
  •  
    I have been thinking about collection versus curation in our readings this week. Your article made me think about a discussion we have at home. My husband is a collector and he talks often about how museums only show, curate certain pieces. He often comments that he hesitates to donate to a museum because it could be such that the pieces are never shown or are sold. I think this ties into the subjective nature.

Motivation and sustained participation in the online crowdsourcing community: the moder... - 2 views

  • Specifically, reputation-based reward satisfies crowdworkers' need for status improvement (Ye and Kankanhalli, 2017); recognition-based reward meets their need for positive recognition and attention (Leimeister et al., 2009) and feedback-based reward enables them to acquire concrete information about the quality and value of their submission (Feng et al., 2018).
  • Specifically, hedonic reward highlights the importance of providing enjoyable participation experiences (Rockmann and Ballinger, 2017; Ye and Kankanhalli, 2017); and eudaimonic reward emphasizes the necessity to promote crowdworkers' tendency to employ crowdsourcing community for psychologically worthwhile experiences (Mekler and Hornbæk, 2016).
  • There are four types of contextual extrinsic motivations in the online crowdsourcing community: monetary reward, reputation-based reward, recognition-based reward and feedback-based reward.

  • There are two types of contextual intrinsic motivations in the online crowdsourcing community: hedonic reward and eudaimonic reward. Hedonic reward refers to the pleasures and enjoyment of engaging in the online crowdsourcing community (Deng and Joshi, 2016).
  • Eudaimonic reward refers to the crowdworkers' need for achieving self-determination value and fulfilling their life pursuit in the online crowdsourcing community (Ryan et al., 2008).
  •  
    In their study, Wei and Xiang (2021) examine how motivation sustains participation in an online sourcing community. After reading Zhao and Zhu's (2014) work, I explored this topic further as they recommended it for future research. Overall, their work revealed that both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation were critical. External motivators included improved reputation, recognition, and feedback, whereas internal motivators related to emotional feelings of happiness and pleasure.
