    Thanks for sharing this tool! One of my biggest frustrations with e-books is the lack of compatibility with different readers. I would also like to find a better way to "share" a good e-book with friends and colleagues (like a hardcopy book) without having time limitations or additional fees for another download. Any suggestions that work and stay within fair use of copyrighted materials?

    Posting this here, because I'm interested in how influencers navigate content creation and copyright infringement. This may make a great case study for my popular music class, for the celebrity culture unit.

    This's very interesting and actually reminded me of a tweet that I'd come across a while ago. Maybe checking that tweet and how people reacted may give you an idea about this topic! Here's a link (https://bit.ly/37rAA6S) and I hope it works. You may want to sing in if you want to see the whole conversation. :)

    I knew someone who was a run-of-the-mill blogger (audience of 300 or so) who had another blogger start to copy her blog, post for post. It was creepy. I can't recall how it all ended -- was about 15 years ago.

    I stumbled on this and wanted to share this if anyone wants to take the time to read about Web 2.0 and online communities. There is a lot of stuff we already know, but a lot that we don't know. Seems like this fits right in with Produsage.

    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!

    author: George Ligon IV I recently read an article about a study on college students use of Youtube to support academic learning. According to Alexa (2015), Youtube is the third most visited website in the world (as cited by Moghavvemi, Sulaiman, Jaafar, & Kasem, 2018). The study explored students' usage and their perceptions of Youtube's effectiveness as an academic learning tool. Out of 312 respondents 71% stated they used Youtube for academic learning purposes (Moghavvemi, Sulaiman, Jaafar, & Kasem, 2018). According to Moghavvemi et al. (2018), 76% of respondents stated they used Youtube to learn how to solve problems, 77% used it to answer questions, and 83% used it to watch videos that were suggested by friends. In addition to this, Moghavvemi et al. (2018), reported 70.5% of respondents believed they learned more from watching Youtube than reading a book. Thus, the findings supported previous studies which found using videos to teach was an effective tool to enhance academic performance (Moghavvemi, Sulaiman, Jaafar, & Kasem, 2018). References Moghavvemi, S., Sulaiman, A., Jaafar, N. I., & Kasem, N. (2018, March). Social media as a complementary learning tool for teaching and learning: the case of youtube.

    This article describes a high school teacher's yearslong journey in introducing and managing Twitter in her classroom. She begins with this observation, "Students participated more readily when the tools they already used outside school were acceptable in the classroom," and then goes on to describe how she made school constituents comfortable with her adoption of the platform. This is followed by the actual ways in which she used it (announcements - sharing articles blogs - classtags - extension of class discussion- digital citizenship - Tweetdeck). She addressed one of my questions about her choice to use Twitter, sharing that it was the unreliability of the LMS that led her to use Twitter from sharing information at first, but over time, she observed many benefits such as clarity in writing through the mandatory economy. Even after the expansion to 280 characters, only 5% of tweets were longer than 140 words! One powerful takeaway was the experience of a long haired male student who had the experience of being listened to without judgment. Twitter in her experience allowed for marginalized voices to be heard.

    "Jean M Twenge Ph.D" discusses how research presented in Adam Conover's YouTube video "Millennials Don't Exist" was misrepresented and how she and Adam were later able to discuss their differing viewpoints rather than bash each other on social media as many would have.

    These two articles are great. She linked to another article in there "How do we know the millennial generation exists? Look at the data" that made me appreciate more how they study generational differences- they compare the results of surveys given to 18 year olds of different years. That does sound like a much more powerful way to measure generational differences. One of the examples was the change in opinion of same sex marriages between 18 year olds in 1976 and today, which made a giant leap in approval. I'm curious what a survey of those now 61 year olds feel about the same topic- if their approval also raised, while it would show a generational difference of opinion at a certain age, it might show a closer agreement between generations on certain topics in the here and now. I wonder how those 18 year olds in 1976 compared to people 43 years older then them, too! I liked her final optimistic take on discussing differing viewpoints. At the same time, I don't necessarily agree with her that all speakers (certainly some of the ones who were banned from speaking at universities) should be given a platform. While discussion is always good, it needs to be honest and faithful; I don't believe that some people are interested in discussion, they just want to win and prove themselves right.

    I wish more people could debate that way! I agree that not everyone wants to discuss- some just want to argue and be heard!

    Thanks for sharing! Twenge has had to defend a lot of her literature on generational studies. I read her iGen book before and the criticism she's received on that topic as well. Very interesting!
