Thought this article might be of interest to you -- especially as we consider Web 2.0 and formal learning. You can get it from the FSU library if you're logged in. If you don't know how to log in for distance library access, look at the top right of the library home page for the link. Ask Vanessa or Shuang if you need help.

Survey (audience: higher ed librarians) about emerging technology use among students. [NOTE: Need to be logged in to FSU libraries to access/download full article)

As a person who crafts and post their personal work on the web, I appreciate the focus on copyright and personal intellectual property information shared in this article. It is a mazing how many people and businesses "borrow" ideas from others without giving credit.

LIfeSpan of a Tweet (doesn't appear to be in FSU's library -- I'm going to see if ILL will get it for me. Let me know if you want me to share ...).

if you're off campus, you can access this article via the FSU library -- just log in there first.

As I see the word 'categorizing' I just wanted to read the article. The author states that expert ICT teachers engage in social media activities in different ways based on their conceptualization of 'professional learning.' I think this article requires careful, slow reading. It is a little bit intense for me! :-)

"What is an Open Educational Resource?"

The bookmark provides a great infographic to recall the benefits of Open Education Resources. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for sharing! I appreciate the highlights and annotations.

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.

Students from American College of Norway, the University of North Dakota, and Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University in Port Elizabeth, South Africa came together through technology with the objective to have engage in a dialogue on topics such as like world peace, sustainable peace and global citizenship. Students were using this as an opportunity to connect to one another. Students were excited for the opportunity to engage, they had exposure to great speakers (digitally) and materials. They were connected to one another via online channels. Students answered questions on a blog and on Facebook, and although at first the answers may have been surface level, eventually student answers became more sophisticated. The study concludes by acknowledging the value of studying abroad, but recognizing that not all students have the opportunity to do so. Some of the value of study abroad is the exposure to culture and enhanced desire to learn, with technology it is possible to help students develop a passion for learning and create a sense of understanding for global issues.

Coincidentally, some library colleagues and I are trying to implement this into FSU. We hope to find a department interested in using all OER textbooks. It seems like a challenge, but we are confident that if one school will jump on board, students will encourage others to follow their example!

This is an excellent share. I have never heard of this, but I am now looking forward to Week 5!

What a great resource!
