  • Why is Twitter useful? Great tool for sharing ideas, thoughts, and comments about things we care about and have expertise in. Being that conversations are in almost real-time, it is an excellent tool for sharing breaking news stories, related experiences, etc.   Remember the miraculous US Airways plane landing on the Hudson river?  People were twittering pictures and information as the story was unfolding.  In times of recent natural disasters, Twitter has been an amazing way for people to track and keep tabs on their loved ones.  Allows you to connect to people in many ways.  Twitter allows you to find out what individuals and groups of individuals are thinking about.

Education in a Social World| The Committed Sardine - 0 views

  • The most compelling economic argument, however, is that students collaborating and helping each other is, of course, free. Not only is it free, but also, there is a compounding effect on learning because the student doing the teaching learns as well as the student being taught.
  • Why limit your student population to a few hundred when you can leverage the knowledge of hundreds of millions? In the school of social learning, students from all over the world collaborate every day. The No. 1 asset any student has in school is their peers, and it’s our job as instructional designers and administrators to facilitate that interaction. By continuing to crowd source, filter, and raise the best questions, answers, explanations, and hints to the top, we reap the benefits not just as educators but as a society.

We can't let educators off the hook | Dangerously Irrelevant - 2 views

  •  
    "Whether they're teachers or administrators or librarians or education professors, they have a voluntarily-assumed, paid responsibility to be relevant to the needs of children and education TODAY and to prepare graduates as best they are able for TOMORROW. 'Professional priorities' must be aimed at preparing students for the world as it is and will be. Otherwise, what are educators there for? You can't 'firmly believe in life-long learning' and simultaneously not be clued in to the largest transformation in learning that ever has occurred in human history. Those two don't co-exist. Being a 'life-long learner' is not ignoring what's going on around you; you don't get to claim the title of 'effective educator' if you do this."
