"Educators and students must both learn to participate in the social media realm, but participate in a way that is smart, educational and valuable. Since we are educating them on effective communication, we must be prepared to use social media tools inside of the classroom to get this point across. From personal conversations with other educators using social media, and chats with #SMCEDU, its clear that social media integration is not widely accepted or practiced across the USA. Its something Social Media Club- EDU aims to help facilitate through guidelines, training workshops, best practices and policy."

A Google jockey is a participant in a presentation or class who surfs the Internet for terms, ideas, Web sites, or resources mentioned by the presenter or related to the topic. The jockey's searches are displayed simultaneously with the presentation, helping to clarify the main topic and extend learning opportunities. The "7 Things You Should Know About..." series from the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI) provides concise information on emerging learning practices and technologies.

Though this article is written for the business sector, there are many great parallels with how we experience social media's acceptance in the educational realm. The suggestions that are given are readily applied to our setting, as well. In the enterprise, many employees think blogs are merely websites on which people talk about their cat or their latest meal. Many don't know the differences between and advantages of such tools as message boards, blogs, and wikis. They have heard of these terms in passing, but the demands of their day-to-day jobs have prevented them from recognizing the distinct benefits of each tool. Solution: It is useless to advocate for social media tools in a vacuum. Unless you're describing a solution to a practical problem, busy workers will not respond to buzzwords like "wiki," "blog," and "community." Your client usually has about a 30-second attention span in which you can sell a social media tool. An aide in my arsenal has been the excellent videos by Lee Lefever at Common Craft. Lee visually explains social media concepts "In Plain English." Common Craft videos quickly explain complex and sometimes unfamiliar technologies in a few minutes, sans the buzzwords, hype, and sensationalism. Problem: Cynical Clients Who Don't Want to Share Information Unfortunately, some potential SharePoint users balk at the technology because they have no desire to share their knowledge for the benefit of the organization. These individuals tend to equate their knowledge with job security; therefore, they feel nervous about sharing out of fear that they wouldn't be needed any more.

Just because you build a wiki, doesn't mean they will come. This has been my and other faculty members' experiences in using wikis in the classroom. We all know the feeling . . . the excitement of seeing and then using a type of software that should be just perfect to engage students and to enable community-building. We work during our break time to incorporate this learning technology in our course only to find out that students aren't that excited about it. I think one of the reasons for the lackluster student enthusiasm toward any type of new technology tool is that they need to learn it. I'm not saying that students are lazy . . . it's just that the internal question, "what's in it for me?" probably needs to be answered.

Son makaleler Linkin Park / A Thousand Suns Yayinlandi: Jan 23, 2011 by Administrator Categoru: Music Linkin Park'ın merakla beklenen 4. stüdyo albümü "A Thousand Suns" Rock FM'in katkılarıyla ve Warner etiketiyle raflardaki yerini aldı! Yapımcılığını, grubun 2007 çıkışlı "Minutes to Midnight" albümünün de prodüksiyonunu gerçekleştirmiş olan Rick Rubin (U2, Johnny Cash, Limp Bizkit, Nine Inch Nails, Red Hot Chili Peppers) ve grup elemanı Mike Shinoda'nın üstlendiği albümün ilk single'ı ise 'The Catalyst'...

İleri seviyede sound'u ile tamamıyla kendine özgü, piyasadaki albümlerden apayrı bir çalışma olacak" açıklamasında bulunan Shinoda, albümün "Minutes to Midnight"a oranla daha tutarlı bir çizgiye ve deneyselliğe sahip olduğunu da belirtti. İlk single 'The Catalyst'in grup üyesi Joseph Hahn tarafından çekilen videosunun prömiyeri ise Ağustos ayında gerçekleşti. "A Thousand Suns"ın standart albüm versiyonunun yanı sıra CD+DVD versiyonu da müzikseverlerin beğenisine sunuldu. DVD'de "Meeting of A Thousand Suns" adıyla, albümün yapım sürecini anlatan 60 dakikalık belgesel yer alıyor.
