Doctors Should Use Social Media, but Carefully, Lawyers Say - ABANow - ABA Media Relations & Communication Services - 0 views

  • June 17, 2011 Doctors Should Use Social Media, but Carefully, Lawyers Say By Rabiah Alicia BurksAmerican Bar Association News ServiceJune 17, 2011 CHICAGO
  • Doctors can add some new tools to their practices: telemedicine – which allows doctors to diagnose patients and prescribe medication online, and social media, which allows them to connect with their patients in new ways. Though there are benefits to using social media and telemedicine to serve patients, physicians should know about the legal issues involved and exercise caution when using the new tools. Attorneys should also help healthcare facilities create policies that will help them to avoid legal risks, said Nanette Elster, attorney at Spence & Elster, P.C. in Chicago.

    "Web 2.0" has become a catch-all buzzword that people use to describe a wide range of online activities and applications, some of which the Pew Internet & American Life Project has been tracking for years. As researchers, we instinctively reach for our spreadsheets to see if there is evidence to inform the hype about any online trend. What follows is a short history of the phrase, along with some data to help frame the discussion.

    Very useful videos, some long and some shorter, to help build lessons around or to supplement a lesson one has already created. TED Talks is useful as well, but this education version of it offers more potential for use in a class.

    Excellent FREE site for math and sciences. All grade levels. Short video clips using a blackboard with verbal direction. Great depth of content available. Would be helpful to post on course site, saving you from creating the videos.

5 Ways to Use Snapchat as A Teaching and Learning Tool in Higher Education - 2 views

    I never thought Snapchat would work in a classroom setting. I think it's time for me to stop being too old school and meet my students in the middle and allow them to enjoy my messages in whatever reasonable way that is necessary.

Synchronous learning - Wikipedia - 1 views

  •  
    #TT1921 - I got a better insight into synchronous interaction though this article. I think it is worth reading. Synchronous learning refers to a learning event in which a group of students are engaging in learning at the same time. Before learning, technology allowed for synchronous learning environments, most online education took place through asynchronous learning methods. Since synchronous tools that can be used for education have become available, many people are turning to them as a way to help decrease the challenges associated with distance that occurs in online education.

Social Media and Online Learning: Trends that Help Teach - 1 views

  •  
    This article describes the use of social media as a bridge between students, teachers, and the online course. Many students are currently using social media such as Facebook and Twitter. The challenge for instructors is to learn how to leverage that as as an opportunity to create value for the student, the course, and for the instructor. The growing trend of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is commonplace among many campuses and it is now becoming common for institutions to require students to supply their own technology tools.

    A good synopsis of 20 Web 2.0 tools that can complement teaching.

  •  
    Online tools and resources have made it easier for teachers to instruct students, and for students to collaborate with those teachers and with other students and parents. These "Web 2.0" teaching tools aren't magical, but they may seem to defy definition at times since they save time, help you to stay organized, and often take up little space on a computer.
