"A fabulous new infographic spells out exactly how undergraduate students are using technology, what they prefer, and how they want teachers to use tech. In other words, this infographic is beyond useful and worth passing around to your colleagues. Some of the stats might surprise you. I was personally surprised by the fact that more than half of students wanted their teachers to communicate more using face-to-face methods (as opposed to a digital manner). What surprises you?"

"So what's Twitter actually like? how many tweets are sent in a single day? How many tweets are sent per second? How fast is it growing? These are all useful questions as you try to ascertain whether to join the service … or if Twitter will be around for another few years. While I have no idea about the answer to the last question, I know the answers to the first few thanks to this helpful infographic that details some interesting Twitter stats you should know about."

Not without pride, we are happy to notice that most of the bloggers using Foter.com attribute CC photos properly, which is greatly facilitated by our "ready to paste" attribution info. Every time they intend to use a searched image, all they need to do is copy the image and the accompanying attribution details into their blogs.

Most is not enough, though. People often find CC photos on various sites and wonder how to attribute them. In order to help you, our team prepared a comprehensive infographic that reflects interesting research findings, gives details of Creative Commons licenses and illustrates how to properly attribute CC photos.

We do hope it will contribute to the overall quality of posted materials and promote respect for copyright owners.

Later this week, we're going to have a more in-depth look at the characteristics of digital citizenship, but the infographic below I ran across on educatorstechnology.com last week takes a more student-friendly approach by defining digital citizenship in terms of its actions and habits: using, sifting, mastering, creating-the literal actions that ultimately define the tone of a student's interactions with their digital environments.

This makes it useful not just as a visual for teacher understanding, but for students to discuss, internalize, and apply themselves. In fact, hanging it in the classroom, computer labs, media centers, and other highly-visible places might make sense as well: the rules of the world of digital networks and social media
