Social Media leadership skills PLN

  • here’s a mismatch between the logic of participatory media and the still-reigning 20th-century model of management and organizations, with its emphasis on linear processes and control. Social media encourages horizontal collaboration
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      Corporate culture traditional leadership models still based on the ideals of industrialism- not unlike public education in the US. We need more horizontal classrooms.
  • The dynamics of social media amplify the need for qualities that have long been a staple of effective leadership
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      You don't need to throw out the baby with the bath water with social media and traditional leadership traits. 
  • Leaders need to excel at cocreation and collaboration—the currencies of the social-media world

      Re- leader as designer, steward, teacher.
  • instant communication
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      Not always a desirable attribute- instant communication can equal misinformation and inaccuracies. Take 24-7 news. Misinformation is often disseminated because of the pressure to get the information out quickly, rather than accurately. 
  • ncorporate video streams into their blogs
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      Required for class multimedia projects?
  • That unease soon vanished with practice
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      As is the case with most switches.
  • Leveraging
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      I think that this is one of social media's greatest asset. 
  • Equally important is the skill of creating and sustaining a body of social followers who help to spread and reinforce the message.
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      Value of PLNs as leaders in tech integration.
  • n traditional corporate communications, consumption is a mostly passive act: you are pretty much left alone to make sense of messages and to assess their authenticity and credibility. In the social-media realm, information gets shared and commented on within seconds
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      Good for efficient leverage, but lends itself to "knee-jerk" reactions. This will cut down on analysis paralysis, though. 
  • engage more closely with stakeholders
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      Parents about classroom events, assignments, projects, papers etc...
  • To achieve this goal, leaders must become tutors and strategic orchestrators of all social-media activities within their control
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      At school, who is giving us the time to invest in social media literacy for all?
  • agile
    • Eric Telfer
      Eric Telfer on 16 Jul 13
       
      able to change/adapt to emerging (educational) technologies.

    By blocking social media schools are also blocking the opportunity: 1) to teach students about the inventive and powerful ways communities around the world are using social media 2) for students and teachers to experience the educational potential of social media together 3) for students to distribute their work with the larger world 4) for students to reimagine their creative and civic identities in the age of networked media

      Teaching/using social media and digital citizenship to tie in personal learning... research, discuss and report out.. this can be SO powerful!
  • When I was growing up, I had a textbook, and we still got off track. The medium doesn’t change what a middle-schooler does or doesn’t do. We have to be ready as educators to redirect as needed and support students throughout the learning process,

  • Ideally, I foresee a future where our students live in a world where they think before they post something problematic; a world where school administrators know how to talk with students about social media challenges; a world where families feel comfortable flagging distressing incidents online; and a world where we are role-modeling how we should be navigating these spaces together.

  • Consider this: anyone, complete strangers included, can tell a great deal about you via your digital footprint; that is, the trail you leave behind when you share updates, post pictures or check into places via social media. It's very likely you're broadcasting what you look like, where you work, where you've been, who you know, what you like to do, and of course, your opinions on a variety of topics.
  • I've seen business owners and personal contacts tarnish their reputations with a few words or a few clicks, not fully realizing the power of the digital world we now live in.
  • Every picture you post, every status or page you like, and every update you share is essentially announcing to the world who you are, permanently.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • any companies, including my own, use search engines and social media to dig up information about potential candidates. What are we looking for? We're hunting down information to potentially validate your resume, to find out if you walk your talk and to learn more about you, as a person.

    • nickyforest
      nickyforest on 11 Feb 18
       
      Research from a 3rd grader was done using only Wikipedia and that was not cited on her research project.
  • My concern was not just about the credibility of using Wikipedia for academic purposes. The reading level was too advanced for a typical third-grader. Researchers (Anderson, 2012) have found the overall readability of numerous Wikipedia articles too difficult for many readers.

      nickyforest on 11 Feb 18
       
      Wikipedia is not written at a 3rd grade level, or for any elementary student for that matter.
  • How is the research process introduced to elementary students, particularly for using the internet? Are learners provided an age-appropriate online tutorial? Is there a standards document indicating skills that students should be developing in elementary grades for using technology to conduct research?  What guidelines/templates are students provided for developing their projects? Are they provided a checklist/rubric for how projects would be graded? Who sees their projects?  How do you make parents aware that their children will be doing internet research and that their children’s “online safety” has been considered?

  • You can integrate digital skills into daily life. If you can shop online, you can teach online. You have a balanced attitude. Digital isn’t everything. You’re a teacher, not a techie. You’re open to using and trying new stuff. You can find digital tools, so can your kids. What matters is if they work. You’re a digital communicator. You can use email and social media with ease. You know the difference between things like a tweet and a DM. You know how to do a digital assessment. You’re a sound judge of the quality of information, apps, and tools. You understand and respect privacy. You treat personal data with the respect it deserves. You’re a digital citizen. You know how to behave online appropriately, legally, and in socially responsible ways. And you’ll pass it on to your pupils.
