Six social-media skills every leader needs | McKinsey & Company - 0 views

  • 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
       
      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
       
      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
    • Eric Telfer
       
      Value of emotional currency, EQ.

  • The six dimensions of social-media-literate leadership
    • Eric Telfer
       
      Re- leader as designer, steward, teacher.
  • instant communication
    • Eric Telfer
       
      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
       
      Required for class multimedia projects?
  • That unease soon vanished with practice
    • Eric Telfer
       
      As is the case with most switches.
  • Leveraging
    • Eric Telfer
       
      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
       
      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
       
      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
       
      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
       
      At school, who is giving us the time to invest in social media literacy for all?
  • agile

      able to change/adapt to emerging (educational) technologies.

    Nice descriptions of what we are trying to prepare our students for in the work of work, especially with respect to desirable leadership traits and responsibilities in the business world.

To Teach Digital Citizenship Effectively, Educators Say It's Time to Unblock Social Med... - 0 views

  • schools have an obligation to teach students how to use social media responsibly.
  • hen you are filtering out legitimate websites and some of the social media sites, you’re taking away the chance to build capacity for students to use them effectively and responsibly,”
  • f you remove the chance for those websites to be used in school, then where are we developing those responsible habits for our students? How can we have an impact on developing digital citizenship skills?”
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Social media is already a part of their frameworks as teens. They are all into it. If we block it, we have no chance to educate them on it
  • We run personalized learning over here, and a part of the norms our kids have created for themselves is listening one earbud in one earbud out, but still focusing on what our content is,
    • Wendy Chaffee
       
      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,
    • Wendy Chaffee
       
      a good point, but also needed, is teaching them how to use it appropriately

  • Clarify behaviors
    • Emily Wood
       
      Just like everything else you do the first 6 weeks of school. Do guided discover with the iPads and establish rules.
  • “Avoid focusing on apps…focus on what students can create using iPads
  • Instead, focus on projects that deepen reading and writing using blended media (e.g. video/audio)
  • One way to accomplish that includes changing the way you teach to present students with projects and problems that require collaboration, communication, and problem-solving.
    • Emily Wood
       
      PBL!
  • These are simple, powerful ways to engage students. Use them for everything to get students thinking and making their thinking visible. Looking for more ideas? When you are ready, explore Dr. Wesley Fryer’s iPad Media Camp, Playing with Media video collection, Greg Kulowiec’s app smashing concept, and Lisa Johnson’s (@techchef4u) website. Kathy Schrock has a few resources for you, too. When you’re ready to buy apps, let me know. Green screen is one area you need to investigate more.

Digital Literacy and Citizenship Is Part of Equitable Access | Common Sense Media - 0 views

  • 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.

      This is what hits home for me. We are not just preparing our kids for their future, we are giving them the skills to handle what is happening now.
