READINGS & ONLINE DISCUSSION
“Facilitating Learning with Social Media”
NEW! I enjoyed reading your initial post for this online week. My responses on them are in the W10 Discussion forum.
REMINDER: PREPARE TO SHARE UPDATE FROM SOCIAL MEDIA ACTIVITY!
- Explore your chosen social media (SM) (i.e., ResearchGate, Flipgrid, Pinterest).
- What makes your choice a “social media”?
- As you explore your SM, think about its affordances for learning or teaching or academia.
- What ideas from class/readings resonate for you in your space, if any?
- What constitutes being ‘literate’ in your chosen SM space?
- How might you facilitate learning with your chosen social media as the instructor?
- Reflection #1on these and other questions done in class on Monday, November 23
Please be ready to share about your space: (1) What is it and what makes it a social media?; (2) One idea from the readings that is demonstrated or contradicted or otherwise resonates for you in your space; (3) As a teacher, what are your practical recommendations for using it in education (or not) and why?
