or… using social media for learning and teaching
How do we use social media for learning? The question is phrased as “we” because social media blurs the distinctions between “student” and “teacher”. Social media explicitly makes us all learners.
In this TeaLab we will explore social media tools and use in and beyond the curriculum through a few case studies and our own experiences to spark discussion.
We will consider
- Who uses social media
- What tools they use
- What the object/purpose of their use is
- What communities they use social media in
- What the “rules”, behaviours and norms of those communities might be
- And what different roles are there among social media users in those communities
- Finally we will consider what the outcomes might be for
We will also have a preview of the new Brookes Social Media Policy (need to be logged in to a Brookes Google mail account). And see also, Corporate Affairs Social Media Guidelines.
