  • hopkinsdavid David Hopkins , Learning Technologist at The Business School, Bournemouth University Thanks NightOwl - until an Institution's VLE, CMS or PLE (or whatever it has or calls it) has the capability of providing all the tools the students 'might' want, or we 'might' want to use, then we are always going to face this dilema - do we restrict ourselves and the tools we use in order to fit a system that is inadequate, or do we branch out and ask the students to enrol in systems that are external to the Institution's internal (and safe?) systems? 1 year ago Reply

  • AnotherNightOwl Bournemouth University at Bournemouth University I like the opportunities social networks such as Twitter offer to educators and have started incorporating LinkedIn in the activities for our Business and Management students.
    I am still searching for acceptable justification as to why we will be enforcing the registration to such public networks to the students. There might be the occasional student who would have taken an informed decision not to join these online communities and this person will either be disadvantaged by not being able to take part in the activities, or they will have to join the network against their will if they are to benefit from the sessions. There is a notional threat related to the security of the information submitted to open access social networks, which requires any of these activities to be preceded by skills development sessions focused on etiquette for online behaviour and information security. Institutional learning environments offer some peace of mind in this aspect, but the tools they offer are often years behind in terms of functionality and user friendliness.
    It seems that we as educators have a dilemma to resole: functionality and future-facing activities vs. the rights of the individual (esp the Data Protection Act).
    Your 'don't panic' reassurance made me panic :-)
