    Daniel,

    Yes, slide 29 (as well as all of the slides with the black background and white lettering) is a quote from a student who took the survey.

    Just to be sure - slide 29 quotes one of the students who had taken the survey?

    Anne Marie,

    Thanks for the comments & questions. There are definitely challenges with integrating these types (or any type) of technology into education. Those challenges actually serve to reinforce why we are trying to collect this information about student perceptions and preferences and also why we will likely approach it with a blended model.

    I agree that we need to use/understand to implement them...a conversation a few of us had at Med 2.0 spoke to this as it revolved around how many of us actually started with the ZX81/Timex Sinclair 1000 (circa 1980) and then moved onto the BBS online, etc.

    While I am a bit of a tech enthusiast, I won’t use something (or try it in class) if it doesn’t add value/perspective , etc. So what we have done in this project is identify what the students’ baseline is with these Web 2.0 tools and solicited specifically what they want to see (and don’t want to see) used in their education.

    The other piece (not really covered in this 15 min presentation) is the thematic analysis of the ~600 comments the students provided which looks to be particularly helpful in identifying which tools/apps to try and to avoid. Once that is complete, my plan is to put research into practice and integrate select tools (with an assessment piece, of course) as well as to continue to share the results with other interested academicians/educators.

    I hope that answers your questions - other than the one about the blog that I conspicuously avoided :)

    Thanks for posting. So what are we to do? Impressive level of resistance to social networking/media in education. But look how few NINGs with ’grown-ups’ fail. Look at how few of those who are involved in education use these tools. My personal feeling is that we need to develop our own skillsets before we can confidently introduce to students.
    Although I love social media I use ot to learn and network about medical education, rather than to find answers to clinical queries.
    Horses for courses!
    What are your thoughts now? How are you moving forward?And how come you don’t have a blog?

  35. CONCLUSIONS
  36. “Web 2.0 and social media are the information and social networking overload…the fact that there are some content inconsistencies and the lack of good filters creates problems finding the best information….More security should be available in web 2.0….Also, anonymity can translate into controversies and hate.”
  37. “Web 2.0 helps me be and stay connected with my classmates and teachers outside of the classroom. If it wasn't for Web 2.0, I would not have been able to build friendships with my classmates in different sites.With facebook…I am able to talk to my classmates outside of class about concepts taught in class.”
  38. Edumorphology - Michael Staton
    The Truth is Somewhere in Between
