social media & student activism
Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education

Activism derives from issues and
social forces Social media accelerates and expands movements What happens when a leaderless movement succeeds? Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education

Social media in student activist
movements… Removes and lessens barriers Serves as a tool for organizing and mobilizingAdam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education

Social media in student activist
movements… Serves as a conduit for information dissemination and consumption Creates a “common language” Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education

clicktivism go beyond How do
we define “meaningful” participation? Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education

social media and civic engagement…
Allows fast, customized information gathering Facilitates information sharing Drives civic learning and organization Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education

but it also… Lead to
an avoidance of civil debate Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education Create an intimidating environment for early-stage development

? Should we adapt? Can
we adapt? Adam Gismondi, Ph.D. @AdamGismondi / @TuftsIDHE Institute for Democracy & Higher Education Howdoesour“traditional”model ofRegistered/Recognized StudentOrganizationsfitwith modernmovements? Doesthe“traditional”modelfit? Isthatimportant? How might these new tools for activism interact with typical structures within Student Affairs?

Digitized Development
@paulgordonbrown@paulgordonbrown

Digitized Development @paulgordonbrown is the
underlying developmental processes that inform how we understand ourselves and our behavior in digital spaces. Digitized development can carry unique properties from offline development. @paulgordonbrown

It’s A Psychological Process!

Digitized Development

MarciaBaxterMagolda’s
TheoryofSelf-Authorship

Student explores and experiments openly
with social media. This is strongly influenced by authorities (parents/guardians) through access and peers through peer culture. Student does not understand how online and offline interactions can impact each other or possess a sophisticated understanding of context. Student makes conscious choices about social media usage and how it fits into life desires, outlook, and goals. Student realizes that one’s online life requires constant renegotiation as one’s goals, needs, contexts, and circumstances change. @paulgordonbrown
