Becoming a Digital Scholar using Social Media #UoRsocialmedia
Developing your academic online presence with social media
Workshop at the University of Reading, led by Sue Beckingham SFHEA, Senior Lecturer in Information Systems and LEAD Associate at Sheffield Hallam University, this workshop will provide an opportunity to learn about new approaches and practical examples of using social media in higher education; and as co-learners share examples of effective practice and consider how these might be applied in your own contexts. The session will also provide participants some time and space to network and potentially make new connections.
The workshop aims to provide participants with an opportunity to:
Gain a better understanding of how social media can be used in a scholarly context
Appreciate the value of developing a rich professional online presence
Learn about opportunities for social and open informal learning through social media
Appreciate five elements of ‘working out loud’ (Stepper 2015) and how these can be of value to both yourself and others
Using the 5C Framework (Nerantzi and Beckingham 2014, 2015) as a lens we will consider how social media can be used to connect, communicate, curate, collaborate and create. In doing so consider the value of:
Developing a digital professional persona to share scholarly achievements
Cultivating your own personal learning network and co-learning communities
Sharing learning journeys through working out loud
Programme
Tuesday 26 April 2016
10.45-11.00 Networking and registration
