A social network is defined as a chain of
individuals and their personal connections.
Expanding one’s connections with other people is
a technique that can be used both for personal or
business reasons. Social networking applications
make use of the associations between individuals
to further facilitate the creation of new
connections with other people. This could be
used to meet new friends and connect with old
ones, as many people do on Facebook, or to
expand one’s professional connections through a
business network like LinkedIn.

PEDAGOGICAL PERSPECTIVES OF SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES IN EDUCATIONThiyagu K
Social networking services are increasingly being used by educators as teaching and learning tools that supplement traditional classroom environments as they provide new opportunities for enriching existing curriculum through creative, authentic and/or flexible non linear learning experiences. From chat rooms, discussion forums, blogs and wikis, services like Facebook, and/or virtual world’s like Second Life, social networking tools are being meaningfully added to curriculum. The use of social networking services in education has been shown to benefit education a number of ways by supporting social learning, constructivist teaching practices, authentic instruction, student centered learning, and on demand access to learning. More research needs to be conducted into the use of social networking services and other communicative Web 2.0 technologies in teaching and learning. This article explores the pedagogical usage of social networking site and features of social networking. This article also describes the challenges of opportunists to use the social networking sites in education.
Social media are computer-mediated technologies that facilitate the creation and sharing of information, ideas, career interests and other forms of expression via virtual communities and networks. The variety of stand-alone and built-in social media services currently available introduces challenges of definition
I have learnt a lot by using various Social Media tools. Blogs written by experts and wikis update me with the latest happenings in the e-learning world, while social bookmarking sites offer news, reviews, etc, and networking sites allows me to connect and collaborate with experts who are more than willing to share ideas, resources and experiences.
Social media tools have changed our lives for the better and made them much easier. What are your views on this? Share your thoughts on how social media tools have helped you in your respective fields.
Impact of social media on education.pdfInformation
There are many reasons why social media has had such an impact on education. Most importantly,
social media gives more people the opportunity to express themselves through writing and photography.
It also helps people stay connected with friends and family. When using social media,
it is very important to maintain personal privacy. Using an alias name instead of your real name
makes it hard to find your account later on. Another problem with social media is cyberbullying.
Cyberbullying is when someone uses social media to harass another person and cause trouble.
The harassment could be physical as well as mental. People who bully others usually lack
self-confidence.There are many reasons why social media has had such an impact on education. Most importantly,

What Can Social Media Aggregation Contribute To Teaching & LearningThomas Ho
This paper describes the role that aggregation of social media can contribute to teaching and to learning. With respect to teaching, assessment is enhanced because the aggregate stream of social media activity produces an artifact that exhibits what and how students are learning and discovering. With respect to learning, engagement is enhanced because the aggregate stream of social media activity encourages students to interact with each other by cooperating and by commenting on others’ learning and discovery.
Especially promising is the prospect for the course (and subsequent learning) to “continue” even after the semester ends and even for assessment data to be collected longitudinally.
The magazine is original and is about social media etiquette for undergraduates. It describes the general guideline of social media etiquette, compare and contrast different social media etiquette fucus and the impact of not following social media etiquette.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Social Media in Education
1. SOCIAL MEDIA IN
EDUCATION
The concept of social media
Social media, social networking and E-
learning
Social media and instruction
Channels of performing activities in social
media
Advantages and disadvantages of social
media in education
2. What is social media?
Social media is the interaction among
people in which they create, share or
exchange information and ideas in virtual
communities and networks. Social media
can also be said to be a group of Internet-
based applications that build on the
ideological and technological foundations
of internet that allows the creation and
exchange of user-generated contents.
3. Classification of social media
Social media technologies take on many
different forms including:
magazines
Internet forums
weblogs
social blogs
podcasts
4. Social media, social networking
and E-learning
Most often these terms are used interchangeably
by people but it is important to stress the point
that these three terms are very different from
one another in terms of nature and functions.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media is the interaction among
people in which they create, share or exchange
information and ideas in virtual communities and
networks. Social media can also be said to be a
group of Internet-based applications that build on
the ideological and technological foundations of
internet that allows the creation and exchange of
user-generated contents.
5. Social media differ from traditional or
industrial media in many ways, including
quality, reach frequency, usability, immediacy,
and permanence.According to Nielsen,
internet users continue to spend more time
with social media sites than any other type
of site.At the same time, the total time
spent on social media in the U.S. across PC
and mobile devices increased by 37 percent
to 121 billion minutes in July 2012 compared
to 88 billion minutes in July 2011.
6. SOCIAL NETWORKING
A social networking service is a platform
to build social networks or social relations
among people who, for example, share
interests, activities, backgrounds or real-life
connections.
Social networking is the hottest online trend
of the last few years. Not only do social
media sites provide a way to keep in contact
with friends, but they can also offer
opportunities for professional online
networking.
7. Advantages of social networking
Social networking offers many benefits some of the
benefits includes.
making it easier than ever to keep in contact with old
friends and colleagues.The professional networking
site LinkedIn even allows users to request
introductions to business people who are known to
their contacts.
The potential of this enhanced connectivity is huge;
whereas once you would be left sifting through
business cards after a networking event, trying to
remember details about each person, you can now
easily look up a connection’s credentials and business
interests on their social media profile.
8. Disadvantages of social networking
The primary disadvantage of social networking is
that most people do not know how to network
effectively.As a result, the few benefits they get
from their networking activity are not worth the
time invested.The best way to avoid being
disappointed in this way is to decide on a strategy
for using social sites, and stick to it. For example,
if you are going to useTwitter to draw attention
to exciting new content on your website, then
resist the temptation to waste time tweeting
about unrelated topics. Stay focused on what you
want to achieve and don’t let yourself get
distracted.
9. E- LEARNING
E-learning is the use of electronic media and
information and communication technologies (ICT) in
education. E-learning is broadly inclusive of all forms of
educational technology in learning and teaching. E-
learning is inclusive of, and is broadly synonymous with
multimedia learning, technology-enhanced learning
(TEL), computer-based instruction (CBI), computer-
based training (CBT), computer-assisted instruction or
computer-aided instruction (CAI), internet-based
training (IBT), web-based training (WBT), online
education, virtual education, virtual learning
environments (VLE) (which are also called learning
platforms), m-learning and digital educational
collaboration.These alternative names emphasize a
particular aspect, component or delivery method
10. SOCIAL MEDIA AND
INSTRUCTION
Social media as a concept has its own impact
on education both positively and negatively. In
early 2013, Steve Joordens, a professor at the
University of Toronto, encouraged the 1,900
students enrolled in his introductory psychology
course to add content to Wikipedia pages
featuring content that related to the course. Like
other educators, Joordens argued that the
assignment would not only strengthen the site’s
psychology-related content, but also provide an
opportunity for students to engage in critical
reflection about the negotiations involved in
collaborative knowledge production. Examples of
these social medias and education includes:
11. Facebook and classroom
It allows for both an asynchronous and synchronous,
open dialogue via a familiar and regularly accessed
medium, and supports the integration of multimodal
content such as student-created photographs and
video and URLs to other texts, in a platform that
many students are already familiar with.
Further, it allows students to ask more minor
questions that they might not otherwise feel
motivated to visit a professor in person during office
hours to ask.
It also allows students to manage their own privacy
settings, and often work with the privacy settings
they have already established as registered users.
12. Facebook is one alternative means for shyer
students to be able to voice their thoughts
in and outside of the classroom.
It allows students to collect their thoughts
and articulate them in writing before
committing to their expression.
Facebook can also aid students in self-
expression and encourage more frequent
student-and-instructor and student-and-
student communication
13. Twitter and classroom
Twitter, also, promotes social connections
among students. It can be used to enhance
communication building and critical thinking.
Domizi (2013) utilizedTwitter in a graduate
seminar requiring students to post weekly tweets
to extend classroom discussions. Students
reportedly usedTwitter to connect with content
and other students.
Additionally, students found it “to be useful
professionally and personally”They also reported
that students usedTwitter to get up-to-date news
and connect with professionals in their field.
14. YouTube and classroom
YouTube is the most frequently used social media
tool in the classroom.
Students can watch videos, answer questions, and
discuss content.Additionally, students can create
videos to share with others.
YouTube also improved students’ digital skills and
provided opportunity for peer learning and
problem solving.
Additionally, the students reported that the
videos helped them recall information and
visualize real world applications of course
concepts.
15. CHANNELS OF PERFORMING
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES ON
SOCIAL MEDIA
Channels of carrying out activities on social
medias online includes the following:
Google
Facebook
Twitter
Whatsapp
2go Etc.
16. GOOGLE
Founded: September 4 1998
Founder: Larry Page, Sergey Brin
Estimated users: 13.96 Billion active users
17. FACEBOOK
Founded: February 4 2004
Founder: Mark Zuckerberg, Eduado Savering,
Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and
Chris huges
Estimated users: 1.23 Billion active users
18. TWITTER
Founded: March 21 2006
Founder: Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Evans
Williams
Estimated user: 200 million active users
21. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN EDUCATION
Advantages
Extensive use of public social media sites that support
the creation, sharing and commenting of content, as
well as the co-creation of content, enables learners to
co-create and share their own content within their
own work in teams.
Extensive use of social networking sites like
Facebook,Twitter, LinkedIn, etc where individuals have
built a personal network of trusted friends, means
that they are using similar approaches to build
networks of trusted colleagues (both internally and
externally), as well as power team workspaces and
internal communities of practice.
22. Social Constructivism: Social media
provides an easily accessible tool
for helping students to work together to
create their own meaning in
academic subjects, social contexts, or
work environments.
Breadth of Knowledge: It is now easier
than ever to know (or find out)
something about almost anything in the
world through connected media.
23. disadvantages
Distraction: social media produces
momentary distraction of an isolated text
message, and the way in which social
media involvement provides an acceptable
diversion from intellectual pursuits.
Pressure to Conform: students also give
the main reasons behind their 24/7
connection is a fear of not keeping up
with peers or appearing “like a loser in
public, thereby lowering their self esteem
24. Social media engagement supports a culture of
avoidance which operates in direct opposition to
the idea that students need to take risks and fail
in their academic endeavors in order to become
successful innovators.
social media does promote a kind of intellectual
and social shallowness that could have long-term
negative consequences for learners. E.g.The
commonly used sets of social media channels
doesn’t encourage learners to express themselves
as it only provide chance for only 140 characters.
