Using social media to support learning in higher educationSue Beckingham
My keynote presentation considers how social media and digital technologies can be utilised effectively to enhance both informal and formal learning. Drawing upon the 5C Framework (Nerantzi and Beckingham 2014) I will share examples of how social media is used to connect, communicate, curate, collaborate and create; and through a student-staff partnership called ‘SMASH’ (Social Media for Academic Studies at Hallam) how with my students we have explored how social media can be used for ‘learning activities’ within and beyond the classroom, to ‘organise learning’ using relevant social media tools to curate and organise information, and the importance of ‘showcasing learning’ to enable students to openly share outcomes and projects.

Do alumni from your college have a way to connect? Are there guidelines in place for social media? This presentation shares insight on how many colleges are connection through social networks. For more insight, www.pickshovelmarketing.com
Social media is an increasingly important part of work practices in higher education providing opportunities for promoting academic work, networking, and learning. However, alongside
opportunities, it poses challenges about how to engage and represent yourself online. This workshop asks about your use of social media and presents some ideas on engaging with social media.

Presentation given at FITSI at UNH in June 2010 on the varying role of social media in education. Followed by a panel that included several teachers, the IT department and the Assistant Dean, and later by a social media roundtable on guidelines and policies. It was a great day of learning to an attentive crowd.
Note: In 2010 we changed the name of our company from Uptown Uncorked to Magnitude Media to better reflect the variety of clients we serve.

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 and Education
Class Objectives
• To provide an overview of the use of social media in educational institutions
• To explore how social media is used to advance education
Introduction
The internet has opened up spaces for individuals from different parts of the world,
generations, class, gender and race to gain access to higher education. These forms
of “borderless” learning platforms allow professors to facilitate linear interactions
with students as students take charge of their learning by posing questions and
posting content virtually. The popularity of online courses is demonstrated by a
study conducted by the learningSloan Foundation study consisting of more than
2,500 colleges and universities. The study findings indicated that online enrolments
were growing substantially faster than overall higher education enrolment, and the
17% growth rate in online enrolments far exceeds the 1.2% growth rate in the
overall higher education population (Allen & Seaman, 2010, cited in LeNoue, Hall,
Eighmy, 2011, pp. 4-5). Allen and Seaman classified an online course as one in which
more than 80% of content is delivered online and reported that over 4.6 million
students were taking such courses during the fall 2008 term (p.5). Clearly, online
courses are becoming a preferred means of learning mainly because of their
convenience—students are able to navigate, full time employment, family
responsibilities and other commitments. Many online instructional settings utilize
content management systems that allow for a two way communication between
students and the professor. The forums deviate from lecture structures and
professors in the online context as seen as facilitators of knowledge encouraging
active and experiential learning and teamwork to enhance cooperation and
collaboration. Would you categorize the online classes provided by UCW as a social
media forum?
Beyond online classrooms, universities use social media mainly for marketing,
communication and alumni relations. Universities now combine the use of social
media with their own homepages as a recruitment tools (For example, last year
UCW’s homepage provided access to Facebook, Twitter and YouTube). Universities
are also using social media to reach out to their alumni. A 2012 survey by the
Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (an association of university
and college professionals in development, alumni affairs and communications)
shows that 83 percent of U.S. colleges and universities are using social media to
engage alumni, with 96 percent on Facebook, 80 percent on Twitter, 73 percent on
YouTube, and 68 percent on LinkedIn (Frank, 2013). These statistics give an
illustration of how social media are used for communication between universities
and the public.

This presentation provides a briefing on how to upload submissions and documents in Google Classroom. It was prepared as part of an orientation for new Sainik School in-service teacher trainees. As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

11. With a digital presence
Students can easily contact us.
Students become aware of our areas of expertise.
We increase our visibility to the new
administration and other GMU units.
We are more likely to establish contacts with
colleagues from other universities.
We can provide a centralized access to resources.
We give a response to new trends in Higher
Education (technology-enhanced
teaching, service and communication)
12. New trends… maybe not that new
Students are more and more demanding in terms of
online communication with their teachers.
Students are getting used to other ways of sharing and
getting knowledge.
Students are increasingly looking at the Internet for
information about their teachers:

20. Ideas for social media integration
Use technology to work more effectively
Presenting lectures
Enhancing communication with students
Managing and updating teaching materials
Helping students succeed in class.
Use technology for professional
advancement.
Use technology to support institutional
growth.
21. Student challenges
Lack of academic and personal preparedness.
Financial obstacles.
Wrong expectations about course/major/university.
Colleges often do not deliver the type of education
students need/expect.
Lack of flexibility from the college side.
Scheduling conflicts.
Changes in family or job circumstances.
22. Hints
Prepare informational materials and study
guides accessible to all students which
address most frequent challenges but
remember that a conversation may be more
productive than a brochure. Conversations
also happen online.
Monitor student progress by other means
(surveys, blogs, etc.) in addition to grades.
Follow-up.
23. Professional Advancement
Collaborate with professionals all over
the world.
Share teaching and research materials
with other professionals in your field.
Get invitations to conferences.
Keep up with professional development
opportunities.
24. Institutional Growth
Provide opportunities for open and honest
discussion about the role of higher education
in the society, and how students’
expectations compare to those of professors
and administrators.
Report clearly the pro´s and cons
encountered in your courses so other
instructors can learn from your experience.
Participate in the institutional debate
knowing what social media integration
requires from faculty and students.
25. In conclusion
There is a pressure from students to communicate
with their teachers in a different way.
Administrators also wants us to increase the use of
technology in teaching, scholarship and service.
Having a digital presence may help university
professors do their work better at these three levels.
Using social media, as any other type of
technology, has to be done within a context and
with a clear goal in mind.
