Social Media and Institutional Leadership in UK Higher EducationSue Beckingham
This research project examines how senior leaders in UK higher education deploy social media to the benefit of their institutions, their staff and their students. As universities become increasingly digital institutions within complex distributed networks, we suggest it is vitally important for senior leaders to directly embrace social approaches to communication and engagement. Drawing on paradigms from other sectors and outside the UK, we begin the work by establishing the rationale for university leaders to communicate regularly, personally and responsively to support strategic change.
Specifically, we explore how ‘digital leadership’ through social media can:
promote institutional successes and strategies within and outside the University
enhance direct engagement with students, staff and other stakeholders
role model behaviours in relation to digital capabilities
Our work is underpinned by a data gathering exercises, mapping how Vice-Chancellors of all UK universities currently use social media, with specific focus on Twitter and LinkedIn. We have selected these channels because of their widespread use in prof4essional contexts. The quantitative data we provide will establish how regularly these senior leaders use social media and what reach they have with particular networks.
This will be complemented by a number of detailed case studies, looking at how individual Vice-Chancellors build their networks through disseminating interesting and valuable content. Qualitative analysis of the nature and tone of engagement employed by Vice-Chancellors will help illustrate to what extent they reveal individual personalities, humanising themselves, their roles and their examples of student engagement using social media, asking of the greater visibility and personalisation for senior institutional affiliation and belonging amongst the institution’s student body.

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.

Using the 5C Framework (Nerantzi and Beckingham 2014, 2015) as a lens, we will explore how social media can be used to connect, communicate, curate, collaborate and create, and in doing so learn how to:
develop a digital professional persona to share scholarly achievements
cultivate valued personal learning networks and co-learning communities
benefit from 'working (and learning) out loud'
find new approaches and practical examples of using social media
as co-learners share examples of effective practice and consider how these might be applied in your own contexts

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
