“I don’t think education is about
centralized instruction anymore; rather, it
is the process [of] establishing oneself as
a node in a broad network of distributed
creativity.”

![If institutions of learning are going to help
learners with the real challenges they face…
[they] will have to shift their focus from
imparting curriculum to supporting the
negotiation of productive identities through
landscapes of practice.”

Social Media for Scientists - University of Melbourne guest lecture May 2014
This document provides an overview of a lecture on using social media for scientists. The lecture includes two parts: mapping current social media use and how science is using social media. It discusses tools for curating and sharing information online, developing an identity as a digital scholar, and metrics for measuring impact beyond citations. Social media allows scientists to engage broader audiences, collaborate openly, crowdsource funding, and disseminate findings quickly. While challenging myths, the lecture argues social media's benefits outweigh costs for advancing research conversations and visibility in today's digital landscape.

People live theirlives and learn across multiple settings, and this holds true not only across the span of our lives but also across and within the institutions and communities they inhabit – even classrooms, for example. I take an approach that urges me to consider the significant overlap across these boundaries as people, tools, and practices travel through different and even contradictory contexts and activities.

It’s made me easy to discover for journalists and it’s helped me forged a rich array of connections with the broader community who have been the subject of my research. I’ve also found that, increasingly, journalists have read my blog posts or listened to my podcasts before they contact me and it hugely aids the subsequent dialogue.
