Are You On Facebook The Impact Of Facebook On Learner AutonomyCem Balçıkanlı
This document discusses the impact of Facebook on learner autonomy based on the presenter's observations and research. It first establishes the importance of learner-centered education and defines learner autonomy as the ability to take charge of one's own learning. It then discusses how social networking sites like Facebook have become integrated into students' daily routines and sense of community. Finally, it shares the presenter's observations on how their own experiences and those of their students learning a language have been influenced by participation on Facebook.
Thinking Outside the Binder: Online Portfolios for Professional Reviewbarritt
The document discusses using online portfolios for professional review and development. It argues that online portfolios can help cultivate technological literacy and expose students to new tools for classroom use. It also discusses how online portfolios support the development of "multiliteracies" by allowing students to negotiate diverse discourses. Features of online portfolios mentioned include documentation of student work through blogs, videos, and other media; tagging to indicate interrelationships; and options for public, private, or password-protected sharing. Overall, the document presents online portfolios as having advantages over physical binders by preserving artifacts digitally and improving accessibility, portability, and opportunities for engagement through social media.
This chapter examines the concept of multiliteracies and how it emerged in literacy programs and classrooms. It discusses Cazden and Gee's involvement in developing multiliteracies and analyzes Luke and Freebody's Four Resources model. The chapter also explores how multiliterary practices influence education and benefit students by requiring them to recognize different literacy qualities and practices.
The document discusses using social networking tools for English language learning. It reviews previous research on using online discussion boards and blogging to provide opportunities for authentic language practice and the development of literacy skills. The document also discusses how social networking allows for culturally neutral spaces for language negotiation and accommodates different learning styles.
This document provides references to resources on library-classroom collaboration, including books and articles. It lists 5 books owned by the Los Rios Libraries on topics such as information literacy collaborations, digital libraries for online teaching and learning, and relationships between teaching faculty and librarians. It also lists 3 articles from databases on studies of faculty-library collaboration, assessing academic librarian/faculty partnerships, and collaborating to meet the needs of at-risk students. The resources cited provide information on collaborations between libraries and classrooms.

Digital Interaction: Unraveling Student Voices through Collaborative Technolo...Casey McArdle
The document reports on a study examining student interactions and collaboration using different digital technologies. It investigated how students use the required Blackboard platform versus optional social media like Facebook and Twitter. Survey and interview results showed students see Blackboard as academic and Web 2.0 as social. Students did not want the two spaces combined. Observations found limited academic discussion on Blackboard but more of a mix of social and academic topics emerging on Facebook late in the semester. The study aims to better understand student interactions online and explore designing collaborative digital spaces.
KC Lee from the National University of Singapore will present a paper titled "English language learning in the world of multis: Multimedia, multimodal, multilateral, multiplatform" at the 1st National Conference on English, Englishes, and Englishing in multilingual and multimedia environments at the University of Santo Tomas, Philippines. The paper will discuss how English is learned in a world with multiple media, modes of communication, perspectives, and platforms, drawing on references that explore the role of blogs, social media, computers, and other technologies in language learning.
This document discusses incorporating intercultural collaboration assignments into writing classrooms. It addresses the contemporary writing context which is digital, collaborative, global, and translingual. It proposes using globally networked learning environments (GNLEs) which represent new visions of learning across boundaries. An example of a GNLE is described involving American and Hungarian students collaborating on blog posts, brochures, and surveys to increase their global literacy skills. The process involves students writing identity blogs, designing recruitment materials, and conducting usability research surveys in an intercultural exchange and team project format. Workshops are also used to discuss benefits, constraints, and support for such intercultural online collaboration projects.

Calling Home In The Global Village The Use Of Language Exchange Communities ...Cem Balçıkanlı
This document lists three topics for an interdisciplinary research conference: 1) using multimedia applications to aid language learning, 2) creating language exchange communities, and 3) applications of new technologies that allow learners to take a more active role in their education. It references a journal article discussing how technologies like self-access multimedia facilities can empower learner autonomy.
The document lists 14 researchers and the key contributions or findings of their work relating to social factors that influence education. Stephen Ball (2003) interviewed parents about how market forces affected school choices. Basil Bernstein (1961) identified two speech codes used by different social classes. Maud Blair (2001) researched the overrepresentation of black boys in school exclusions.
The document provides biographical information about an individual who had experiences living and studying in multiple countries from a young age. It describes periods spent in Slovakia, England, the United States, France, and Ghana for education and volunteer purposes. It also references concepts like third culture kids and includes statistics about traits common to those with globally mobile upbringings.
1. The document is a list of 36 references related to multiliteracies and Web 2.0.
2. The references cover topics like how Web 2.0 tools can support new literacies, participatory learning, and digital literacy skills.
3. Many of the references also discuss the implications of Web 2.0 and new literacies for education, including how they influence student learning and teaching practices.
This document summarizes research on multimodal pedagogies - teaching approaches that incorporate multiple modes such as images, sounds, and words. The researchers studied how incorporating music, blogging, photography, filmmaking and other digital tools engaged students. They found these methods helped build literacy and creative skills. One example discussed having students act as journalists, using technology to explore issues important to them and share their perspectives through various media. The researchers conclude multimodal pedagogies can effectively connect with students' interests and digital literacy skills. Educators should consider how to bring these approaches into different classroom settings.
This document defines key terms related to collaborative learning, computer-mediated communication, and computer-mediated collaborative learning. It outlines research on CMCL in general education and language education. This research found that CMCL can increase participation, foster interaction, and support the synthesis of information. However, more comprehensive studies are needed that combine different CMC modes and compare CMCL to face-to-face learning.
This document outlines plans for a proposed multimodal composition course at a mid-sized Midwestern university. The course would integrate traditional print literacies with new technology-based literacies and address issues of rhetoric, social implications of technology, and making literacy practices more visible. It would be organized in three units around blogs, wikis, and visual rhetoric. The goal is for the course to bridge academic and new media discourses, develop multiple literacies, and critique the social aspects of digital technologies.
Developing Multicultural Awareness Through English (slideshare)Achilleas Kostoulas
Paper presented at the Arts and Education: Creative Ways into Languages International Conference, hosted by the University of Athens (May 2011). Cultural input in TESOL courseware is critically reviewed and suggestions are made for fostering Multicultural Awareness Through English (MATE)
The document discusses using comic book formatted graded readers as an extensive reading resource for ESL/EFL students. It argues that comic books can benefit reading programs by intrinsically motivating students and aiding cognition through their use of visuals. While comics were once a respected art form, they became stigmatized in the 1950s as causing juvenile delinquency. However, research shows comics can improve reading habits. By utilizing visuals, comics can strengthen comprehension and memory according to theories like dual coding. When text and images are well integrated, comic books provide opportunities for mental model construction. The document recommends stakeholders recognize these benefits to make comic book readers more available.

The document discusses the results of a study on the effects of a new drug on memory and cognitive function in older adults. The double-blind study involved 100 participants aged 65-80 who were given either the drug or a placebo daily for 6 months. Results showed those given the drug performed significantly better on memory and problem-solving tests at the end of the study compared to the placebo group, suggesting the drug may help slow cognitive decline in older adults.
The document discusses a project to renew Spring Garden Street in Philadelphia. It will involve creating a greenway along the wide street to manage stormwater and address environmental challenges while improving quality of life. Community workshops will gather input on conceptual designs that could include median or curbside green spaces, drawing from precedents in other cities. The project aims to revitalize the area through partnerships and public participation.
Uncle Sam was recruiting soldiers for the army before US entry into the war. Allied soldiers in the trenches faced terrible conditions where they had to sleep standing up or leaning against walls. The narrator introduces the characters in a photograph from the trenches - the Corporal in the middle, Young Jimmy to his left, and Old Timer to his right. After disabling enemy artillery in one battle, a British tank charged across plains to the enemy trench. When pushed back by the enemy, more soldiers were found protecting a supply line for trains. Young Jimmy was exhausted and less excited about war after experiencing his first real battle and death. Soldiers with trench foot had difficulty walking without assistance due to infected feet. A photo was taken of the narrator
The document discusses how currently many people live close to amenities like grocery stores and parks but still drive to them. Residents want to be able to more easily walk or bike to these destinations in the future. Parks and recreation amenities were identified as being highly important to residents after a town center.
This is a small information presentation produced to highlight findings from a small-scale study for my MA in New Literacies at the University of Sheffield.
The research focuses on children's perceptions of literacy after following the National Literacy Strategy. It also explores whether children's perceptions match with those of their teacher.

Este documento describe las interjecciones, palabras que funcionan como oraciones completas y expresan sentimientos como admiración, alarma o alegría. Explica que hay interjecciones propias formadas por una sola palabra entre signos de admiración o interrogación, e interjecciones impropias que son sustantivos, verbos o adverbios usados ocasionalmente como interjecciones. Además, señala que las interjecciones suelen usarse de forma aislada al inicio de una oración entre paréntesis.
This project is a urban design framework proposal for a site in the district of Usme in the city of Bogota, Colombia. It is an environmental analysis, critique of the purposed plan, and recommendation for a new plan that is framed by environment and ecological interventions.
The document discusses the use of social media and peer-to-peer learning. It covers topics like personal learning networks, social learning environments, and how students are using social media sites like Facebook for both social and academic purposes. It also examines challenges around privacy, ethics and the "participation gap" in digital learning environments.
This document discusses strategies for establishing a positive classroom community that is welcoming and supportive of all students. It recommends that teachers get to know their students, promote social interactions, and use reflective lesson planning to meet diverse needs. The Quantum Learning model is highlighted as an approach that has led to statistically significant academic gains and increased student motivation. Key aspects of Quantum Learning include a positive classroom environment, engaging lessons, and building relationships between teachers and students.
The document discusses 5 influences of globalization on secondary education students ranked from most to least influential:
1. Popular culture, which sees advertisers using pop culture connections to promote brands in schools.
2. Social media and the internet, which is shaping global communities and could lead to worldwide classrooms.
3. Multiculturalism, which globalization has forced educators to embrace and could lead to a global oneness.
4. The global community, for which students have less sense of traditional community support systems.
5. The state, which may have the greatest impact on educators as local autonomy is lost over educational decisions.
Talkin bout a Revoluition: New Literacies, New PracticesDrJoolz
1. The document discusses the evolution of the concept of literacy from traditional definitions focused on functional skills to broader definitions encompassing critical thinking and social practices in different contexts.
2. New definitions of literacy consider it as social practice embedded in cultural and community contexts using various modalities beyond just printed text.
3. Emerging technologies and digital media have created new forms of literacy practices described as new literacies that are more collaborative, participatory, and distributed across networks.
Influence of social networking sites on lifestyles, acculturation and self es...Alexander Decker
This document discusses how social networking sites influence the lifestyles, acculturation, and self-esteem of university students in Ondo State, Nigeria. It finds that social networking has deeply impacted student life by affecting their lifestyles and how they socialize and adapt to the university culture. Both positive and negative effects were found. The document recommends that students use social networking as an educational tool to help them achieve university goals and develop new skills, while also maintaining their integrity and commitment to the university.
Academics in Social Media: Acts of Personal Defiance and Sharing ( at AECT 2013)George Veletsianos
The ways that emerging technologies and social media are used and experienced by researchers and educators are poorly understood and inadequately researched. The goal of this study was to examine the online practices of individual scholars using ethnographic data collection and qualitative data analysis methods. In this presentation I report two findings: Academics' social media use to (a) defy and circumvent academic publishing, and (b) share intimate details of one’s life.
The case for continuing education, community-based research and engaged scholarship as a means to provide education for the public good in Canada and elsewhere
The document discusses the importance of multiliteracies in education. It provides annotations summarizing several sources that advocate for teaching students multiple literacy skills to succeed in today's digital world. These include the ability to understand, critique, and create using a variety of multimedia texts. The sources argue this prepares students for real-life problem solving and participation in society. Effective teaching approaches like the four resources model can help incorporate multiliteracies into lesson planning and learning environments.
Sociological Interaction And Social InteractionSheila Guy
The document discusses the importance of social interaction. It states that social interaction is how people communicate and act with each other in social structures like families and organizations. Emotions, language, and humor are important aspects of social interaction. Emotions are socially constructed and guide people's behavior in relation to others. Language weaves people into culture and communicates deeper meanings. Humor also plays an important role in everyday life.

The document discusses the importance of multiliteracy education in modern society. It provides annotations summarizing several sources that advocate for teaching students multiple literacy skills to prepare them for an increasingly digital world. These include the ability to understand, critique, and create with various media and technologies. The sources argue this approach helps shape students into well-rounded citizens who can participate fully in public life and the workforce. A synthesis concludes that multiliteracy education helps design fulfilled futures for students by giving them diverse literacy knowledge and insights into real-world scenarios through hands-on learning experiences.
This document contains an assignment prompt for a student asking them to reflect on what they learned about literacies in the 21st century, how their views on technology in teaching have changed, and their ICT experience. It provides the student ID and date. The prompt contains 3 questions for the student to answer in their response.
The document is a literature review by student Sue Caudery containing summaries of 14 sources on the topic of multiliteracies and the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in early childhood education. A common theme across the sources is that as technology and multimodal texts are increasingly part of children's lives, early childhood educators must provide multiliterate learning environments that incorporate ICTs and accommodate students' diverse experiences and backgrounds. Many authors believe immersing young children in problem-solving activities using ICTs can promote independent thinking skills.
Scholars across many disciplines have grappled with questions of what it means for a person to
be and interact online. Who are we when we go online? How do others know we are there and
how do they perceive us? Within the context of online learning, scholarly questions tend to
reflect more specific concerns focused on how well people can learn in a setting limited to
mediated interactions lacking various communication cues. For example, how can a teacher and
students come to know each other if they cannot see each other? How can they effectively
understand and communicate with each other if they are separated by space and, in many
instances, time? These concerns are related to issues of social presence and identity, both of
which are complex, multi-faceted, closely interrelated constructs.
Learning Through Social Networking Sites: The Critical Role of the Teacherwanzahirah
This study examined how the role of the teacher influences student behavior and learning when using social networking sites (SNS) for educational purposes. Two classes completed identical modules on an SNS. Student contributions were analyzed using Bloom's taxonomy to measure cognitive thinking. The key findings were:
1) There is a tradeoff between social vs learning contributions on SNS.
2) SNS have potential to enhance student motivation and digital literacy but the teacher's role is critical.
3) Effective teacher implementation through positive relationships, establishing a learning attitude, and online presence was associated with positive outcomes, while limitations could inhibit success.

This document discusses social media and how it has changed communication for students and higher education professionals. It notes that while some educators have embraced social media to engage students, others struggle to adapt to students who are constantly connected digitally. To best engage and develop students, the document argues that understanding students' social media preferences is key. It provides an overview of popular social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube and how students currently use them to communicate and expect to connect with their campus.
The document discusses the pros and cons of using social media in education. Key arguments against include exposing students to cyberbullying, predators, and privacy issues. Some students may also be distracted by social media and spend less time studying. However, advocates argue that social media prepares students for today's technology-focused world and can engage students more in learning through online collaboration. The document recommends educators take a balanced approach, using social media cautiously, such as a history teacher who had shy students participate more through Twitter discussions.

New Visual Social Media for the Higher Education ClassroomRochell McWhorter
Authors: Julie A. Delello and Rochell R McWhorter
This chapter examines how next-generation visual social platforms motivate students to capture authentic evidence of their learning and achievements, publish digital artifacts, and share content across visual social media. Educators are facing the immediate task of integrating social media into their current practice to meet the needs of the twenty-first century learner. Using a case study, this chapter highlights through empirical work how nascent visual social media platforms such as Pinterest are being utilized in the college classroom and concludes with projections on ways visual networking platforms will transform traditional models of education.
