This document discusses potential research into how students use Web 2.0 tools and how that relates to social learning theories. It outlines how social networking, user-created content, and information gathering are key aspects of Web 2.0 and students. The proposed research question is how students' use of Web 2.0 tools ties into existing knowledge about social learning theories. Interviews, focus groups, and analyzing tool usage are suggested methodologies, with anticipated risks being getting a range student perspectives and the changing nature of Web 2.0 tools.
Effects of Face-to-Face and Online Information Literacy InstructionSila Lott
This study evaluated the effectiveness of face-to-face and online information literacy instruction for improving community college students' web evaluation skills. 80 students from Tallahassee Community College participated in a between-groups pre-test/post-test design where they received either a treatment of information literacy instruction or a control with no instruction. Students completed pre- and post-tests measuring their web evaluation skills and confidence using an ABCD framework. The results will help determine if information literacy instruction improves skills and if one format is more effective than the other.
Social Media: Taking It to the Next LevelCindy Royal
This document discusses best practices for using social media in higher education. It recommends that universities maintain a strong website and blog while being authentic and transparent on social media. It encourages engagement with students and alumni through platforms like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. The document also provides tips on developing social media strategies, guidelines, measuring effectiveness and integrating different social media platforms.
The document discusses challenges of integrating technology into classrooms and provides suggestions to address those challenges. It notes trends in student work like over reliance on copying and pasting without citing sources. It recommends designing lessons with clear objectives tied to curriculum, assessing the process and product, and emphasizing skills like evaluating sources. The document also cautions about assuming the credibility of sources and provides examples of Web 2.0 tools that can be used, like blogs, wikis and podcasts, if guidelines are followed around copyright and plagiarism.
Integrating Technology-rich Assignments in the CurriculumLaurel Hitchcock
In this panel, four educators describe why and how they incorporate social media in classes across the curriculum. Ethical practice, professional presentation, grading social media assignments, preparing students to present for a public audience, and FERPA issues will be addressed.
This document discusses using social media, particularly Facebook, in the classroom. It notes that today's students expect technology to be integrated into their education. Data shows high percentages of high school and college students feel technology is important for schoolwork and communication. A survey found many first-year community college students used social media multiple times per month to connect with classmates and faculty on assignments. The document advocates using social media to promote networking, online discussion, and connecting with more reserved students. It proposes an experiment at the community college to train faculty on integrating social media into their teaching over the next year.
This document describes Study Buddies, an app that aims to facilitate spontaneous collaboration between students in the same classes who do not know each other by allowing them to post where they are studying and join other study groups. The app addresses issues like students feeling awkward asking unknown classmates for help and the lack of a unified mobile solution for organizing study groups. It works by having students answer three questions: what they want to study, where they want to study, and who they are with. The founders aim to test the MVP at schools like CMU and UIUC in 2013 before expanding to more locations in future years.

Teachers’ perceptions and experiences using web 2.0 tools in the k 12 virtua...Donna Cady
This document summarizes a research study about teachers' use of Web 2.0 tools in K-12 virtual classrooms. The researchers conducted an anonymous online survey of 44 teachers and a follow-up blog discussion. The survey found that teachers were interested in using Web 2.0 tools but lacked training. It also found the top reasons teachers gave for not using these tools were lack of training and time. The discussion revealed teachers wanted more professional development opportunities to learn how to integrate these tools effectively. The researchers concluded that providing teachers with training and support was essential for the successful adoption of Web 2.0 tools in virtual classrooms.
This thesis examines the use of Web 2.0 tools as learning activities among adult higher education faculty. A survey was conducted of faculty at Empire State College and Granite State College to understand their familiarity and use of tools like YouTube, Facebook, Skype, and blogs. The results showed that while many faculty were familiar with these tools for personal use, only about 30% used them in their coursework. Barriers to use included a lack of time to learn tools and concerns about students' technology capabilities. However, most faculty expressed interest in learning more about integrating Web 2.0 tools to enhance online learning experiences for adult students.
The document discusses using social media for educational purposes. It covers getting started with Twitter, building networks, and hashtags. It also discusses using social media for pedagogical goals like increasing communication and engagement. Specific social media like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube are explored with examples of educational uses. Managing social networks through linking and dashboards is also covered.
This document discusses using Facebook for student retention and community building at universities. It provides reasons for using Facebook, including facilitating communication and connections between students. It recommends creating an official university Facebook page to make announcements and share content. Managing the page involves monitoring for inappropriate posts, responding to questions, and asking questions to engage students. Facebook benefits students who are already comfortable with the platform and can promote collaboration. However, university staff must also participate on Facebook to engage with students and address any issues that arise.
This document provides contact information for educational technology staff, school intranet links, principals, and other important contacts for several Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools in Japan. It includes the names and email addresses of educational technology staff for each school who can help with accessing online learning resources. Intranet links and principal email addresses are also listed for each school.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
