Social Networking in Higher Education 13-250

Alaina Wiens, social media specialist at the University of Michigan-Flint. “With all the changes higher ed is experiencing, a lot of people are stubbornly territorial about what they’ve always done, and stressed out by all the changes happening,” she says. “We’ve got to get past that.” http://link.highedweb.org/2014/01/the-state-of-social-media-in-higher-ed/ 14-250

Ashley Hennigan, assistant director of social media strategy for the Cornell University Alumni Association “Social media and other innovative projects can provide incredible learning opportunities when they are placed outside of the typical institutional structure,” she says. “It’s here where we’ve learned to have a more ‘human voice,’ take risks, and learn from our smaller scale successes and failures.” 15-250 http://link.highedweb.org/2014/01/the-state-of-social-media-in-higher-ed/

16-250

Becca Ramspott, public information specialist at Frostburg State University says that the resources available at Frostburg State — including a campus-wide social media group, online guides, and workshops — empower anyone in a communications role to use and understand social media. 17-250 http://link.highedweb.org/2014/01/the-state-of-social-media-in-higher-ed/

How Social Media Is Being Used In Higher Education 18-250 Concerns remain about privacy, maintaining the class as a private space for free and open discussion, and the integrity of student submissions Most faculty agree that “ the interactive nature of online and mobile technologies create better learning environments ” and that digital communication has increased communication with students Faculty believe that online and mobile technologies can be distracting, and that they have resulted in longer working hours and more stress

Meg Bernier, assistant director of editorial services and social media at St. Lawrence University, “I think some of the roadblocks I face are lack of education and in some instances, lack of the willingness to learn, ” says Bernier. 20-250 http://link.highedweb.org/2014/01/the-state-of-social-media-in-higher-ed/

How Social Media Is Being Used In Higher Education Babson Survey Research Group and Pearson conducted a survey of nearly 8,000 faculty members in higher education to find out more about how faculty are using social media.a survey of nearly 8,000 faculty members in higher education http://www.edudemic.com/social-media-in-education/ 21-250

How Social Media Is Being Used In Higher Education Only 41 percent of faculty use social media in the classroom, but this use continues to experience steady year-to-year growth 55 percent of faculty use social media in a professional context (any aspect of their profession outside of teaching), up from 44.7 percent last year The level of personal use of social media among faculty ( 70.3 percent ) mirrors that of the general population 24-250

In the college classroom, a professor’s greatest challenge is always to keep his or her students awake. http://blog.sciencegeekgirl.com/2010/12/20/two-examples-of-social-media-in- the-classroom/http://blog.sciencegeekgirl.com/2010/12/20/two-examples-of-social-media-in- the-classroom/ Abilene Christian University in Abilene, Texas Adopted a new Facebook application simply called “Schools.” Developed by Inigral, Inc., “Schools” looks to help with campus issues, such as “marketing, retention, and creating a more cohesive campus.” 27-250

Using Facebook and Tumblr to Engage Students http://chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/using-facebook-and-tumblr-to-engage- students/47221http://chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/using-facebook-and-tumblr-to-engage- students/47221 Carol Holstead is an associate professor of journalism at the University of Kansas.University of Kansas Find the right topic Set up a Facebook group for a 75-student introductory design class, giving students extra credit for postingFacebook group Post examples of good or bad design from ads, magazines, books, blogs, websites, typography, video and photography. 28-250

Start early and provide solid examples Carol started the Facebook group at the beginning of the semester and provided examples of material she wanted students to post. She often showcased the best examples in class. 29-250

Encourage participation Carol looked at and commented on every post to encourage students to keep posting and also to bait students to actually look at posts. Partway through the semester after talking about photography, she suggested that students post their own photos, or even their own design work 30-250

Offer incentives to post Carol’s Facebook project allowed students to earn extra credit for posting examples, giving them a tangible benefit for minimal work. 31-250

Turn students into treasure hunters The Facebook project allowed students to apply what they were learning in class. Once they started looking for examples, they became treasure hunters. 32-250
