The A to Z of Social Media for Academia

The A to Z of Social Media for Academia | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

This post accompanies the newly established ‘Social Media News’ email list for academics and university support staff, sharing info about the latest platforms for use by academics in their professional lives. This is more about tools we can use to create or curate content, rather than a list of resources for use in academia. It will update periodically, but please also send me your recommendations to add.

What the little birdy tells me: Twitter in education 13th Nov 2013 | [Presentation] NetworkED | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

My plan is to have an anthological look at some of my previous/current work with Twitter which follows a natural  passive/monologic  and active/dialogic trajectory. For more information and the stream visit the NetworkED site 

Since the launch of the micro-blogging service Twitter in 2006 a number of academics have experimented with it’s use within education. Examples range from the passive/monologic course announcements to the active/dialogic directed discussion. This workshop will explore some educational ‘Twitter hacks’ which cover a wide range of activities from a free SMS broadcast system, Twitter for classroom voting and the application of social network analysis to for mining Twitter for actionable insights. As part of this participants will be shown a range of free and open source tools to assist in Twitter data collection and analysis including the Twitter Archiving Google Spreadsheet (TAGS) and NodeXL.
