My PLN curation process:
1• I ‘follow’ many knowledgeable people and businesses in my
field of interest
2• I filter their ‘feeds’ and ‘streams’ using keywords & lists and
‘magazine’ tools
3• I use sites to ‘bookmark’ the useful bits (articles, links, images,
video etc)
4• I then collate them into my own webpage/curation tool and
share/publish back to PLN

The six dimensions of Social Media-literate leadership
http://www.mckinsey.com/insights/high_tech_telecoms_internet/six_social-media_skills_every_leader_needs
Staff & Student Awareness
1. How do we engage our staff so that they can see the benefits of social media?– Workshops, news stories & Solent events
2. How do we get students to use Social Media to ensure that they are ‘Employability Aware’?– In-class presentations & assessment
3. How can we help staff & students to recognise that their digital skills are actually DESIRED SKILLS and should be celebrated/promoted?– Communities of Practice?
Risks & considerations
What does your institution’s Plagiarism/Collusion regs say?– collusion - where the student/s knowingly or negligently allows their
work to be viewed by another student, in any form, and this work is then subsequently incorporated in, or represented as, the work of another student
Can it be ‘locked down’?Who owns your work?

Your ‘online self’ is an extension of your real self – what do you want the world to see? Are you restricted by marketing policy?
Risks & considerations
Should we alert people to their errors?
Managing Expectations..?
• Instant responses to messages?• Refusal to ‘sign-up’
– should they be forced?• Refusal to explore new media?• “You will be GOOGLED”!
So…
1. What’s the innovation?Institutional shift to improve digital literacy skills (staff & students)
2. What’s the impact?Improved Employability, Personal/Career Dev, Conversations, innovative assessments, reduced fear of ‘new tech’, lower tech ‘hump’, more lecturers coming to us with ideas
3. What are the implications?Solent’s Regs (assessment/marketing), individual/institution reputation, IPR/Ownership, data storage,
All a ‘Work In Progress’
