Why social media?
@sholtutm social media is about the social not the media. People connecting to people.
#edusocmedia
@dolanatpsu #edusocmedia a channel that allows for instant, unfiltered conversation,
collaboration & community
@ericaabramson defining social media: collaborative, accessible, no boundaries #edusocmedia
@spennell98 Social media is about anybody, anywhere sharing information about anything on
an accessible space. #edusocmedia
@gjerdery #edusocmedia is a distributed comm. platform where you control the degree to
which you participate, tending to be more open than private.
@athlwulf Social media is technologies used to assist in facilitating connections and
interactions between people #edusocmedia
@sholtutm 'Media' will change... 'social' will not. #edusocmedia
@ifoundbob Our def of #edusocmedia is "Digital Socialization - a virtual sharing life, learning
and self."
According to a survey by Joosten (2009), students reported that they need good
(67%) and frequent communication (90%) with their instructor and good communication with their classmates (75%). They also reported that they
need to feel connected to learn (80%) (http://tinyurl.com/yafu8qz).
According to PEW Internet study, “Teens who participated in focus groups for this
study said that they view email as something you use to talk to ‘old people,’ institutions, or to send complex instructions to large groups “ (http://www.pewinternet.org/Reports/2005/Teens-and-Technology.aspx?r=1).
According to Bulik (July 8th, 2009) “…They
go to social networking sites 5 days per week and check in 4 times a day for a total of an hour per day” (para 7).
According to PEW Internet study, “…
Nearly three-quarters (72%) of online 18-29 year olds use these sites–similar to the rate among teens–with 45% doing so on a typical day” (http://tinyurl.com/33hynyx).
New survey results also show that among adults 18 and older, Facebook has taken over as the social network of choice
73% of adult profile owners use Facebook
According to Joosten (2009), 71% of students want to receive text messages about their class (http://tinyurl.com/yafu8qz).
According to PEW Interent, “the typical
American teen sends and receives 50 or more messages per day, or 1,500 per month.”
