Social Networks
Web-based services that allow individuals to:
• construct a public or semi-public profile within a bounded system
• articulate a list of other users with whom they share a connection
• view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system
![Page 3: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Participation
• Active users of social media produce large amounts of content every day.
• Creative commons agreements expand the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally and to share.
![Page 4: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Social media theorist, Clay Shirky
"Participants are different. To participate is to act as if your presence matters, as if, when you see something or hear something, your response is part of the event."
![Page 5: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Virtual Community
• Each platform offers different functionality and has its own culture, which is largely the product of its most active participants.
• Cultures grow and change in response to how participants use the service (Facebook is social, Twitter informational, LinkedIn professional, etc.).

• Tools to filter, share, learn, recommend, review and comment on quality
• public and private spaces for themed discussions
• Create and maintain your online identity & reputation
• virtual community/support system

Blogs & microblogs
• Weblogs are sites containing the writer's or group of writers' own experiences, observations and opinions, often having images and links to other sites.
• Informal spaces where new ideas and research can be reviewed and discussed in a way similar to conventional academic conferences, but unbounded by time and place.
![Page 10: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Influence of Blogs
• Blogging helped to create a political crisis that forced Trent Lott to step down as majority leader.
• “Rathergate” scandal: the advent of blogs' acceptance by the mass media, both as a news source and opinion and as means of applying political pressure.

Social Bookmarking
Tools to search, organize, store, tag and share vast amounts of information and aggregate the collective recommendations of a disciplinary community.
![Page 16: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Folksonomies
• collection of tags distinguished from the conventionally ordered, official and hierarchical taxonomies of information
• dynamic and highly flexible, created ‘as you go’ in a way that suits a particular purpose
• users can define tags specific to their needs and see how other users cross-file information under multiple tags leading to serendipitous discovery of links they would not otherwise have seen
![Page 17: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Gift Economy
Collaborative consumption represents a shift in behavior brought about by the emergence of social networks and real identity online.
• the idea of accessing rather than owning
• based on trust, value and spreading resources
![Page 18: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Trust Factor
Startup TrustCloud aims to empower the social economy by developing a portable reputation system for the Internet. The company calculates a user’s reliability, consistency and responsiveness by measuring social presence across other sites, including Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
![Page 19: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Renting vs. Borrowing
While it’s called the “sharing economy,” not everything is free. Some peer-to-peer marketplaces are transaction-based, while others encourage sharing free-of-charge. It seems the exchange of money has an effect on the culture that forms around a site.
![Page 20: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
It’s all about Value
“Collaborative consumption is common sense. The majority of car owners don’t drive their car every day. WhipCar enables them to earn money during this idletime — it’s even possible to totally offset the cost of owning a car by renting it to neighbors when it’s not being used.” –marketing director of WhipCar, Jonathan Clark

Funding Services
leverage the power of social media to crowdfund creative projects or help teachers fund urgent classroom needs
• Kickstarter is a funding platform for creative projects
• DonorsChoose is an online charity connecting you to classrooms in need
![Page 22: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Misinformation
Investigators from the University of East London Cass School of Education determined that social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter can correct misinformation about natural disasters and other catastrophes as the events unfold.
![Page 23: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Social Media & Activism
Google executive, Wael Ghonim, anonymously launched a Facebook page commemorating Khaled Said, a 28-year-old businessman in Alexandria who was beaten to death by two policemen in June. The page became a rallying point for a campaign against police brutality, with hundreds of thousands joining. For many Egyptians, it was the first time to learn details of the extent of widespread torture in their own country.
![Page 24: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Wael Ghonim
“I want to meet Mark Zuckerberg one day and thank him on behalf of Egypt. This revolution started on Facebook in June 2010 when hundreds of thousands of Egyptians started collaborating content. We would post a video on Facebook that would be shared by 60,000 people on their walls within a few hours. I've always said that if you want to liberate a society just give them the Internet.”
![Page 25: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Social Media Marketing
The emphasis that social media puts on the creation of communities and the ability to collectively communicate, has some leaders in the field talking about the need to change the definition of ROI when it comes to social media.
![Page 26: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Strategy

Criticism
Some academics fear that the quality of public and academic discussion and debate is being undermined, and the ubiquitous use of the Internet and digital technologies like smartphones are potentially damaging to our thinking, our culture and our society in general.
![Page 30: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Growth of Technology
• Encroachment of technology into every aspect of life has potentially damaging implications
• Technology moves faster than our educators and policy makers.
![Page 31: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Information overload & Multitasking
• Social media have dramatically increased the amount of publicly-available information.
• Over-complexity is the enemy of efficient communication, leading to noise rather than information.
![Page 32: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Personalization
Personalization tends to sort people into categories that may limit their options. It is a system that cocoons users, diminishing the kind of exposure to opposing viewpoints necessary for a healthy democracy.
![Page 33: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Echo-Chamber Online
Group polarization is the idea that group deliberation with like-minded people and insulation from alternate views creates increasing extremism.
New gate keepers must be sure that algorithms are encoded with a sense of public life and civic responsibility
![Page 34: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Filter Bubble
A a phenomenon in which websites use algorithms to selectively guess what information a user would like to see, based on information about the user– such as location, past click behavior and search history—that tends to exclude contrary information.
![Page 35: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Social Search
Unlike traditional search technologies that return results based on algorithms and search history, social tools provide alternative approaches to questions based on intelligently-filtered information that helps to stimulate new questions, in the same way that a conversation with a colleague might.
![Page 36: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Privacy
• culture of active personal and professional disclosure changes the interface between public and private spaces and misuse of data
• changing and complicated privacy policies, sign-ups and user agreements
• employer and government requests for access to personal passwords and activity
![Page 37: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Peripheral
Some researchers believe that social media are still peripheral in research, and this leads some to argue that it is therefore not worth engaging.
![Page 38: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Loss of an Authoritative Perspective?
Traditional publishing aims to provide a filter for quality whereas social media allow everyone to publish without constraint. This inevitably means that it is more difficult to identify which contributions are valuable or authoritative.
![Page 39: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Work/Life Balance
Social media have the potential to extend your working day and blur the distinction between work and private life. People need to think carefully about boundaries, particularly if they are using mobile devices.
![Page 40: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

![Page 41: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Elena Golovuskina (PhD student, Education)
“I prefer blogging, microblogging, social bookmarking, social citation like Zotero, writing tools, social & professional networking sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, and aggregators and dashboards like Netvibes. They are all integral in my everyday and professional life but for different reasons.”
![Page 42: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Terry Wassall (Principal Teaching Fellow, Sociology)
“I think social media made me a better researcher because I find information a lot faster and have a network of individuals I respect that discover, filter and discuss. I have connected my research to the real world in a way that would not have been easy before and maybe not possible. For curriculum development and teaching, social media connects with real issues that interest and engage students and has helped them become student researchers in their own right with a broader and more critical take on issues.”
![Page 43: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
The Academic Research Cycle
1. Identification of knowledge
2. Creation of knowledge
3. Quality assurance of knowledge
4. Dissemination of knowledge
![Page 44: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
![Page 45: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Identification of Knowledge
• enhances research capacity and saves time
• harnesses networks to discover and filter knowledge
• enables participation in seminars and conferences via podcasts, etc.
(literature/peer reviews)
![Page 46: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Creation of Knowledge
• provides more effective collaboration and immediate feedback
• raises the profile of your work more rapidly than conventional academic publishing
• encourages research groups to work together across departmental, institutional and national boundaries
![Page 47: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Quality Assurance of Knowledge
• competitive funding mechanisms
• ethical approval
• academic line-management
• peer review and peer scrutiny at conferences
• publication and post-publication review
• citation
![Page 48: Social Media Workshop, postgraduate](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110114/547a7a1d5906b536358b46d6/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Dissemination of knowledge
Disseminate your research more widely and effectively:
• consider the tone for publication of scholarly ideas via social media
• consider the audience (The Head of Department, your peers, your research subjects and the general public may all read what you write)
• consider the intellectual property and copyright implications of making your ideas and results available via social media?
