Social media and emerging technologies are gaining increased attention for use in education. The list of tools grows daily. Examples: blogs, wikis, Ning, podcasts, Facebook, Twitter, Second Life, cloud computing, surface computing, mobile learning, and so on. “Social Media: Trends and Implications for Learning” will explore the impact of new technologies, research, and related projects.
Finding coherence in the midst of rapid changes is increasingly difficult. This monthly session will create a forum for educators to gather, present, and discuss the future impact of today’s trends.
All sessions are co-sponsored by and will be archived in the Education & Information Technology Library (EdITLib).
