Social Media Basics for Educators
Our Horizon Project research, along with plenty of firsthand experience, has proven that social media is not just a fad. The education world is only beginning to harness its full potential. Social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter, provide endless opportunities to communicate smarter, foster close-knit communities, and garner more attention for academic projects. In partnership with the HP Catalyst Initiative, the NMC is hosting a two-part online workshop dedicated to helping educators build a solid social media identity and boost project visibility.
This first workshop covered essential material for forging your social media path -- from understanding your audience to finding and creating relevant content.
In case you missed it, the recording of the live event is available for free on YouTube (just push play on the video above!) and on iTunes U. The slides can be easily downloaded on Slideshare.
