Social and Mobile Shouldn't Be Distant from Learning
Presented by Shelly Blake-Plock, President & CEO at An Estuary, LLCJust as social and mobile technologies have changed the face of communications, entertainment, politics, and business networking, so too are they changing the ways we learn online. Join in this conversation as we take a look at what’s going on “under the hood” of social and mobile technologies and discuss what these developments mean for academic institutions and corporations looking to maximize the accessibility and impact of online learning offerings.
Beyond Likes and Hashtags: Leveraging Social Media for Learning, Training and Networking
Presented by Dr. Kimberly Wilson, College of Education at Temple UniversityThis presentation will help socmephobes (those who fear social media) and experienced users alike get more out of social media. In this informative and interactive program, participants will be introduced to the basics of social media for the purposes of training, learning, and networking. The program is divided into three areas:
- Best practices
- Case studies and examples
- Suggestions and guidelines for using social media effectively
The effective use of social media in these contexts will be discussed using case studies and real-life examples. Participants will learn how to incorporate social media such as Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube into their training even if they have little or no experience with it. Whether you love social media or fear it, you’ll leave the program with a whole new outlook and concrete actions you can take immediately to elevate your work to the highest level.
