Lenovo’s Mary Ma on EducationRegarding the acquisition and integration of IBM, Mary Ma noted how education socialized employees in ways that impacted their job performance for decades. Passive education translated into passive workplace tendencies, and opportunities to improve the M&A process were missed when initiative was not taken.

• Responsive to student currents
• Faculty facilitate and ask
• Decentralized; user-generated content
• Can link and share in any direction
• Ability to comment, vote, contribute, and more
• Self-regulated or, at most, moderated

Socializing a Digital Native• The average college grad starting work
– 5,000 hours of video games on average– 250,000 email, instant, and text messages– 10,000 hours of hand phone use– 3,500 hours of time on-line
• “Today’s younger workers are not little us-es.”

Evolution of Weak Tie ThinkingWeakly ties individuals see each other infrequently and their relationships are casual rather than intimate.
- M. S. Granovetter, 1983
Heavy email users us email in conjunction with other media to maintain a relatively large number of weak ties.
- Pew Research, 2004
Enterprise social networking software lets our prototypical knowledge worker stay in touch with a large network of colleagues, allowing her to keep up to date with that they're doing, working on, and producing. It also lets her tell this network what she's up to.
- Andrew McAfee, HBS, 2007

Why Does A Global Network Enhance Student Learning?• Leverage: Larger networks of weak and strong
ties enhance the learning opportunity– Faculty in perfect position to grow strong ties
• Motivation: Students love connecting with and learning from professionals around the globe
• Constructivist Process: Students recognize they are creating something new
• Experience: They succeed using social media

Wikitexts: PCL Behind the Firewall
• Students write their own textbook on the wiki• Peer-editing and faculty feedback guide revision• Constructivist and partially decentralized model
where students create their knowledge exchange

What’s the Most Important Question?
Where in the learning process do we have what Clayton Christensen calls “nonconsumption?”

What the Research Says• Preliminary finding that student learning
improves when students are asked to co-create a wikitext– Wikibooks in Higher Education: Empowerment Through Online
Distributed Collaboration by Ravid, Kalman, and Rafaeli. Computers in Human Behavior (24) 2008.
• Study of writing instruction found no statistically significant difference between expert and peer feedback when more than six peers offered instructive feedback– The Impact of Two Types of Peer Assessment on Students’ Performance
and Students’ Performance and Satisfaction within a Wiki Environment by Yun and Lucking. Internet and Higher Education. (2008)

So What’s the Problem?

What the Research Says• “Some faculty members feel that some Web 2.0
technologies could improve students’learning…few choose to use them.”
• Faculty attitude and perceived behavioral control are strong predictors of [faculty] intention to use Web 2.0– Admin should focus on perceived usefulness and ease of use– Faculty need to feel confident using the technologies– Best practices models are needed

Case Study: Michael’s Classroom• Co-create knowledge on wikis• Read about current events and big ideas
(e.g., codes of conduct) with RSS feeds• Update each other with brief interactions
by instant messenger• Increase experiential learning through
blogging and podcast production• Build global networks for learning,
discussion, and feedback

What the Research Says: Facebook• Faculty Facebook pages do not appear to have
a significant positive or negative impact on student ratings– 66% student respondents felt it was acceptable for
faculty to be on Facebook– 33% raised privacy or identity issues—concern that
their page may negatively impact faculty perception of that student (unaware of privacy controls?)
• Positive responses suggest that students like getting to know faculty better
• Trade-offs: some loss of control over self-presentation for faculty and students
