Student
Voices
I have learnt that social
media/social networks are not
just to be used as a distraction
for not getting work done but
can be used as an aid to get the
work done. Social media/social
networks can provide useful
tools to help with academic
learning.
Before studying it, I used Facebook
and Twitter mainly just for keeping in
contact with people, but since have
discovered they both have much
more to offer. They are places to
discover new information and boost
your knowledge. That both education
and socialising can be rolled into
one...

openness • social media • student voice/choice
3 tenets of my teaching
openness • social media • student voice/choice
AIM:
choose openness
where possible & where appropriate
USE
CREATE
SHARE
open resources
create to share, CC-licensed
openly, including my/our own learning
openness • social media • student voice/choice
AIM:
enable connection and learning
across the (artificial) boundaries
of time and space
TIME... class time, term time, academic year
SPACE... classrooms, schools, countries
# hashtags connect across time and space
openness • social media • student voice/choice
AIM:
use as many opportunities as possible
for students to Create & to Choose

Communicating
Creating (writing, coding, making)
Choosing
Working with others
Using social media
Connecting with a global audience
Being heard and respected
Receiving authentic feedback
Doing/creating something new, for this
time
Changing the status quo
Learners need to practice and experiment with different ways of enacting their identities, and adopt subject positions through different social technologies and media.
These opportunities can only be supported by academic staff who are themselves engaged in digital practices and questioning their own relationship with knowledge.
