Effective Use of Social Software in Education
Are you using social software / web 2.0 tools with your students? For
example, social networking sites, blogs, wikis, Flickr, YouTube, Twitter
... ? If so, we would like to hear from you. We are most interested in
initiatives that have been running for some time (for example, more than
one semester) and those which include a reasonable number of students.
We are working on a JISC-funded project to create case studies of social
software use in UK higher and further education. The aim is to help the
educational community explore the potential benefits - and problems -
of this new domain.
The case studies and project report will be disseminated via the JISC
web site in early 2009. These resources will be of significant interest
to the HE and FE community, and should attract a very wide readership.
If you think your practice might make a suitable case study, please
email Dave Roberts ([log in to unmask]) at the Open University. For
further details of the project, see: http://tinyurl.com/5a8zu3
Many thanks & with kind regards,
Shailey Minocha, Karen Kear and Dave Roberts
