[edit] Class Ideas

  • Do SNS/Web 2.0 tools enable learning?
  • Do they help you learn? Bloom's types of learning:
    • Experiential/Psychomotor: manual or physical skills (Skills)
      • Using FB in the class setting, what new perspectives have you picked up?
    • Affective: growth in feelings or emotional areas (Attitude)
      • Has FB reshaped how you feel about the class, classmates or learning space?
    • Cognitive: mental skills (Knowledge)
      • Learning about FB, have you picked up new ways of using it, or new senses of how it can be used?
  • Motives for using SNS in education:
    • Finding students in their "own spaces"
    • Using a tool familiar to the students
    • Reducing the number of sites a student has to visit
  • How have the tools we've used in this class (Facebook/Wiki/Del.icio.us) enabled learning, how have they worked?
    • What are the productive uses?
    • What didn't work?
    • What could be done better?
  • Identity/Privacy and Web 2.0 and Teaching
    • Should you friend a professor? (or boss)
    • Can/should we separate contexts
