I have always wanted to see what all the hype was about with online templates. I use the
Internet for email and research. I also have a
facebook account as well. That is the
extent of my
Internet knowledge. I would love to learn more and become more
savvy.
oh oh! come find me on facebook! ;)
ReplyDeleteI find the different networking sites useful for different things. Facebook, in my experience,is useful for leading groups of people who are similarly hooked up. If they are out of the loop, they are just further confused.
Twitter I find very useful for getting immediate messages out more quickly than email.
email is still pretty good - lots of timely and important information, but a lot of spam and scammers (I still want to know if anyone has ever gotten their money from a Nigerian Prince....)
Lots of organizations are using Facebook and like products (Twitter seems to be the flavour of the month) in instruction. It is especially useful for online courses -- this provides some form of interaction. There is a lot of documentation/essays/reports on the use of these social tools in education.
