A visual guide to using social media
At edSocialMedia, we like to encourage our bootcamp attendees to practice using social media in their daily lives. If the user sees it naturally fitting into their social lives, we find that they are way more likely to use the tools in the professional careers.
Among many other great things, this Infographic from Online Colleges highlights how educators can use social media in the classroom (or office, for that matter). Note the amazing correlation of “Comparison of Faculty’s Personal and Professional Use of Social Media by Site.” Use of channels such as YouTube, Facebook and Blogs are both the most popular in personal use as well as in professional use.
