Woo! I’ve gotten through all 13 lessons. I loved the online environment that the Twitter World provided us and how it allowed us to experience some of the phenomenons and concepts described in the lessons. Signing out! #EDUC307

It was amazing to see Vivek’s more educational psychology-based perspective and Jihan’s more humanity-based perspective approach the lessons throughout the entire semester. It definitely provided a well rounded learning environment. Well done! #Lesson13 #EDUC307

Do you think that top down or horizontal communication models can influence information more easily? #Lesson12 #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

Jihan mentioned she believed capturing intercultural experiences on video and uploading them to social network sites can legitimize social media as news coverage. I wonder how she thinks AI & deep fake technology would impact that belief today. #Lesson12 #EDUC307

I think that Disney films have changed in a more gender/racial/ethnic inclusive way! Just look at the new The Little Mermaid film with Halle Bailey playing Ariel. A step in the right direction, although I was so disappointed seeing the negative backlash it got. #Lesson11 #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

I started watching “Mickey Mouse Monopoly” & it dawned on me that I had watched this film a few years back when writing a paper on the misogyny in the film The Little Mermaid! Interesting to see how #Lesson10 & #Lesson11 collided through this source and past experience. #EDUC307

Super interesting to reflect on Dr.Rima Abunasser’s comment that just because a discourse does not have a label does not mean that it doesn’t exist. #Lesson10 #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

Using social media as a cyberspace to highlight already existing movements is a such a powerful tool. It allows for more people to get involved and can also provide anonymity for those not comfortable fully presenting themselves taking part in a movement. #Lesson10 #EDUC307

@BeatriceRacane3 I’ve definitely had some bad experiences, but I think the craziest phenomenon right now is people completely stealing the identities of other’s using social media. People are sharing so much that others can steal their content and pose as them. Super scary! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@vanessasteaa Love the pop culture reference! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@thalyagouind I think it’s totally impractical to assume that students are reading every single word of a research report. Some assignments require us to include 5 or more sources! It’s just unrealistic. #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@gouskos307 @saramarzano03 Ugh! That term drives me nuts! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@LareebRehman It’s definitely a pretty new phenomenon, I wonder when schools will start to include it in curriculum. #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

It’s interesting to see how social media platforms such as Twitter, YouTube, etc. have been cited in scholarly literature. #Lesson8 #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@sjayfeldman Props to you! I never know if I’m doing them right or completely making it up as I go, haha! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@brianafarinha Ugh! That’s the worst. Lends back to the point about digital access if you think about it! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

Did anyone else's school have those laptop or iPad carts that would be shared from class to class? I remember my high school had them and everyone would get hyped when we saw the cart at the front of the class! #Lesson7 #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@brianafarinha Yeah, I typically use the Concordia Online Library. There’s tons of great resources & no need to worry about the validity. #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

Have you ever used social media to find scholarly literature? #Lesson8 #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@MelendrezMars Same here! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@AlexTurgeonEduc You got it, girl! #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@Mcristina_Bad Haha! So true. It’s definitely a little spooky, but that’s why it’s so important that we are aware of what’s going on so we can make our own informed and engaged decisions. #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

@Mcristina_Bad Very true. #EDUC307

[Alexa Davey @AlexaDSchool]

I’m not totally sold that all components of research reports are “critical” to the understanding of a scholarly output… sometimes you can just read an abstract or summary without going into every component and understand the outcome just as well. #Lesson8 #EDUC307 🤷🏼‍♀️
