@Educ307Momo very true, it is a big distraction

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

@kelseyzchin_ This is so true!

Social media is a great tool for people to communicate. For example facebook messenger for group projects and online communities are a great way for students to talk to one and collect the resources they need to succeed #lesson13

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

Active listening is a forgotten concept. We have become society where we rather speak to have an opinion rather than listening and learning from others to formulate a better view. #Lesson12

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

@kelseyzchin_ I agree, it would help to make conversation more interesting

Over recent years, Disney has been progressing in their representation in films. We are now seeing films that show case many different ethnicities and cultures. For example Moana, Coco, Mulan...#lesson11

The MeToo movement accelerated due to social media platforms which helped spread their message to create a large community of empowered women. Therefore, I do believe that in the 21st century social media is a key factor to spreading the word about social movements #lessson10

I think if schools were to implement more technology and using social media in the classrooms, that teachers do have a responsibility to monitor what goes on, however it is up to the individual to know what is the right and wrong things to do online especially older students.

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

Is there true privacy anymore when it comes to the internet and social media? #lesson9

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

I believe the format and components of research reports helps to keep ideas and research organized and understandable for the reader. Although it may seem tedious to do, it allows for a better quality of work.#lesson8

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

Implementing more tech and social medias in school can help children and teens get more involved using platforms that they are familiar with and like using. It can make learning more fun for all ages #lesson7

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

According to Langmia and Mpande, it can be confusing while learning online to get one main answer as there are so many different websites and youtube videos all explaining subjects in different ways (multiple identities)#lesson6

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

@kelseyzchin_ I agree, social media produces a lot of "fake news" and conspiracies that can sometimes lead to a false spread of information

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

According to Adorno he says true culture no longer exists and it has been replaced by the commercial products and administrative official. He argues that media has distorted culture to the point that it becomes empty #lesson5

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

#Lesson4 teaches us that the internet and technology is a great tool for many purposes however we have to be aware of digital health and wellness being affected. Being on the internet for too long or depending on it too much can cause many health issue such as vision problems.

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

Digital commerce is done through buying and selling on online platforms. We saw this through the pandemic as malls were closed people had to resort to shopping online even for simple things like groceries! #lesson4

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

@kelseyzchin_ I agree! As technology keeps advancing younger generations are becoming more familiar with new platforms and if teachers can find ways that entertain them as well as engage them in learning this can benefit everyone.

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

Constructivism and connectivism helps students acquire more knowledge through experiences like interacting with fellow peers. This can become a network with students and therefore become a helpful tool to gain more knowledge as they are learning from others #lesson3

[Emma Osmancevic @Emma06161]

@kelseyzchin_ I agree Kelsey! There are so many sources out there that sometimes it is hard to tell what source is reliable and what is not. This could lead to confusion for students when using social media as a learning platform.

@Emma06161 I think Kahoot is such a great tool and what’s interesting about it is that it’s fun for students of all ages. It demonstrates that no matter our education level, having a fun way to learn remains imperative.
