#AdditionalTweet Did anyone else get more tech-savy on social media because of this course? 🙋‍♀️#GNED1411

@aishatahir98 There should be a law where companies must provide an abbreviated terms of service... who has the time to sit there and read through 12 pages of legal terms?!

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

@KendrewMcD I agree, we are using our cameras and photos a lot more in social media than we used to!

1.4.3.3 - I can use what I have learned about privacy and social media to protect myself and what others can view about me online. This will help me during my future career as a nurse, as it is important to be more low-key online for professionalism #GNED1411

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

14.3.2 - 1. I learned how to use the Wiki tool and collaborate with others online 2. How social media negatively impacts our privacy and intimate lives 3. Ways to use social media in a positive way in a classroom #GNED1411

14.3.1 - I was surprised to learn that Barrack Obama was really the pioneer of politics and social media and that it really helped him gain popularity as a candidate and therefore helped him win #GNED1411

14.2 - I think that live-streaming on social media is a technology that will become even more popular during the upcoming years as more and more people stream their daily lives online #GNED1411

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

14.1 - I see social media in the future more video-call based as recent and most popular newer social networking sites such as Snapchat or TikTok are video-call based. I can see other trends such as filters to alter your looks or voice being used too #GNED1411

@lrv4 Mine is very COVID-19 centred! I'm sure without this crisis my assignment would look much different

#AdditionalTweet Do you think the new cell phone ban in Ontario high schools is effective in helping reduce classroom distraction? #GNED1411

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

@DeonParis thats true! social media allows opinions and information to be shared among class mates.

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

@mikem20011 I agree, when I look at laptop screens in class most people are focused on social media rather than the class content, and Im definitely guilty of this myself

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

13.3 - In my opinion, social media is a distraction in the classroom. I've had social media all through high school and college and I admit I have been distracted from lessons due to social media many times as well as my peers. #GNED1411

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

13.2 - Social media is a great tool for education especially right now during the pandemic as teachers/profs could make groups for students to ask questions, comment, share strategies, etc. during social distancing measures #GNED1411

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

@KaelynKerr2 Did you find twitter an effective tool in these classes?

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

@KendrewMcD Instagram is the best social media platform to share pictures to others with!

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

13.1 - I've never used social media in my educational journey before taking this course. I can see where it can be useful, but I also can see how it can be a source of distraction. #GNED1411

@collegeofnurses Do you know if fall CPNRE registration dates will be affected yet?

[Kat Hurst @KatHurst4]

#AdditionalTweet Has anyone ever started a GoFundMe or charity funding page before for anything? #GNED1411

@KendrewMcD To me, the hashtag allows me to narrow down posts related to it better if people are hashtagging their own posts!
