For anyone who knows me that comes across this profile, this is for my course EDUC307 DM me for my real twitter, I don't think you'll enjoy my posts on here lol

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@Cristina_Laz good luck to you too!! :)

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

Does anyone knows if we will have a study guide for the finals like we did for the midterm? Or do we have to plan our own revision? #EDUC307

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@bpaquin123 cool AND useful, because I feel like it helps students being more engaged!

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

If anyone asks me to sum up #EDUC307, I would say instructors using social media to teach us about how to teach with social media

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@stevenfurlano13 I agree

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

I will keep my notes of #EDUC307 preciously to use the material we learned as a teacher in the future

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

I'm glad that this semester is coming to an end, but weirdly enough I enjoyed using social medias as a learning platform, I even found myself procrastinating on my course twitter account #crazy

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

If a preparation document is given (like we had for the midterm exam) I know I will ace the final

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

At the beginning of the semester, I didn't even know how twitter worked, I am glad I took this course as I now might use social media to teach my future students

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@Jeremy_cohen96 my favourite types of videos are the raw ones with a narrator explaining what's happening

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@marymagic131313 @emily_newell96 @emily_haim yes, but I feel like a positive ending should make sense and fit with the story (and in children movies, the ending is quite cheesy and cliché most of the time)

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

"It's racist, but hey! It's Disney" I personally believe that "it's Disney" should be an extra reason for people to create non-racist content! Disney is meant for children, let's teach them how to counter racism instead

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@StavroulaTatsis that's true, but I feel like the news also filters the content according to what their viewers would enjoy or what the public would understand without having to explain too much since they have a limited amount of time

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

I feel like we know much more what's going on in other countries when seeing raw, uncut Youtube video from a victim's point of view then when we watch the news on TV, because we now see exactly what's going on

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@EmilyLindaRoqu2 Social media was also a great tool I used when learning about Arab spring

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

Have you heard of Arab Spring before #lesson12? Where have you heard from it? I heard from it in school, and my professor kept sending us links to social medias talking about it, but I never really heard important information about it in the news.

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@Caro_EDUC307 I am shocked to learn that many people are only discovering this, the instructor of this course are doing a better job than the news lol!

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@lblack21 Yes, also having access to many different points of view helps us understand better and make our own opinion

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

With social media and mass collaboration, as well as critical thinking we can find much more information on what's going on in a country, then while watching the news

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@emily_newell96 Yes, not only is it quicker, but we also see different points of view

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@bpaquin123 Yes! and if not fake, most of the times it is biased or not well presented

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@julia_parrillo it's such a shame that the news didn't inform us more about it

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@raphlafontaine9 It definitely is

[Natascha Paiement @n_paiem]

@raphlafontaine9 That's true, and I understand in a way, seeing some videos make me want to do something, and feel powerless when I can't help
