Social networks and overall new media has become an integrated part of people’s lives. To get an idea on how integrated these systems have become in our lives check out Shift Happens.
This video was created by a group of Colorado teachers to let people know how technology is changing our lives every day. Mashable has created a great list of online tools and social networks that can help teachers, tutors, and students.
On a side note does anyone have any examples of academic institutions utilizing social networks other than marketing avenues? If you are apart of an institution utilizing new web 2.0 technologies or know of one please let me know. I would like to start reviewing academic institutions integrating these technologies to benefit their student’s education.
