“Web 2.0 tools that might allow academics to reflect
  and reimagine what they do as scholars. Such tools
  might positively affect -- even transform - research,
teaching, and services responsibilities - only if scholars
    choose to build serious academic lives online,
presenting semi-public selves and becoming invested in
    and connected to the work of their peers and
   students.” (Greenhow, Robella, & Hughes, 2009)

“... networked proximity facilitates new kinds of
 spatially unbound community, and that these emerging
 forms of sociality are equally or more meaningful than
the older ones. Community is thus “liberated”, unhinged
    from space, and can be maintained regardless of
                 distance” (Mejias, 2007)

What are some of the ways
that trust must be considered
when integrating technology
into teaching & learning?

                       •   Technical infrastructure of
                           the web.

                       •   Wikipedia’s content & form

                       •   ‘Hitchhiking’ exists through
                           Internet-facilitated kindness,

“Some of the comments on
           Youtube make you weep for the
            future of humanity, just for the
             spelling alone, never mind the
             obscenity and naked hatred.”

The Machine is (Changing) Us
          (Personal Democracy Forum)



                 • Inspired by McLuhan’s “We shape
                 our tools and thereafter our tools
                 shape us.”

                 • Youtube & other social media
                 mitigate “connection without
                 constraint”. In many cases this
                 leaves to “tremendously deep
                 communities”.
@mwesch
Heroes for our Mediated Culture
“The invention of the alphabet and the resulting
intensification of the visual sense in the communication
 process gave sight priority over hearing, but the effect
  was so powerful that it went beyond communication
     through language to reshape literate society’s
  conception and use of space.” (Gordon re: Mcluhan)

What’s the point?

•What do we gain in trusting educators with
technology?

•What opportunities are lost without this
trust?

•What credibility is lost when we assume that
we have control when in fact we do not?

•(How/Where) can we redirect our efforts in
positive, meaningful ways?
learners need trust
Living & Learning with Social Media
                           (Penn State address)



Teens are not connecting in the
ways we fear. But, we need to
pay attention to:

•Properties: persistence,
replicability, searchability,
scalability, (de)locatability.

•Dynamics: invisible audiences,

collapsed contexts, blurring of
public & private spaces
“Kyle Doyle is not going
                                   to work today, f*** it,
                                      I’m still trashed
                                       SICKIE WOO.”



 “Cisco just offered me a job!
Now I have to weigh the utility
of a fatty paycheck against the
daily commute to San Jose and
        hating the work.”

  • 12. “Web 2.0 tools that might allow academics to reflect and reimagine what they do as scholars. Such tools might positively affect -- even transform - research, teaching, and services responsibilities - only if scholars choose to build serious academic lives online, presenting semi-public selves and becoming invested in and connected to the work of their peers and students.” (Greenhow, Robella, & Hughes, 2009)

  • 38. “The invention of the alphabet and the resulting intensification of the visual sense in the communication process gave sight priority over hearing, but the effect was so powerful that it went beyond communication through language to reshape literate society’s conception and use of space.” (Gordon re: Mcluhan)
  • 45. i can haz internetz
  • 47. What’s the point? •What do we gain in trusting educators with technology? •What opportunities are lost without this trust? •What credibility is lost when we assume that we have control when in fact we do not? •(How/Where) can we redirect our efforts in positive, meaningful ways?
  • 49. Living & Learning with Social Media (Penn State address) Teens are not connecting in the ways we fear. But, we need to pay attention to: •Properties: persistence, replicability, searchability, scalability, (de)locatability. •Dynamics: invisible audiences, @zephoria collapsed contexts, blurring of public & private spaces
  • 50. “Kyle Doyle is not going to work today, f*** it, I’m still trashed SICKIE WOO.” “Cisco just offered me a job! Now I have to weigh the utility of a fatty paycheck against the daily commute to San Jose and hating the work.”
