*Upcoming online event: Immerse yourself in Facebook 6-8 March 2012*
Online Workshop: Immerse yourself in Facebook Tuesday, 6 March 2012 at
12:30 until Thursday, 8 March 2012 at 13:30 Online (in Facebook) Facebook
is the most popular social networking sites with over half billion active
users. While it is a fun tool for playing games, Facebook can be also an
effective communication tool for educators to connect with students and
colleagues alike, and for engaging and collaborating with them in a manner
that might not be entirely possible in traditional education settings.
This event will give you the opportunity to experiment with Facebook. It
will demonstrate the basics of Facebook and discuss some features that are
especially useful to educators. It will provide you with recommendations for
using Facebook wisely and tips to help you teach your students to use social
networking sites safely and appropriately.
This interactive workshop runs over 3 days entirely in Facebook and will
give you a full overview of Facebook profiles, pages, applications and
tools. There will be a project to complete, presentations to deliver and a
reflective evaluation. The event will also include an introduction to using
the e-Design Template to create engaging and scaffolded online learning
activities for your students.
All resources and support are included in the fee of £99
