On the top right side of IHEC Blog you will find a brief poll I’m conducting on new media use in international education. Specifically, I want to see which new media tool you feel is the “best” for keeping up to date on the field of international education. I, like many colleagues, find myself utilizing all of the new media tools listed below in the poll (except MySpace as I’m not there ~ should I be?) but there are a few that I turn regularly for information so it is a difficult decision for me (I get to vote in the poll don’t I?). I purposefully set up the survey to allow only one answer per person. I estimate that this survey will take you 17 seconds or less to complete and I thank you in advance for your time!
The poll closes on Friday, June 30th at 11:59 (CST) and the results will be announced Monday, August 2nd on the new International Higher Education Consulting website at http://davidcomp.wordpress.com/
For about 30 minutes after the poll went live there were technical difficulties with the blogger poll so I removed it and added a new poll by addpoll.com and it seems to be working now. If you previously voted I apologize for the inconvenience.
ReplyDeleteI am excited for the results. For a group project, we have created a website www.studyabroadconnection.weebly.com that is meant to act as a resource to highlight all the ways in which social media tools can make the SA experience more rewarding for both admin and students. We will be sure to post your results on our blog! Check our site out and let us know what you think!
ReplyDelete@Emily ~ Many thanks for your comment. I'm looking forward to the results as well and will be posting on various new media/social networks with a final push tomorrow before the poll closes on Friday. There's much going on with new media and international education. Really like your site and blog and added it to my International Education Blogs & News site at http://internationaleducationblogs.blogspot.com/.

ReplyDeleteDavid,
ReplyDeleteI am a new instructor and I am interested in more details regarding incorporating media tools of the 2st century in education, can you gage me to a specific international blog where a discussion is being held.
@Digital Scrapbook for Technology Tool ~ I'm not familiar with any international blogs discussing this other than the High Techpectations blog by Lucy Gray at http://www.lucygray.org/weblog/
