This seems like a great idea, I am the Social Media Manager for a wonderful financial institution called Auto Equity Loans. Auto Equity Loans is great for its employees and for its clients. I think podcasting will help a lot with my marketing!

Thanks, Capt. Jeff! I'm sure all will work out fine. Especially with your prayers. I am very much looking forward to seeing you again. I arrive around 1:30. Going to chill before meet & greet. I am also working on a post meet & greet dinner somewhere. Any suggestions?

By the way, Technorati finally approved the site!

Just asked my buddy (well, patron saint, actually) St. Joseph of Cupertino to pit on a good word to the big guy. You two will be fine. See you Friday.

Comment on The Changing Landscape: Social Media in Education by Jeff Young

Well, Sarah, I am glad that you decided to watch this particular video. I think it opens up what we consider traditional education and places it on a “world stage.”

Everything in life contributes to our education… and forms who we are. Ahhhh… Aristotle. I love Aristotle. “Our actions reveal who we are, and they form who we are.” But I digress. What does morality have to do with education, right?

Thanks for the comment!

Maria,

Yeah, this is a topic that is close to my heart. As a teacher (former?), I want to use everything I can to reach my students. I have had fellow teachers and administrators tell me that the introduction of technology into the classroom has not demonstrated an increase in learning nor improved student performance. They refer to “studies” that have been done. But, it seems to me that they forget one important fact: motivation. If the content of my new media lessons do not improve student performance, perhaps the medium will attract the student's attention and motivate him to apply himself… in a way that he wouldn't do otherwise. For better or for worse, much of traditional education today is in some way “edutainment.” If we cannot keep the students' attention, we don't stand a chance of helping them to learn.

By the way, you are a new media maven in your own right. And thanks for your input and inspiration!

Tell me about it. That's what I compete with — both as an educator and a parent. Sometimes I think I'm losing that battle, but I realize that maybe, just maybe, I can learn something here that makes me a better teacher — and if not a better parent, as least a better communicator with my “plugged in ” kids.

Thanks for your good work, Jeff.
