Thoughts From Our Very Own Dr. Paul Kubricht

Dr. Paul Kubricht is currently taking an online course from the Distance Learning Association of Australia about MOOC's.  Here are his comments about what he has learned:

SOCIAL MEDIA

For many of us Facebook may be the limit of our social media involvement.  But if you begin to use several social media websites the issue of managing all of the sites and staying up with what is being said can become a challenge.  This web site gives a person a number of apps or tools to update them all through one account. These are not just used in a MOOC environment, but are also popular with businesses using social media. An app can save time by allowing a faculty member to post an announcement and have students using different social media all see it in their media of choice.  Please see the link below.
