Exploring Social Media for Professional Development

2/25/2014

2 Comments

 
There are many social networks out there.  Each has strengths and weaknesses when it comes to student use, professional use, or professional development.  Even if you can't make it to the national conference, social media offers a way to experience the conference back-channels, where professionals are connecting with one another, and discussing new ideas (#wnyadvising, #ACPA14, #NASPA14).
Similarly social media offers a way to engage nationally or internationally on topics with other professionals through scheduled ongoing discussions (#AcAdv, #SAchat).

Want to know where to start looking for professional development resources in higher education?  Check out our social media page for some places to start.  We are in the process of noting tips on using social media sites and indexing resources available on those sites  relevant to academic advising and higher education.  So far we have cataloged a number of resources associated with the following social media sites:
  • Facebook
  • LinkedIn
  • Twitter
  • Youtube
If you notice important resources that aren't listed on our site, or use other forms of social media that we haven't developed yet, please submit them. If you have presented on social media, you are welcome to share your presentation on our site as well. 

If you are interested in learning more about social media, be sure to check out this session at the annual Uniting Across Campuses Conference on Wednesday.
  • "Operation Engage: Effective Social Media Marketing for Higher Education Professionals" Presented by: Jillian Reading, Academic Advisor, University at Buffalo School of Public Health & Health Professions; Tim Matthews, Assistant Director, University at Buffalo Honors College.

This study is embarking on an exploration of how a group of higher education professionals use social media and endeavors to investigate if these activities are influential to their academic professional development.
