Underpinning a disdain for social media in higher ed is the assumption that students have an inherent aptitude for new technologies (RT @polarisdotca: Great article on social media in education, esp #highered, by @joshsternberg in The Atlantic
This article provides insight into how classrooms are still the same as they were a long time ago. I liked the analogy they used of a doctor being put in a current hospital and may be lost, but if you put a professor from a thousand years ago into a modern classroom he would know exactly what to do. It is crazy to think that with all that we have advanced in technology we have yet used it to improve our education system and use it to our advantage.

The idea that newspapers need to become more social and transparent in order to build trust with their readers is not a new one -- but few have put it as well as a student journalist did in a recent column for The Daily Californian.
