What's the Best Use of Your Time on Social Media? | Learn Rinse Repeat | Scoop.it
How can you best spend 30 minutes on online marketing? Here are four ideas for the ultimate in social media time management.

Via Danielle M. Villegas
Valary Oleinik's insight:

I often suggest that people develop a 30 minute (or whatever length they want) long plan as part of their personal learning environment. They are worried at first about being overwhelmed by the waves of information from social media but I assure them that the water will still be there and they can just dip their toes in as they see fit to help stay current of their area of interest or influence.

Danielle M. Villegas's curator insight, April 16, 2015 10:13 AM

Koka Sexton posted this on Twitter, and connected me with Kevan Lee's article here. Kevan also wrote the other great article for Buffer that I posted yesterday, so this guy obviously has some great ideas on how to convey how the process of blogging and social media can be done. I recommend reading this article because there are some good ideas, and it shows that you don't have to spend an eternity on social media to make it good. Kevan has some great tips here.

Three Critical Conversations Started and Sustained by Flipped Learning

Three Critical Conversations Started and Sustained by Flipped Learning | Learn Rinse Repeat | Scoop.it
The flipped learning model of instruction has begun to make the transition from an educational buzzword to a normative practice among many university instructors, and with good reason. Flipped learning provides many benefits for both faculty and students. However, instructors who use flipped learning soon find out that a significant amount of work is sometimes necessary to win students over to this way of conducting class.

Interesting insight from Daphne Koller.
- MOOCs reach non-traditional students (mainly cont. edu.)
- MOOCs are excellent for experimentation with education concepts and tactics
- A new question asserts itself: What type of qualification/certification does justice to/formalizes this type of learning?

Models For Designing Your Personal Learning Environment

Models For Designing Your Personal Learning Environment | Learn Rinse Repeat | Scoop.it

A personal learning environment (PLE) is a solution for keeping up with the rapid pace of knowledge change. Some say it is a concept, while others say it is a technology.

I think a good definition is this: a self-directed and evolving environment of tools, services and resources organized by a person seeking a way to accomplish lifetime learning, to create, and to connect with others of similar interests.

Because it is personalized, everyone’s PLE will be unique. Because it is collaborative, information may be continually created and shared. In the workplace, designing a personal learning environment has the potential to partially replace conventional courses.
