Social Media as a Professional Medium An equilibrium of enthusiasm and protection for student teachers Lee Dunn School of Education College of Social Sciences The University of Glasgow

Rationale and background

When I was a student source: John Atkinson, Wrong Hands

My students teachers

Having everyone onboard The use of social media is a personal disposition e.g. to use it or not to use it and the types of social media (Dunn, 2013) What will it be used for? Personal vs Professional The line between the two can often be blurred Allow students to use social media for learning, support and discussion. Allow students to learn how to develop and use social media. Allow them to work professionally. source: John Atkinson, Wrong Hands

Paper Abstract The paper considers the professional use of online social contexts to support teaching and to encourage discussion between learners. It will illustrate some factors intended to protect their digital identities, confidence and online well-being. Pilot Course Learning Discussion Assessment

Background Information Based on a wider project report Analysis of Digital Media to Support University Online Learning (Dunn et al, 2015) Student activity can be seen on Twitter using #MEduc14 and #MEduc15 Draws on data/information from: External Examiner Staff involved in developing / maintaining the course Students participating on the course

School of Education

Teacher Training Diverse Initial Teacher Education programmes at both undergraduate and postgraduate. Developing a range of new online programmes and courses. Seeking to nurture digital culture, capability and resilience within all our students as an extension to the graduate attributes framework. Focus on social media, digital content and knowledge transfer as a result of internal drivers (Teaching Scotland’s Future), external influences (Scottish Government Consultation on the National Digital Learning and Teaching Strategy) and evidence informed pedagogy.
