Assignment #13 Social media and Collaborative Learning

Hey guys,



In this installment I will talk about the collaborative learning and social media that we used in this class. Before this class I never realized how useful social media could be when it comes to learning. I always saw social media as a way to solely interact with friends and connect with others. I really liked the fact that all our assignments required a blog and youtube post because I was able to learn a lot through others. Before this class I was intimidated by speaking into a camera but now I am very comfortable as it comes second nature to me. I’m glad I have a blog because it is something employers will really like whenever I interview for a job. Before coming into this class I never had a twitter account and now I have a patent based twitter account with over 50 followers including some patent lawyers and patent experts. One thing I did not thing was so effective was commenting on videos and blogs. I think this became to repetitive at times and everyones comments were similar. I wish professor Tal or someone more knowledgeable would have given us more feedback on out homework. Other than that I think utilizing social media as a way of learning is very helpful in mastering the material.
