It is time for us to better understand the potential of social media to change the learning experience of students and academics in higher education. Are we empowering students by adopting and adapting social, open, mobile and networked learning and media? How critically are we shaping the opportunity that is emerging? How sure are we that the social, open and networked space, with all of the autonomy it suggests, is good for our students?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The HE sector\u00a0needs to be able to address these questions, and others, before the place for social media in higher education learning is clear. The social media for learning landscape is vibrant and remains full of possibilities. Only together will we begin to reliably develop its potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0Indicative themes for research, case studies or discussion pieces included:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Autonomous development and ownership of learning experience<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Making connections and becoming networked, communities of practice<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Applying personal experience in a professional sphere<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Becoming digitally capable in a social world<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Being informed and in control of your digital identity<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The student-teacher relationship<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Authentic learning experiences<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The evolution of curriculum design<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Change agents, scaling up and moving beyond the cottage industry<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.shu.ac.uk\/socmedhe\/programme\/\">Programme of papers\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#SocMedHE16:\u00a0The Empowered Learner? #SocMedHE16 :\u00a0The Empowered Learner?\u00a0built upon #SocMedHE15\u2019s\u00a0Finding our social identity\u00a0theme where we established our common interest in developing our understanding of social media for learning in HE.
