Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 45
Book Description
The use of social networking sites (SNS) has been adopted by and integrated into the daily lives of an increasing number of adolescents. Young people are amongst the most prolific and substantial users. This study discusses a number of issues related to the use of social media and social networking sites, such as: Why do such masses of young people use such sites? What do young people express on these SNS? And lastly, how do these sites enhance or fit into the lives of young people? Much has already been said about the risk management paradigm with regards to social media use by young people. Therefore, this study attempts to readdress this imbalance and focus on the perceived benefits. However, it does not ignore the potential contents and contact risks which are also explored.

Examining Multiple Intelligences and Digital Technologies for Enhanced Learning Opportunities
Author: Zheng, Robert Z.
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 1799802515
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Multiple intelligences (MI) as a cognitive psychology theory has significantly influenced learning and teaching. Research has demonstrated a strong association between individual intelligences and their cognitive processes and behaviors. However, it remains unknown how each of or a combination of these intelligences can be effectively optimized through instructional intervention, particularly through the use of emerging learning technology. On the other hand, while efforts have been made to unveil the relationship between information and communication technology (ICT) and individual learner performance, there is a lack of knowledge in how MI theory may guide the use of ICTs to enhance learning opportunities for students. Examining Multiple Intelligences and Digital Technologies for Enhanced Learning Opportunities is an essential reference book that generates new knowledge about how ICTs can be utilized to promote MI in various formal and informal learning settings. Featuring a range of topics such as augmented reality, learning analytics, and mobile learning, this book is ideal for teachers, instructional designers, curriculum developers, ICT specialists, educational professionals, administrators, instructors, academicians, and researchers.
