Webinar 1- Classroom 2.0 LIVE
I listened to the November 2017 Classroom 2.0 LIVE webinar. In this webinar,I picked out two major points I found to be interesting.
The first one was when they talked about how social media has become such a big part of our world and one of the main ways we interact with the world. In our social media world we tend to follow people, places and topics that only show us one view point to an issue or situation and because of this we are becoming increasingly narrow minded. To avoid this narrow-mindedness, we must open our minds and media accounts and follow and view different kinds of people,places and topics that show us both sides of a situation. This in the end will keep us more informed and open to new ideas.
In addition, they talked about the CRAAP test to see if different sources and reputable and if we can actually depends on them to inform us of different material. We must look and decide if it is Current, Relevant, Accurate, what kind of Authority does the author have, and what the Purpose of the source is. By doing this, we can effectively weed out sources that give us inaccurate, one-sided information. Also, doing this with our social media accounts, like mentioned above, will help you end up with different sources that are reliable and show the whole picture.
Overall, I enjoyed her presentation and the information she offered.
