When my 20%
project is completed I feel as though many will learn and benefit from my
presentation. Being that I am researching social media in classrooms, I believe
that teachers and soon-to-be teachers will benefit the most from my project.
However, there is still room for non-teachers to take away valuable lessons
from my presentation as well. I believe that from my project and my
exploration, anyone that needs to demonstrate, communicate with, or unite a
large group of people will be able to do so with the tactics I will provide
about social media. They will learn how social media can connect and distribute
messages of many kinds and different ways in which they can carry out such
communication.
For maximum
benefit from the audience, there are many ways I could change and format my
blog. If I expand my blog posts to include follow up inquiries for my readers,
I can open up a forum where questions can be asked and comments can be made.
This will be of maximum benefit for my audience because it will allow them to interact
with each other, and with me, on the topics addressed. Providing this message
board will also allow for other points of views and ideas to be exchanged, thus
furthering everyone's understanding on the topic at hand.
In accordance
with my 20% project, a communication medium like this will be of great use for
follow up questions and examples that teachers and non-teachers can post and
share with others interested in social media integration. They can provide
items that worked, ways that did not and ideas for future incorporation.
