Re: [MTC Global] Facebook Pedagogy

Dear All,
Facebook could evolve Entrepreneurship Pedagogy too.
  • Harvard Business School Transformation For The Facebook Age was possibly one of the earliest initiative in this space, during 2012, reinventing the MBA and giving birth to a new generation of entrepreneurs, innovation, and startups.
  • ref: http://www.fastcompany.com/1837706/harvard-business-school-facebook-age
  • Learning by doing is a central tenet of the new FIELD (Field Immersion Experiences for Leadership Development) curriculum which supplements its venerated case method core with a required leadership and teamwork (FIELD 1), global immersion (FIELD 2) and entrepreneurship "module" (FIELD 3) for all 900 students.
  • HBS is far from alone among business schools in revamping its curriculum to focus on entrepreneurship and "action-learning." But the sheer pace and scale of FIELD's deployment—including requiring all 900 students be immersed globally at 150 established companies (FIELD 2) and then, a few months later, build from scratch 150 businesses and sell their products—is unprecedented and unparalleled,
Cheers,

Recently we were given a workshop on "IT FOR EDUCATION" by Microsoft and NIIT Partners of our group. It was so beneficial even to use ordinary tools that we use on regular basis with more emphatic and effective. We can also make students part of what we teach using technology. It also helps us to reunite the absentees with live recording and screen recording provisions just using ordinary MS Office tools. The Microsoft network solutions also have something known as "Sway" where like facebook we can create pages, publish our work and share our comments within our official group with high security options for official contents. It was a fantastic experience that we had.

Very well said. I must say that many big IT companies in USA were also started  by people who did not care about formal education or a degree. They had the idea,  the confidence and the drive to experiment. Any progressive academic institution will have to integrate social networks, mobile, analytic and cloud in their operations to remail competitive and viable. In the age of Internet content and connections are vital. Cheers.

Dear All,
Here are two Indian Tech Startups in this space by Non-Technical Founders:

  • FlexingIT

  • FlexingIt is a tech- based Indian start-up offering a curated discovery and market-making platform that connects organisations to professionals on an 'on-demand' basis for projects, consulting assignments, advisory roles and part time resource needs.  
  • Ms. Chandrika Pasricha's, CEO FlexingIt, being a non-techie herself, has successfully created FlexingIt Platform which have a registered user base of 17000+ professionals working with 1250+ companies across 105 cities.
  • Prior to this, she had been a management consultant for over 15 years, and spent a bulk of that time at McKinsey in both India and the United States.
  • SlideShare is an online community that allows users to upload and share PowerPoint presentations, documents, and infographics. It also provides users the ability to rate, comment on, and share the uploaded content.
    Rashmi Sinha, the confounder & CEO for SlideShare also claims to have come from a non-technical background. She did a Phd from Brown University and researched search engines & recommender systems at UC Berkeley. 

  • Deciding that she wanted to build products, she cofounded Uzanto which did design consulting during the day and built MindCanvas.  MindCanvas has been used by companies like Microsoft, CitiBank, Expedia and Yahoo. 

  • Slideshare that  was co-founded by Rashmi was bought by LinkedIn for $118M.

Face book, google groups and similar platforms  can be used very effectively to set up discussion groups and get students to engage. From my  experience some students whilst very passive in  face to face  and in class discussions  can be very active in on line forums  . This is particularly more  noticeable  when working with groups which are made up of  students from different nationalities and cultural backgrounds .

 In a research exercise I conducted some time back, it was clearly   apparent that some students preferred the on line discussion groups to in class discussions and contributed very actively .  The other positive  side is that all the discussions are recorded and more importantly the moderator can clearly  identify the level and frequency of participation from the members  

However to avoid 'possible abuse' the rules of engagement and behaviour and the role of the moderator must be  clearly specified when setting up a group .


Yes indeed a very useful pedagogical consideration

A fantastic pedagogy. However, many of us use Facebook Group , YouTube and Quora for learning purpose. There is a way out to make the efforts more structured and efficient. Please read below............
-----------------------------------------------------------[Source: City College of Plymouth]

About this idea

This will benefit:
Students:  particularly apprentices and those undertaking work based learning. They can take photos of problems (e.g. a faulty piece of pipework or joinery), share (in a safe environment) with their student peer group (that are all part of a safe, City College Plymouth tutor group) and share the problem. They do this:
Instantly
Real time
Provides impossible problems (and solutions) too difficult to replicate in the classroom
It could be a question – what's wrong here? How can you help? This will inevitably inspire dialogue and provoke a response from students (particularly those that don't speak up in the classroom so much)
Staff: Knowledge exchange – keeps tutors abreast of industry practices and problems. Particularly problems that cannot be foreseen. It also provides educational freedom for tutors.
•Possible use cases
This will be rolled out across the College within all vocational areas (hairdressing, construction, engineering, media, hospitality and catering etc). It will be about getting the tutors to utilise it – breaking down barrier surrounding Facebook security and taking advantage of this magical tool that can revolutionise learning.
•Deliverables
Facebook Pedagogy will be embedded into the curriculum – at first rolled out within the construction department at City College Plymouth and then, through training and development, within all faculty areas. It is anticipated that more than 50% of the vocational staff will utilise Facebook in their teaching and learning.
•Timescales
To roll out September 2016 within construction and over the full academic year remaining vocational areas.
•People who will be involved in developing the idea
Dr Simon Reddy – Plumbing tutor – project lead.
Construction tutors initially
Vocational tutors
Students, particularly apprentices and those that are work-based learning.
