See on Scoop.it – #LearningCommons
Did you know that Twitter is grabbing more new registrations than Facebook, with more than half of its entire userbase compromised of people who have signed up in the last year, compared to just 19 percent for Mark Zuckerberg’s baby?
What if I said that almost a quarter (23 percent) of Facebook users check their account five or more times each day, Twitter users are 33 percent more likely to be Democrats or – sorry Foursquare – that 74 percent of Americans are unfamiliar with the concept of ‘checking in’.
These, and several other amazing social media statistics, can be found in the infographic on social media statistics.

We all want our children and teens to be safe, while surfing the net.
Growing up in a digital world makes them susceptible to online predators. This is why good communication skills are so critical.

It is better by far, to be more cautious, than careless.”

Educause has published this thought-provoking article about the new Learning Commons approach to Education.
Since most people have ”gone to school” in their lifetimes, they profess to be education experts. Interestingly, however, when people get sick, they seek out a Specialist (like a Doctor.)
With the New Learning Commons, there are still many questions to be answered:
Learning Spaces? Learning Hub?
Everyone has an opinion. What’s yours?”
