Social Media Versus Higher Education
Many of us will find ourselves changing careers multiple times in our lifetime. Because of this we are now going to have to learn the skills to acquire new knowledge on an almost continuous basis. One way to help accomplish this is with the help of Web 2.0 social media networks.
Most likely you are already taking advantage of these ‘new’ social media networks. Whether you are socializing on Facebook, updating Twitter or just adding a new bookmark to Digg or ZoomIt Canada, social media has become an integral part of our daily lives.
