Week 4 Post 3: Using Pinterest

 For this week's tool exploration, I found myself having a great time on Pinterest. While I have used the app before, it has been a while since I have spent time creating boards on Pinterest, looking at what's trending, and just finding inspiration. 

Since I am graduating this summer, I spent some time looking at graduation picture inspiration to plan out what to do. I ended up finding some nice poses, a whole outfit to wear under my cap & gown, and ideas for my hairstyling. 

While I did do more personal research on there, I did also take a look for tools related to educational resources. I found an infographic about using social media in the classroom and I thought would be great to share below.

My First Blog

 Welcome to Kenia's Corner! As someone who is unfamiliar with blogs, I am a little concerned about how well this is going to be. If you happen to be reading this, please feel free to leave some words of encouragement.  For this first blog post, I wanted to share my ideas regarding the concept of Web 2.0. I think that Web 2.0 changed the internet dramatically and shaped it into what we all now conceive as the online world. In this week's reading, I was interested in learning about the history of the web and how the different versions are different from the excerpt of Dr Dennen's upcoming book. The beginning of the internet was so exciting, and it grew even more over the last couple of decades to have such an abundant resource of information. The plethora of resources we have now is thanks to Web 2.0, where we can share information while also consuming it.  Despite the web developing into a big resource, I consider all this information's negative side effects. It sometime

Dearest Readers... (Bridgerton)

Any Bridgerton fans in this course? If so, please let me know your thoughts about the first half of the new season so far.  For those who are unfamiliar, Bridgeton is a series that follows a powerful family amidst their search for love while navigating London's high society. Since I am now caught up with the new season, I wanted to share some remarks regarding lady Whistledown and how exciting it is every time she shares her thoughts and gossip about society. Now, in that society, there is a patriarchal system but imagine it being on steroids as women are not allowed much to do. So Lady Whistledown has been keeping a hidden identity while writing about her society.  Now that you've had that introduction, I wanted to talk about how Lady Whistledown's articles would have been ideal for a blog in this day and age. Her articles would have made a popular blog, as a lot of people love to hear about the gossip and things that go on in the communities they are part of. Now the adva

Is Social Media a Practical Method for Learning?

 In this week's readings, one of the articles I read was about the case study done on high school students and how they use social media platforms for informal learning. The article, titled "Teens and Social Media: A Case Study of High School Students’ Informal Learning Practices and Trajectories," found that students can potentially learn through non-traditional methods, such as social media when it aligns with their interests. The primary themes found within the research were that there are three sorts of informal learning that include "career/future planning, entrepreneurship, and hobbies" (baggy et al. 242).These themes came as no surprise as we are aware that there are algorithms on social media for a reason. However, it was interesting to see career planning as one of the main ones that came up.  When I think about the concept of learning through social media, I think more about entrepreneurship and hobbies. There have been several instances where people h
