Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to establish a social media learning community, to provide the essential skills for contemporary learning for people engaging in the world of work in a global environment.
It applies to educators taking a leadership position in using social networking as a mode for e-learning to facilitate learning.
This mode promotes constructivist learning, knowledge transfer and problem-solving skills, highly relevant in a contemporary age. Connectivism, and the contribution of the collective through online communities, put learners at ease to engage in web-based learning, and to empower them to perform as confident members of the workforce and community.
The unit may relate to learning activities in an educational institution.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
