  2. Definition • Social Media is the democratization of information, transforming people from content readers into publishers. It is the shift from a broadcast mechanism, one-to-many, to a many-to-many model, rooted in conversations between authors, people, and peers (Solis, B., 2010) • "Web 2.0" in just under 5 minutes • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLlGopyXT_g

  3. Components • Six core principles underlie the value of social-media solutions, and, in combination, serve as the defining characteristics that set social media apart from other forms of communication and collaboration. • Participation • Collective • Transparency • Independence • Persistence • Emergence (Bradley, A., 2010)

  9. FYI • Better Googling • The trick is to add site:*.sc.gov to the query where site: specifies which Web site (or sites) you want to search. In this case, I also used the wild card * before sc.gov so that any site run by the state government will be included. • voicethread- presentation • ProfHacker – Chronicle of higher ed • Wired campus
