Societal trends
Assess your students’ needs
Let the data drive your decisions
According to a survey by Joosten (2009), students reported
that they need good (67%) and frequent communication (90%) with their instructor and good communication with their
classmates (75%). They also reported that they need to feel connected to learn (80%) (http://tinyurl.com/yafu8qz).
According to PEW Internet study, “Teens who participated
in focus groups for this study said that they view email as something you use to talk to ‘old people,’ institutions, or to send complex instructions to large groups “ (http://www.pewinternet.org/Reports/2005/Teens-and-Technology.aspx?r=1).
95.1% of 18- and 19-year-olds use social media, primarily Facebook on a daily basis (Salaway, et al., 2009)
96% of undergraduates reported using Facebook (Smith & Caruso, 2010)
43% of undergraduate use Twitter (Smith & Caruso, 2010)90% use mobile devices to receive and send text messages
(Smith, 2010), over 1600 a month (Neilson, 2010)92% of college-aged students watch YouTube (Moore, 2011)
