The students we serve have dragged us kicking and screaming into their modes of communication. I have entered an era where I find myself completely dependent upon my computer, Blackberry, and personal facebook page. I can text almost as well as the tweens, teens, and twentysomethings, and before long I will tweet, too!
So it should come as no surprise that we announce Blogging with MoCC, Missouri Campus Compact’s newest communication tool. Some of you are already blogging on your own campuses, but here is where we can link up and share information and ideas on service-learning and civic engagement statewide.
If you would like to submit a post for this blog just click on the “contribute” tab and follow the directions. All faculty, staff, administrators, students, and community partners are welcome to submit an article. Missouri Campus Compact reserves the right to deny a post submission that is deemed inappropriate or untimely.
So, even though I refuse to relinquish my Franklin Covey planner, I am now ready to tiptoe toward this next method of providing the best service possible to Missouri Campus Compact members. Let the journey begin!
Good to see MOCC is now a part of the blogosphere!
@ Scott I agree!
Will be following up closely now
Excellent! Social networking is here to stay and even commercial companies all realize the power of these applications.
Students are a huge untapped market and large companies would soon realize that Social Networking is the best way to be in contact with them.
@ Sam – you’re right.
It’s changing the world in a big way.
Welcome to Missouri Campus.
All companies and college education should embrace the power of social media to strengthen relation and unite people.
The computer and the internet have definitely changed our lives but it is good thing because people become more involved and blogging is one way that promotes self-expression.
Its very easy to get carried away with just social media and the hundreds of bookmarking and video submission sites each day. But there is another ocean of opportunities when it comes to promoting a worthy message. I think its very important for all involved in this sort of thing to spend some time learning about it.
