VKB Course (Lynda Deutz assigments) Mind Map & Instruction Video

I made a mindmap about Facebook self. I think Facebook is a very fascinating and interesting social media website. I like it a lot more compared with other social media websites like Hyves, MySpace and LinkedIn.
The adventages are that you can share all kinds of things/information like photo’s, video’s, sharing and letting others know about activities and events (like party’s, birthdays, barbecues, big shopping sells and other events.
Also you can post a fact or something that has occurred and all of your friends can check that out on the main page (without having to look at someone’s profile) and react to it or ‘like it’.
This is in my opinion very nice because you can see in one page and one view all the latest information and other updates of and from your friends.

A lot of people use faceboook nowadays so you can see and read about your friends and other people about their interests and activities.
Facebook is also an excellent medium for advertisements.
Companies can provide ads to people on Facebook finetuned to their interests.
So if someone like clothing, he will see advertisements from clothing companies.
If you use the ad by clicking on it, it will be remembered and more ads from this category will be shown to you.
For the new learning project using social media I would make a Inholland/VKB topic inviting all the VKB students and making it available for them to see information from other (ex)students.
So every student can post a comment about the course, the project, the training etc. etc.

When a exercise is not being clear enough people can post it in the shoutbox and other can view it and react to it. I think it would be the best to post pictures or other kinds of additional information about it. So everyone can easily see what people are talking about.
Making this available as a application on your phone would make it extra attractive, so that students can view the information even during class. This project would make the course easier and more fun to do, because people can see what others made of it.
They can also read about problems and other comments about the exercises and assigments. Also others can view the end products from the projects, including ideas, concepts, topics and other types of additional information about it. I think this would work better than Blackboard because students view facebook more often than the Blackboard application.

I think in overall, things like blackboard would be better off if it would be incorporated with Facebook. If there´s an update people can read directly about it because people use Facebook so often nowadays.
Much more than the traditional types like Blackboard and webmail and Insite (these applications are slow, and not very appealing to most of the students, also most of the information shown on the sites/applications is hard to find and not clear at all).
So I think using this types of solutions would make it easier to take part in the minors (like for example Visual Knowledge Building).
