- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eUeL3n7fDs Social media is distinct from industrial media, such as newspapers, television, and film. Social media comprises relatively inexpensive and accessible tools that enable anyone (even private individuals) to publish or access information – industrial media generally require significant resources to publish information. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_media) Social Media may include (although is not limited to): social networking sites (eg Facebook, Myspace, LinkedIn, Bebo, Yammer) video and photo sharing websites (eg Flickr, Youtube) blogs, including corporate blogs and personal blogs blogs hosted by media outlets (eg ‘comments’ or ‘your say’ feature on theage.com.au) micro-blogging (eg Twitter) wikis and online collaborations (eg Wikipedia) forums, discussion boards and groups (eg Google groups, Whirlpool) vod and podcasting online multiplayer gaming platforms (eg World of Warcraft, Second life) instant messaging (including SMS) geo-spatial tagging (Foursquare) The common link between social media websites is that you are able to interact with the website and interact with other visitors. You may be able to share text, images, video, comments, votes and links there. Any website that invites you to interact with the site and with other visitors falls into the definition of social media. Photo Credit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/76284765@N00/5971049633/

- Social Networking Features Social networking is based on a certain structure that allow people to both express their individuality and meet people with similar interests. This structure includes having profiles, friends, blog posts, widgets, and usually something unique to that particular social networking website -- such as the ability to 'poke' people on Facebook. Profile. This is where you tell the world about yourself. Profiles contain basic information, like where you live and how old you are, and personality questions, like who's your favorite actor and what's your favorite book. Social networks dedicated to a special theme like music or movies might ask questions related to that theme. Friends. Friends are trusted members of the site that are allowed to post comments on your profile or send you private messages. You can also keep tabs on how your friends are using social networking, such as when they post a new picture or update their profile. Friends are the heart and soul of social networking. It should be noted that not all social networks refer to them as 'friends' -- LinkedIn refers to them as 'connections -- but all social networks have a way to designate members as trusted. Groups. Most social networks use groups to help you find people with similar interests or engage in discussions on certain topics. A group can be anything from "Johnson High Class of '98" to "People Who Like Books" to "Doors Fans". They are both a way to connect with like-minded people and a way to identify your interests. Sometimes, groups are called by other names, such as the 'networks' on Facebook. Discussions. A primary focus of groups is to create interaction between users in the form of discussions. Most social networking websites support discussion boards for the groups, and many also allow members of the group to post pictures, music, video clips, and other tidbits related to the group. Blogs. Another feature of some social networks is the ability to create your own blog entries. Apps/Widgets. A popular way of letting your personality shine through is by gracing your social networking profile with web widgets. Many social networks allow a variety of widgets, and you can usually find interesting widgets located on widget galleries. There are thousands of applications on Facebook that further help you share content and interact with others. To browse the applications you already might be using or to search for more applications visit http://facebook.com/applications to browse available applications. Popular applications include Photos, Events, Movies, and Causes.
- What is your goal? Before joining social media, think about why you want to use it. Your goal might be to make more industry contacts, engage with customers or build brand awareness. Having a goal will give you some direction when determining your social media activities, as well as measuring your overall success. Choose a platform. When starting with social media, it’s a good idea to focus on one social media platform first. Then, once you’ve mastered one platform, you can move on to another. Taking on too many at once can be very overwhelming and may be less effective. When choosing the right platform for your business, think about which platform will help you achieve your goal. You also need to consider the best platform to help you reach your target audience. This will be the platform your target audience is most active on. Define your area of expertise. Getting involved in social media is a great way to communicate with your customers and position your business as an expert. One way to do this is by showcasing your business’ expert knowledge in a particular area. Define your business’ area of expertise and make sure your profile reflects this. For example, discussing it in your business’ bio and posting and commenting on expert articles about this area. Get your information ready. Before creating a profile on a social media platform, make sure you have all your information ready. Write a short bio for your business, create a cover image and logo/avatar image in the correct sizes and have your company information, such as contact details, ready. This way, when you do create a profile, you will have all the information ready to fill it out straight away. Having a completed profile is important so people are able to find you and understand more about the business. What content will you post? You need to think about the type of content you will post on social media. Before you sign up to social media, it’s a good idea to prepare content to ensure you have something to post. To help you plan your content, also consider developing a content calendar. This will also help you make the most of the content you have. Who will monitor it? Think about who will be in charge of your social media profiles. It’s a good idea to have at least one social media manager within your organisation who can monitor, update, post and measure social media, as well as manage other employees’ involvement. This will help you to ensure your social media is managed correctly. Build followers. Once you have created a profile on social media, you need to start building your followers. One way to do this is by informing your friends, clients and networks about your profile and encouraging them to follow or connect with you. Include the URL to your social media profile in all of your marketing materials, business cards, email signatures, newsletters, website and more. Measure success. Think about how you will measure your social media involvement to determine its success. This can also help you to discover whether your activities are working and what you can do to improve your results. You could use a paid or free social media monitoring service or develop your own system. For example, Sprout Social is a paid service and monitors your followers, influence, engagement, clicks and more. Create a strategy. After answering the eight questions above, you will have a wealth of information that you can include into a social media strategy. A strategy will help you to formalise and organise all of your activities on social media and help you to conduct activities to achieve your goal.
- Social Networking Features Most learners will be already here. Question is if you go there what for? Some RTOs have delivered there, others marketed there. RTOs can use social media as a parallel form of communication with learners for example sharing news from the sector, training opportunities, jobs etc. Consider introducing learners to LinkedIn.

- Who you are
- On LinkedIn, the people who are part of your network are called your "connections." Unlike other social networks, Connections imply that you know the person well or that they're a trusted business contact.
- Streams are status updates from your connections.
- Facebook is a social network for connecting people with those around them – friends, family, coworkers, or simply others with similar interests. Facebook started in 2004 as a closed community for college students (requiring users to sign up with a valid university email address) but has since expanded beyond that to schools, corporations, and any user across the world. Facebook allows users to connect and share information in a variety of ways. Users must register before using the site, after which they may create a personal profile, add other users as friends, and exchange messages, including automatic notifications when they update their profile. Additionally, users may join common-interest user groups, organized by workplace, school or college, or other characteristics, and categorize their friends into lists such as "People From Work" or "Close Friends". Facebook is a tool for connecting people with those around them.
- Connect with people with whom you have worked or done business, or generally people with similar interests or work in your industry. Invite thought leaders in your industry to connect so that you might establish a relationship with them and, eventually, gain access to their network. Find Meaningful Contacts Start with people you know. First reach out to friends, colleagues, relatives and business contacts as this will help you build the first layer of your network. Find people by company. Search under the “Companies” tab so you can start looking for employees that are working in your industry. You can use this method of search to find the contacts for the types of companies your business is trying to target. Update your status often. Your status appears on your profile and in the LinkedIn Network Updates email to your connections. Thus, others may take notice of what you are working on and decide to connect or click through on links in your status.

- LinkedIn groups give you a great opportunity to reach and engage potential customers online. However, there are still a lot of industries or groups of professionals not yet represented in LinkedIn groups. Tips for Promoting a LinkedIn Group Invite coworkers, past colleagues, and customers to join and start discussions. Leverage your existing network to get your group started. After all, who wants to join a group with no members? Promote the group on your website, blog, email newsletter, and social media networks. Make sure people know that you have a group and how to join. Invite key industry experts to join and engage. If there are some heavy-hitters in your industry, invite them to engage with the community. Cross-market to related groups that you manage on different social media networks. Create a similar group or Page on Facebook and invite members of each network to join the group on the other network. Integrate LinkedIn into all of your marketing efforts. Every time you do a webinar or go to a conference, notify your group and invite those you meet to join the group as well. Add discussions, news and jobs. The more opportunities for interaction you add to your group, the more valuable your group will be to the community. All of these features are standard for LinkedIn groups.

- Pages allow real organizations, businesses, celebrities and brands to communicate broadly with people who like them. Pages may only be created and managed by official representatives. You’d use a Page to promote your business Groups provide a closed space for small groups of people to communicate about shared interests. Groups can be created by anyone. You’d use a Group to promote your training Pages Privacy:Page information and posts are public and generally available to everyone on Facebook. Audience: Anyone can like a Page to become connected with it and get news feed updates. There is no limit to how many people can like a Page. Communication: Page admins can share posts under the Page’s name. Page posts appear in the news feeds of people who like the Page and their friends. Page admins can also create customized apps for their Pages and check Page Insights to track the Page’s growth and activity. Groups Privacy: In addition to an open setting, more privacy settings are available for groups. In secret and closed groups, posts are only visible to group members. Audience: Group members must be approved or added by other members. When a group reaches a certain size, some features are limited. The most useful groups tend to be the ones you create with small groups of people you know. Communication: In groups, members receive notifications by default when any member posts in the group. Group members can participate in chats, upload photos to shared albums, collaborate on group docs and invite members who are friends to group events. Links
- It is easier to think of Elearning as a suite of Blended delivery choices available to RTOS: These modes can be any mix of face to face and either or a combination of online self paced, facilitated or group work sessions. Students participate in both traditional face to face classes and virtual classes such as online tutorials or discussion forum activities. Face to Face – Trainers and learners participate in online activities or resources during face to face sessions. Flexible, Self Paced Trainer or computer assessed – Learner works through prepared learning content that is assessed as they progress. Access to trainer generally for support or higher level assessment task feedback. Facilitated online – learning is conducted entirely online through course material provision provided through a Learner Management System and online activities provided though either virtual classroom tutorials or discussion forums. Not such an attractive model for RTOs as it does not attract Government funding incentives for training placements. Informal networks based on knowledge sharing (also known as social learning) – “The revolution that is social media means that now everyone can have access to the Social Web and a range of services and applications to support their own as well as their team’s learning, performance and productivity. “ Jane Hart.
- For each course we can determine the best mix of delivery modes according to: Infrastructure available to deliver in each mode Capability of our organisation and our learners to teach and learn in each mode Strategic choices about how to package courses for blended learning The types of content we will need to delivery Learning activities Assessment methods and potential for assessment submission.
- Examples Benefits Learners are already in the space. No need for deploying LMS or upskilling learners RTOs can own multiple Groups, control who has access and administration. Timeline provides ongoing evidence for auditors Learners profiles helped evidence of identity.
- Link to assessment Base on participants sharing experiences & prior knowledge Application to workplace or experience Make pre readings short Mix of problems, case studies, reflections Commenting/Building on postings Use to demonstrate employability skills
- Don’t over intervene Weave posts rather than answer Add value with extra links Share your experiences in relation to posts Work with good posters Contact lurkers for involvement Give participants responsibility for post topics Photo Credit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/51035555243@N01/2259661672/

- Webtour http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iQLkt5CG8I A good example of a social media policy is from the Victorian Department of Justice http://www.justice.vic.gov.au/home/about+us/our+values+and+behaviours/social+media+policy/ Best Practices This section covers anyone who is posting for RTO site in an official capacity. Give your post some thought prior to posting: Always be aware of the fact that there is no privacy on the Internet. Once you post something, in most cases you cannot erase it – posts can be forwarded quickly and proliferate throughout the Intranet in a matter of moments and can stay on the Internet for years. They can also be printed, copied or saved to personal computers. Think twice before posting something that may be controversial or lead to heightened emotions. Your post may reflect badly on the association and the membership. Use common sense: Avoid posting anything that would reflect negatively on the RTO or embarrass the association. This can include posts about sexual situations, off-color humor, racial or ethnic slurs, drug and alcohol use, political statements, personal insults, or anything that would generally be considered unacceptable in the workplace. Check your facts first: Always make sure what you post is factually correct. If you are unsure – don’t post! Make sure that you review your post for spelling and grammar as well. Respect is key: Realize that comments and posts on a social media site often can be heated and involve conflicting ideas and viewpoints. Always respect your audience and think carefully about how your respond. Know your audience: Consider when posting who will be your reader. It may not be just RTO staff members, but other trainers, the public, industry figures, partners, competing organizations, the media, and more. Make sure that whatever you post does not alienate or provoke any of these groups and damage the RTO’s reputation Personal web sites: If you are posting on your own personal site, please make sure you clearly state that your views are your own and do not necessarily represent the views of the RTO Photos and videos: Do not post any photos or videos that you do not have permission to post.
