Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

Mary Joyce used a remix of the Social Media Game that I created with David Wilcox back in 2007 and has subsequently been used by many other nonprofit technology trainers. It was particularly rewarding to see instructional techniques (the social media game ) that I had developed and been using since 2007 used by someone else.

On New Year’s Day, I heard a story on NPR about some research on instructional techniques used by many college professors – the lecture and how it is less effective in an age information abundance. It’s more fun to teach this way and more fun to learn this. Content Delivery Is Not Learning.

In this post, I’m sharing my slides , resources , and practical engagement tips with a higher purpose. Asking for feedback about how to improve the school experience is also a good technique, as used in the example above is from URJ Camp Kalsman. Fun, Games, and Giveaways! Games are even more engaging.

It marked the start of a six month peer learning exchange where I, along with colleague Stephanie Rudat will work remotely with grantees as they implement an action learning project to put techniques into practice and facilitate organizational change from the inside out.

You can view and download all the slides here. I loved the session presented by Josh Gutwill (Exploratorium), Julie Charles (SFMOMA), and Tsivia Cohen (Chicago Children's Museum) on research-based mediation techniques. They are meant to teach ways of learning and processing information, not to solicit specific content.
