[Air-L] Deadline extended to June 15, 2009: Communication Pedagogy in the Age of Social Media

[Teresa M Harrison]

CALL FOR PAPERS:  Electronic Journal of Communication (EJC)
Communication Pedagogy in the Age of Social Media

Over the last few years, social media technologies such as blogs,
microblogs, digital videos, podcasts, wikis, and social networks have
seen a dramatic increase in adoption rates. Because they connect people
and facilitate the exchange of information and web content, social media
technologies not only provide a powerful new way to interact with one
another, they also present exciting new pedagogical opportunities. 

This special issue seeks to examine the pedagogical applications of
social media technologies, especially with regard to the communication
classroom. Examples of best practices in social media adoption in all
areas of communication education are welcome, as are case studies or
empirical research analyzing the effectiveness and/or effects of
incorporating social media technologies into the communication
classroom.

Deadline for completed manuscripts is June 15, 2009.  

Issue Editors:  Corinne Weisgerber, Ph.D. and Shannan H. Butler, Ph.D.
