Homework 03
Facebook Class Announcement Pages
Deadline to sign up - see COURSE CALENDAR - This semester we will use the Face book Page for course announcements. Sign up for the class face book PAGE - a Face book PAGE is different from a FACE BOOK group -when I see you as a Fan of the site you will receive your grade . If you sign up with an alias which is not your name them email me what alias you are using.

You will probably see students who took the course before and this may help you to get an idea of how much "interesting" SOWK 300 can be!
Blackboard and Facebook Page for Course Information
We will be using Blackboard and Facebook Pages this semester Blackboard is used to check your grades, submit assignments and participate in the online component of the course.
All notices, class cancellations and supplemental materials, discussion boards and other important information for this class will be available on Blackboard and a Facebook PAGE.
I am adding the Facebook PAGE this semester since many students report that they check facebook more than their email! I will not e-mail you every time something important is posted to Blackboard/Facebook. I will often post things a day or two before a class, so the best practice is to check BLACKBOARD AND the FACEBOOK PAGE daily. Participation and discussion are important components of the learning process, I strongly encourage you to get involved in the Blackboard Discussion Board area and/or the Facebook PAGE.
if you have a course related question, please post it on the appropriate “thread” in the Discussion Board section of Blackboard or the Facebook PAGE Discussions.
To join the SOCIAL WORK 300 Facebook PAGE go to the link below (this link is also in Blackboard) and become a Fan.

About Facebook Pages
‘Facebook Pages’ can be created for any entity such as a club, youth council, youth project etc. Unlike groups which have ‘members’, and which are only visible to logged in Facebook users, most of a ‘Facebook Page’ can be visible on the wider internet to those without a Facebook account, and have ‘fans’.
Facebook Pages have two walls, one of what the Page owner writes, and one just for fans to write their own messages. Like a normal Facebook profile, Pages have tabs that uncover more information.

Being a fan of SOWK300 on facebook has helped a great deal because I'm always aware of alerts and changes being mad with the assignments because I check my facebook page quite frequently. As a matter of fact if it wasn't for Sowk300 being on facebook I wouldn't know alot of events and changes that occur in this course. I believeing social networking is one of the best man made inventions.
ReplyDeleteBeing a fan of Social Work 300 is an advantage because I know personally I get on facebook multiple times a day and I will just check the page frequently
ReplyDeleteWith the link to become a fan of Social work 300 I know I will be up to date and alert to the changes and announcements in class. Very helpful and techno savvy.
ReplyDeleteWhat I like most about this assignment is that it involved a network site that I use everyday.
ReplyDeleteThe assignment was very clear, and i find it useful. I am on facebook almost everyday, and now i can check on updates for my class.
ReplyDeleteTHIS ASSIGNMENT WAS EXTEREMLY HELPFUL BECAUSE I HAVE FACEBOOK ANNOUCEMENTS SENT DIRECTLY TO MY PHONE SO I KNOW FOR SURE I WILL RECIEVE ALL UPDATES
ReplyDeleteI had alot of fun with this assignment, since i do spend alot of time on facebook i feel it helpful to also beable to check on things that are going on in my class. This assignment was easy to do and i did not have any problems doing it.
ReplyDeletethat was fun i learned alot now i can check sowk announcements when im on facebook. the directions were clear and simple
ReplyDeleteI seem to check facebook numerous times of the day so by becoming a fan it would be much more convenient and can also get updates sent to your phone as soon as its posted..
ReplyDeleteI like the fact that this class is taking advantage of all the popular sites that young adults currently use. I personally login in to my facebook when I get bored. Now that my class will be somewhat centered around this networking site, I will have to become a "Facebook Freak.... for SOKW 300" :-0 LOL!
ReplyDeleteBeing a fan of Social Work 300 on facebook gives me a great advantage with my assignments and updates for this class
ReplyDeleteWhoop whoop!!!! I am now a fan! I love the fact that this page is up in the SOWK 300 announcements page in Blackboard.. This is super helpful!
ReplyDeleteI still hava a lot of learning to do... I'm new on facebook
ReplyDeleteI'm glad announcements are on facebook its a site that I check everyday.
ReplyDeletebecoming a fan of sowk on facebook should help me meet all deadlines
ReplyDeletethis assignment was easy to do, but something i didn't really want to do because i have always been against face book. i see that it's a grade so i did it and it's very helpful for the class so that's exactly why I'm not adding anyone because i know I'm not going to get addicted LoL :-) because when this class is over the page will be deleted.
ReplyDeleteI didnt know i was a fan of Social Work now but hey they assignment was very understandable!
ReplyDeleteI am happy that SOWK 300 have a page because I get on facebook daily, and sometimes more then three times. I am also in a habit of checking my email regularly now because I have other things that require me to check it daily.
