14Networking with professionalsOver the past six months since I started using twitter regularly, Ive come into contact with creative professionals from all over the country and beyond so when I leave University Ill be leaving with an in place network of contacts.Even with the ones who I follow but havent spoken to, I can find out about their jobs, who they talk to, the events/conferences they go to and so get a better perspective and what it takes to get a job like theirshttp://clarewells.wordpress.com/2013/04/30/arguing-for-the-positives-of-social-media/

Final Year Projects and the importance of getting your work out there!

Networks, Emergence and SerendipityLiving, breathing curriculum - LEARNING ECOSYSTEMLeave space in the course to allow for play, emergent curricula, serendipity and opportunity

As network involvement increases, so does the likelihood of ad hoc opportunities. Invite suggestions from learners, encourage them to use THEIR networks

These are personal tools, increasingly accessed on personal devices. Be open and encourage learners to bring their ideas/practices/networks on board!48
