Branding Insights From a Journalist - Storyful - by Meredith
I’m a journalist, but over the past three months I’ve transformed into a Twitter branding expert. When approaching the topic of branding on Twitter, I started from square one and honestly did not even know what a brand was, much less how to develop one on Twitter. If this describes you, you’re on the right website. With the help of experts in the field, I’ve compiled a one stop shop for learning how to brand on Twitter.

Teaching Students to Become Curators of Ideas: The Curation Project
As part of the social media class, my students are required to set up a network of online mentors using social media tools. They have to identify experts in their field and connect with them in order to build a personal learning network (PLN). One of the goals of the PLN is to connect them to resources they might not have otherwise discovered. In other words, their PLN is designed to help them discover valuable information through social search rather than regular search (i.e. a Google search). It’s designed to bring information and resources to them that have been vetted by other Internet users, not just an algorithm. This semester, I asked my students to “curate” that information the way a museum curator would curate an art exhibit. I told them they would need to comb through the resources received through their PLN to discover the significant and relevant, bundle those ideas together, contextualize them for their audience, repackage them and share them through a social media platform.
