Good Enough for the Prof

Interesting study from Pearson, the scholarly publishing company, that more professors are using social media than you might think.

As in, four out of five.

Get the whole story at the Chronicle, but to me, another vital pull quote:

Professors with more than 20 years of teaching experience use social media only slightly less than do their younger peers. (Mr. Seaman found a similar lack of age discrepancy in an earlier survey about faculty members and online education.)

It's not an age thing; it's a mind set.
