  1. My name is Rury Restu Afifah (2201413149) Email Rury.afifah@yahoo.com After watching American English Webinar season 1 entitled “Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting your Classroom Locally and Globally” with Eve Smith. I realize that I as an English education student will be having a responsibility to make my students being engaged in social media that they need in the future. We have to think of how we prepare students for a world when we are unsure of what it will be like? I think creativity and critical thinking is very important to teach in our students. One of the methods to improve students’ creativity and critical thinking is by using social media which is very exciting for them and relevant to their future such as Facebook, Edmodo, instagram and act. According to Don Topscott, social media is the new marketplace of the world, by using social media it means we are preparing our students to engage in global community. Not only creativity and critical thinking that the students learn through social media, but also practicing English language with correct grammar and enrich their vocabulary. Eve also give us the procedure to manage a class when we want to applied social media campaign project and I think it is very useful. Thank you.

  2. Hello...! My name is Ahmad Mubais. My email address is amoeba_its@yahoo.co.id. I really wonder to see American English Webinar discussed about "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting Your Classroom Local Globally." It very useful for student in distributing their ideas and creativity by using the social media as the tools to communicate each others. The American English Webinar lead the student to drain and encourage students positively in using those media. As we know that some media social is a crucial media that give all people all over the world to canalize comments by no control of the rules. As a teacher we have to be creatively using those media and make the students using the media to encourage and engage learning English language. This served students to develop in Learning English and give the details methods in order to raise up the students capabilities.
    Thank's.

  3. Hello! My name is Adya Noor Gistha. My e-mail address is adyanoorgistha@gmail.com. The title of the American English Webinar 1.1 "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting Your Classroom Locally and Globally" pull out my curiosity. I'm an English Literature student and I don't even want to be a teacher in the future, but I'm so curious how can I use social media as a tool for community engagement. It's because nowadays social media is being a one of "most have" things. As we know that the world needs all of the different kinds of minds to work together. So, to make something works we must combine many different kinds of mind, one of the tool to combine our different kinds of mind is social media. Even I don't want to be a teacher who teach in classroom, I also need a social media in my future job to engage connecting with my co-worker locally and globally. I really get the point of this webinar because Mrs. Eve delivered the webinar in clearly way. I hope I can apply her methods correctly and easily in the future. Can't wait for the next session of this webinar >< By the way, thanks a lot Mrs. Eve! ♥♥♥

I have watched the American English Webinar season 1 entitled “Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting your Classroom Locally and Globally” that delivered by Eve Smith. After watching the video I realize that as the teacher in the future we have to think critically and creatively to help the student developing their skill to prepare them self face the future. Meeting in the classroom is not enough to develop their skills. Using the social media to encourage their abilities for community engagement is a brilliant idea I think. Social media is new means of production and now almost the students use social media in their daily life. The students should have creative thinking because it is important for the future. even if we are not creative we should have creative thinkin. In the slide Eve asked to impact our community with meaningful project by doing social media campaign. It is very beneficial to develop student’s skill, educate, inpire and help.

  5. My name is Milatina Nurul Hasanah. My email address is milamilatina@yahoo.com i’m very glad to watch the American English Webinar season 1 entitled “Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting your Classroom Locally and Globally”. Well, as we know that social media has become a part of our lives. I also realize that everyday and everytime i always use more than one social media. i always check it everyday, something like instagram, path, line, bbm, etc. Of course, i absolutely agree with the discussion that delivered by Mrs.Eve that social modia is the new means of production,education needs to feed the spirit, the world needs all of the different kinds of minds to work together and social media as a tool for community engagement. Nowadays, in modern time, social media is very important, especially for education. But, there are so many thought that social media will only have a negative effect, actually not all of social media have a negative effect. It depends on how we use it. So, it’s very usefull discussion because this discussion lead the students to be positively using social media. And she also tell us that when we want to be a lecturer or teacher we have to use the creative methods in teaching students, and one of the methods is using social media which is very exciting for them. By using social media, the students should have creative thinking and it is very important for the future. So, it means that we are preparing our students to engage in global community. Mrs. Eve also give us the way to manage a class when we want to apply the social media project, so we can easily apply it in a classroom. It’s very usefull for us. Thankyou!

  6. Social Media as referred in the relationship among users, are rapidly growing types of digital media. They emerge in various forms to bring people together as communities: Blogs (e.g., WordPress), Social Networks (e.g., Facebook), Microblogs (e.g. Twitter), Wikis (e.g. Wikipedia), Video Podcasts, Discussion Forums, RSS Feeds, and Photo Sharing (e.g. Flickr) (2012 cited in GSA's Office of Citizen Services & Innovative Technologies) as examples. In Thailand, the Social Media have played a vital role for decades.

    The statistics show that about 20.6 million out of 66.7 million Thai people have access to the Internet (Neilson, 2011 cited in Report on the Digital Media Habits and Attitudes of Southeast Asian Consumers). Social Media has influenced teaching and learning English at present. Originated in the world of Social Networking, the Social Media has already been integrated into an informal education system for decades; i.e. teleconference and distance learning before it has evolved into a more sophisticated system, e-learning. And now after watching the video that is webinar I realize that as the teacher in the future has to think critically and creatively to help the student developing their skill. Sometimes meeting in the classroom is not enough to develop their skills. Using the social media to encourage their abilities and increase their knowledge for community engagement are a brilliant idea. The formal use of Social Media can be recognized as a combination of online and traditional classroom teaching as proposed by Schmidt and Brown (2004 cited in A Model to Integrate Online Teaching and Learning Tools into the Classroom. The Journal of Technology Studies.). They believe that such a combination could enhance the teaching and learning environment as well as technology literacy of both students and teachers. From the video it shows could understand that Mrs.Eve encouraged us (as an English Teacher) to open our mind to have a fun and creative teaching methods. For example, in the video, Mrs.Eve drove us to think about using social media which has been engaged in students' life as a tool for community engagement. Students having different abilities which makes them unique and attractive to be involved in also with the social media integrated as the new environment of learning, and also the role of the teachers is altered to be less controlled as Dalton (2009 cited in Teaching and Learning through Social Networks) implied from his research result that “teachers should change their role into ‘facilitator’ rather than the ‘giver-of-knowledge’ and promote more group work and relaxing learning environments”.

    In my opinion, so far webinar is one of the alternative of teaching and learning tool to engage students in classroom, as PresenterNet Publish in 2009 there are seven tips to conduct a great webinar better and this is a creative way to develop teaching and learning process. More research needs to be conducted and tracked down regarding the never-ending evolution of technology in terms of educational implications.

  7. My name is Sarah Jasmin Adeline. (22114140140) my email adress is sarahkazunari285@gmail.com. It's so true that now is the era of social media. Social Media itself actually being made to communicate with other people around the world. Around the world, can you imagine? That was awesome! So why not we use it for a better destiny?Like we can use social media as a media for telling our idea? We can critique and give an advise for a social problem. Example: we heard unfair judgement and we decide to make a facebook group to support the victim. And social media also can be a media for our creativity. We can post our short story and our poetry, and it can develop our writing skill and if we're luck we can have our writing being published, who know? After I saw this video, I want to write in my blog again. Because, it's been a long time my blog has been neglected by me.

Season 1 American English Webinar with the title "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting your Classroom Locally and Globally" is really inspiring for me. I am an English Literature student and I enjoy teaching very much. This webinar session encourages me to be a better teacher by using the social media as a learning source for students in order to enhance and develop their creativity. Social media can also be a good source to gain intelligence, which is the abitlity to acquire and apply knowledge and skills. Social media would be a great canvas where students can paint and draw their unique ideas that has been piled up in their minds by making a campaign to help others. "The creative adults is a child who survived". Creativity is essential in this life. To have a great future, we have to teach children about creative thinking so that they can enlighten their future by doing incredible things with such creativity.

  9. Hello! My name is Rohmatul Umma and I am a student of Semarang State University. My student number is 2211414049 and my e-mail address is umma.rohmatul20@gmail.com. I am very interested in the title of American English Webinar Season 1 which is "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement : Connecting your Classroom Locally and Globally". I am a Literature Student and I don't really interested in teaching but what makes me glad watching this webinar is because I am a social-media-holic. I like social media and i use it everytime, everyday, and everywhere. So, this webinar made me curious about how a social media can also be a good source to gain intelligence and connecting community locally and globally. I am a social media user but i don't even realize those wonderful advantages can be gained from a social media. I completely agree that social media can be a tool to make people be creative as well as to make a great campaign to help a society and wow! social media is just an amazing thing. Through social media, we can communicate and do help others with a greater community around the world and in a greater way. But sadly, many of social media users still do not realize about these great advantages. They just use it as a tool that can entertain them and a tool where they can throw out their personal feelings. They don't realize that those activities (tweeting, posting on facebook, instagram, blog) are ways in which they are learning to write, to be creative, to use language, to know another cultures and many more. They just like "Wow! So this whole time i have learned it all through my social media?". Well, I think this webinar session presented by Mrs. Eve do inspires me. People just have to make sure to watch this.

  10. this is my second command after i lost my comment before. my name is Nova Rifqi Farista my student number is 0203515093. my email address is Novapha2@yahoo.com. as a listener and audience of "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement : Connecting your Classroom Locally and Globally" on webinar, i realize that internet is important to make a new teaching learning process. so may social media in this world like facebook, twitter, instagram, path, and soon. but all of them are common and mainstream. as a teacher we should be think, and make a change. how we can make the student interest to study english. in fact, the student still think that English is disaster. In the digital era, almost the teacher uses the social media as theirs. Now, I want to show something extraordinary about the special media that student does not think that they are not studying. Clash of clans. Everyone like a game. But, in my opinion this game is a good media. Why? This is a commutative game. we can communicate to all the people around the world. It has a clan. Clan is feature to join room and connect to people. There are so many clan around the world. After we join the clan, we directly connect to the people. In the left side we can fine chat box. There, we can say what we want. From the chat box, our student can learn writing language. in my opinion, game is a fun media to learn English.

Firstly, I was so curious about what and how webinar is. After watching the first series of American English Webinar entitled "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement: Connecting Your Classroom Locally and Globally” presented by Eve Smith, I got an answer of my curiosity. It was so great. The topic raised is very interesting and useful for education field. If we see the reality that most of students have social media accounts. Perhaps, there are some people think that it is less important and just for wasting time, but actually it is not. It can be used for developing education as well. Social media is an easy and effective way in connecting our classroom locally and globally. Through social media, students are easy to express or write everything in their mind. Eve showed us thoroughly how social media enhancing students creativity and critical thinking. Besides, she told us that every teacher is able to create something creative as long as she or he is open-minded. I personally as a student of education program and an English teacher to be is demanded to be able to create interesting methods in teaching. Furthermore, the existence of social media facilitates us to create teaching methods attractively because almost all students know and can’t get rid of social media as they use every day or even every time. More and more I was so amazed at first series of American English Webinar because Eve explained and delivered her ideas beautifully. I’m waiting for the next series of webinar with other inspiring topics.

  16. Hi, My name Rajif Alif Ruansyah. I am really interested in watching American English Webinar seoson 1 entitle “ Social Media As a tool for community engagement : connecting your classroom locally and globally.” Nowdays social media has the important role in our daily activities. Perhaps we should ask “ How do social media affect learning?” we could not separate between media and learning. They have closed relationship. I think the social media gives much contribution in teaching and learning. Because education needs more development. It is not only about the theory, but also the aplication. Social media can be a stimulus to explore our idea and creativity. As an english teacher, I use Edmodo for my teaching media. It is verry helpful in submitting the students assignment. After watching the video Webinar, I am certain most of the teacher will develop their teaching method in order that the taching and laerning process will be more fun and attractive. It’s very inspiring.

This is a great seminar , it deals with very popular topic nowadays that's dealing with social media. Very good topic; Social Media as a tool for Community Engagement. I think all students have many accounts of any social media, so they can accept this kindly. What I've got from this, social media is not only for sharing our feelings but we can use it to communicate to the others. I mean here we can use it to communicate the good thing or share a campaign maybe consisting about good or kindness not only for having fun. I think that's all from me, I hope I can attend the other sequel of webinar. Thank you Mr. Rudi Hartono for showing this webinar to us.

  29. Hello Mr. Rudi. I am Rofiq Fuaidi, your students from magister degree class special two (0203515103). My email address is rofiq.mmh@gmail.com. I have been watching the video. In my opinion, as a teacher, we must use the interesting media for teaching and learning. Social media is such a prevalent part of modern society. So, we are beginning to take a different approach by introducing social media into the educational system itself. Social media has some benefits for education; Social media sites can increase student collaboration, encourage more participation, useful for homework help and Share resources quickly when using social media in the classroom.
    So, I concluded that Social media has a proponent of social constructivism, an aspect of social learning theory that discussed last week.
    I think learning in community is better than individually. In community, the students have the same interest and purpose. Those make them focus on the target in learning and learn deep about the material or skill. Thank you.

    My name is Yekti Utami Priyadiningrum (2211414019). I am your student of Paragraph-based Writing. My e-mail address is yektiutamip@gmail.com. I think the American English Webinar's title about "Social Media as a Tool for Community Engagement : Connecting Your Classroom Locally and Globally" is very interesting. Thank you for Mrs. Eve that give us some information about using social media for positive things, because I am a social media addict and I have some social media in my phone like BBM, line, instagram, facebook, twitter, path, askfm and edmodo. It also helps us to express our work, teaching and learning process (between teacher, student, and parent) through social media for example like edmodo. If we use social media for positive things, we also get some positive thing or more knowledge. Can't wait to watch the next inspiring and interesting topics from webinar.

    I am Linna Endah NW, a post graduate students of UNNES (0203515068).
    After watching this one of webinar video, I myself think that webinar is a new great way to teach our students. Internet nowadays is really close to our life, especially SMP and SMA students, as like social media, website, blog, youtube and many others.
    Meanwhile, if we are going to give this activities to our school students we have to consider many things, such as the fiber, access, materials/ topic to give, students' preference, etc.
    A new innovation technique would give much benefit if it is done considerebly. For me, it is a new challenge as a teacher to apply this new technique in my classroom.

  35. Hi, my name is Tri Okta Ervina (0203515087), I am really interested in the topic discussed which is about social media. In this globalization era, people need to share information, knowledge and action. Hence, it demands not only for people who are in the specific field but also for educational purposes. Social media is also a media for learning which is closely related with 21st learning. It can be used by teachers to teach students and also helps students to improve their knowledge and skills. If it is related to teach language, especially English, it can be done through posting project, composition or argument about an event in the students’ social media. It can be facebook, twitter, instagram, edmodo, blog etc. By posting it, everyone is able to assess their work. It is also more insight from others than only being assesed by their teacher. The use of social media can boost students’ motivation to be aware of their language when they post because everyone will see their work. It is a plus point of using social media in ELT. However, it also still have many challenges to do it. Hence, it is a homework for us as educators. 

Sometimes I upload my students activity on facebook for example, and they are eager to give comments or feedback. I also ask them to send their writing on their blog. This way, we can make our calssroom think globally.

Last week I watched American English Webinar season 1"Social Media as a Tool for Community" with Eve Smith. It is very useful for us as a student to study not only by book or discuss face to face. We can use some media sosial too. Like in Webinar last week. They mention some media sosial such as facebook, edmodo, twitter, instagram, blog, etc. It can use to discuss not only between class friend or lecturer and student but also all student in the world. We can share our ideas and it can improve our language skills. So far, we only know media sosial just a media to connect us with stranger or justto entertain us. If we use media sosial to study, I think it would be great. So, the American English Webinar that i watched its very useful and very good method to introduce us the new way to study. Thankyou :)

    Actually, it was my first time joining webinar and it was such a valuable experience since I got new and beneficial knowledge. In the first section, with the topic "Media as a Tool
    for Community Engagement: Connecting
    Your Classroom Locally and Globally", I got such inspiration in teaching the students in the future.
    Nowadays, people consider internet as a basic need. Internet has some advantages, such as we can get a lot of information, keep in touch with relatives, friends or people around the world. As the evolution of internet, people start to create some social media in order to fulfill their need. As a result, most of people now have more than one social media.
    This development of social media also create an opportunity in education field. By using social media, both teacher and students can communicate more frequent. Besides, the students can communicate with students from another part of earth so that they can get new friend and information or knowledge. In my opinion, using social media in teaching is such a brilliant idea because it makes learning easier.

    It was the first time webinar I've ever joined, actually. And I got some valuable knowledge after I watched the video entitled: "Media as a Tool for Engagement: Connecting Your Classroom Locally and Globally". People nowadays can not be separated from technology and I think mosr of people in the whole world in any ages have more than one social madia accounts. So that we can use social media as the media for learning activities because it makes the I interaction between the teacher and the students easier, for instance, when the teacher cannot attend the class, he/she can post the material or give assignments through class group in social media. Moreover, students can ask the teacher about the material they don't understand yet whenever and wherever as the internet is accessible. We can conduct the examination or online quiz through social media as well. It can be more effective because that kind of test doesn't use paper, so it's good for environment, and it's well programmed between the question and answer there won't be mistakes when the teacher correct the students' work. Besides that, students can explore the knowledge from any literature through the social media by themselves. So, the conclusion is, social media has many benefits if it's applied in learning activities for now and the future.

Many teachers from older generation are not tech-savvy. They tend to use outdated method and avoid new platform like social media. Second, internet connection to ensure capability of accessing for all. Our internet connection is not that reliable and might become an obstacle. While yes, technical difficulties may come up in implementing this, I hope that this method will encourage our Government to improve educational system.
