Rezensionen
'This is an extremely useful publication that fills several gaps in current scholarly teaching and research. Firstly it provides students with a rationale for, and a means of, managing their research tasks in transformative ways, using social media as learning, researching and communicating assets. In this domain, it is both a launching pad and a handbook, easy to engage with and helpful. Secondly, it provides students with some ways of managing up , of supporting their lecturers to make meaningful and appropriate use (and non-use) of social media in their teaching, assessing and communicating. Lastly it provides a rich theoretical rationale and backdrop to the purposes of using social media in scholarly education. Dr Poore has done an excellent job in providing a contemporary meaning to Dewey s conjoint activities . This work is for lecturers as well as their students.' Jim Dellit
