Web Open Issues

Role of Facebook and Other Social Media (Web 2.0)

The Communication Stakeholders Group led by Val Hale will be addressing Social Media protocol and procedures which is a discussion that was started by the now-defunct Web Advisory Council (merged in to Communication Stakeholders Group in early 2010).  Ray Walker has taken the lead in creating DRAFT Policy/Protocol documents although they have yet to be released. That said, here are the resources currently available at UVU on the topic:

A Wiki that describes social media tools and how they can be used at https://wikilearn.uvu.edu/webtools/Main_Page

A Web page that lists current known UVU presence in the social media arena at http://www.uvu.edu/visitors/social-media-directory/index.html

A list of current and pending Web Policies, Procedures, Protocols & Guidelines at http://www.uvu.edu/web/policies/index.html

Here are some external resources as well that may be useful for discussion of this topic:
