comes to the ga-zillion social media apps streaming from device to device. No,
I am just a fish in this digital sea fighting the current stream of what we
call social media communication.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">My mission: to try out a new app. Not a mission I chose to
accept but was more a requirement taking me out of my comfort zone. The zone of
email, text, and candy crush which is the extent of my social media expertise.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><o:p></o:p></p><p style="text-align: left;">Diving into a plethora of apps to choose from, I stumble
across the ones promising to help me learn a completely new language in three
easy steps. Well, maybe not that easy, but easy promises none the less. I
choose Duolingo. Why? Because the logo was cute.</p><div style="text-align: left;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD4OrRPI_TMzXyTmVVmJelY_XJzXwKiwUpjpmNSKNHX8u99Fflq2TbptNH66Php7rzoEvVo9DJpuJ-0Y79uap6UZuTNp55vqnDsf5amqyNPVhIObYw18j-Ft2TNUQYw-lkEKHQ2om8kG9j/" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Duolingo Logo" data-original-height="158" data-original-width="230" height="153" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD4OrRPI_TMzXyTmVVmJelY_XJzXwKiwUpjpmNSKNHX8u99Fflq2TbptNH66Php7rzoEvVo9DJpuJ-0Y79uap6UZuTNp55vqnDsf5amqyNPVhIObYw18j-Ft2TNUQYw-lkEKHQ2om8kG9j/w222-h153/image.png" width="222" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Figure 1</td></tr></tbody></table><p class="MsoNormal">Let's get started. I only have a few weeks to figure this
out. The app opens for me to decide what language I would like to
learn. I admit the opportunity to learn uncommon languages is nice. I think
this option is great for those planning a business trip or dream vacation.
Besides the typical language learning offers you would see, like Spanish,
French, German, there are some that surprised me. Swahili, Navajo, and even
Yiddish (about to be launched)! Interesting.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, after perusing through the over 35 possible
choices, I chose Scottish Gaelic. It seemed to be the right fit for me seeing
as how I am half Scottish.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A few questions for data collection (how I heard about, and
why I am using it) then I choose my daily goal. Regular option. Click.
Beginner. Click.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Immediately I am tasked with choosing a picture of a boy
from a list of 3 (girl, boy, cat) all with the Gaelic name under each. A lovely
voice pronounces the Gaelic word for boy, <i>balach</i>. I repeat. Check my
answer, and yay for me. I got it right. <o:p></o:p></p><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikMQcQH8gvC2tLDvrutUf2DHubesMbtygCP_aUFbNZ0mK4HYIrhg5wqkkDvr7vsDIouCPFBUAi3-rq8D0AfubT-E48nuerjHIqI3kW4yVfMD4en9qeNTzeri-w3zuVYQg_c7Vduv9UUBkZ/" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Screenshot from Duolingo" data-original-height="195" data-original-width="195" height="184" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikMQcQH8gvC2tLDvrutUf2DHubesMbtygCP_aUFbNZ0mK4HYIrhg5wqkkDvr7vsDIouCPFBUAi3-rq8D0AfubT-E48nuerjHIqI3kW4yVfMD4en9qeNTzeri-w3zuVYQg_c7Vduv9UUBkZ/w184-h184/image.png" width="184" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Figure 2</td></tr></tbody></table><p class="MsoNormal">Two questions later, I am "writing" a phrase
similar to early elementary readings of "See Jane Run". I click the
speak icon a few times to hear the phrase in Gaelic and then make my choices
from the list below. Cat and boy. Correct.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My sixth question is all on my own. Nailed it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Daily goals are measured in XP (experience points). You get
so many for completing tasks and bonuses. You have to keep the streak going
each day or you may have a reset.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After creating a profile (name optional), you will land on
your home page which resembles a type of vertical "tree" of phases

It is
considered one of the best FREE apps for learning a language according to PC
Magazine. "Unique features and a clear structure make it a reliable place
to learn new languages" (Duffy, 2020).<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">It is multi-faceted. Not only is it designed for
individuals, but it also has been used by homeschool groups and classroom
instructors. Common Sense Education has a five-star rating based on the reviews
of educators. The overall consensus is that Duolingo is a "rigorous,
appealing tool for supporting language instruction at all levels" (Bindel,
2021).</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8r7168hbA3KKNk1aauRffhE83sE6OjHnSlKrrXc7QcZsgdWwB5ggklppxhUrSmBpVF4wfcGdiPkdHNow5NlWTo1YZXUaz_ANiddBcHvoGhTrzXHTdfDtjlGWNj_XIS8bORwMm3mAd_7kk/" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Student raising hand" data-original-height="202" data-original-width="196" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8r7168hbA3KKNk1aauRffhE83sE6OjHnSlKrrXc7QcZsgdWwB5ggklppxhUrSmBpVF4wfcGdiPkdHNow5NlWTo1YZXUaz_ANiddBcHvoGhTrzXHTdfDtjlGWNj_XIS8bORwMm3mAd_7kk/" width="233" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Figure 4</td></tr></tbody></table><p></p><p class="MsoNormal">According to Duolingo, they truly believe anyone can learn a
language using this app. Their design was created to imitate more of a game
platform rather than textbook learning platforms because, like most would
agree, having fun while learning is a good idea.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Duolingo's mission is simple. Personalize education, make
learning fun, and be universally accessible. The research behind their learning
platform is accessible from the website. Publications and data are within reach
to read and see for yourself.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Although I may not speak fluent Gaelic at this time, I found
the thought of learning using this app to be quite enjoyable. Of course, I need
to be more committed to applying the app every day. That is where I found it to
be tricky. Without reminders, which you choose to allow or block, it is
difficult to truly get all the benefits of learning a language.</p><p class="MsoNormal">I can definitely see the success Duolingo may have in a
classroom or homeschool setting, or with someone who is learning a language for
necessity- work or a trip to a foreign land. For me, because I am not invested
in it, it was not grabbing my attention. The idea was there, but my lack of
commitment was not.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><i>Kelly Qualls is a senior Communication Studies major at

It’s chaos. That’s exactly how founder of Goodnotes, Steven Chan, felt while studying math in Australia. </div><div><br /></div><div><div><b>Where It All Began</b></div><div>When the iPad was released in 2010, Chan saw this as an opportunity to solve the frustration of regularly losing his notes. He thought what if he could use this new iPad invention to take digital notes, where he could easily make changes and then digitally save them. After researching different apps and evaluating their features, Chan decided none fit his needs and therefore would create his own. </div><div><br /></div><div>A year later in 2011, Goodnotes was released by company Time Base Technology. With minimal promoting, word-of-mouth by current users pushed a steady increase in downloads, and since the launch of the Apple Pencil in 2015, the number of users has increased exponentially. </div><div><br /></div><div>Fast forward to 2021, there are millions of monthly users, 2 office locations in Hong Kong, which remains as the app's home office, and London, with a team of 34 members, and localization of 13+ languages.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmzXN7jiAxE5CNPUgjPqj8QRiYVbZbMJG9DiEUIZ3SVahgMqa2ncF68J6gRmNdVXX2uIfFdDJ53IGt9WRtq6qNn7R8WXxkN0NO1yTWx78-qxzmRRibK_Wzgck1vW0zYPifg6wyl6Zt0OH5/s1450/Goodnotes.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Screen shot of Goodnotes" border="0" data-original-height="879" data-original-width="1450" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmzXN7jiAxE5CNPUgjPqj8QRiYVbZbMJG9DiEUIZ3SVahgMqa2ncF68J6gRmNdVXX2uIfFdDJ53IGt9WRtq6qNn7R8WXxkN0NO1yTWx78-qxzmRRibK_Wzgck1vW0zYPifg6wyl6Zt0OH5/w320-h194/Goodnotes.png" width="320" /></a></div><div><b>Highlighted Features</b></div><div><br /></div><div><i>Search your Handwriting:</i> Search any key word to find every place it appears in any of your notes in your library – written or typed. With new innovative handwriting recognition software, you can find anything you have saved quickly and efficiently. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>Annotate PDFs and PPTs: </i>Freely edit and annotate PDFs and PowerPoints without having to change the typed text – it’s perfect for quickly signing any documents, writing in the margins on lecture slides, or highlighting important facts in an article. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>Organize your Notes your Way: </i>You have the ability to build as many folders and subfolders needed, and guaranteed that no matter how many notes, PDFs, and files you have, they can be easily found.</div><div><br /></div><div><i>Personalize your Notebooks:</i> There is an assortment of paper templates including graph paper, dotted for bullet journaling, and standard lined paper, as well as already crafted weekly and monthly planners. It is also simple to add your own custom templates or import bought templates from notebook creators via Etsy. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>QuickNote - Instant Notes: </i>This feature allows you to first take notes and create a notebook later. With a simple double tap, you have a black page; jot down that grocery list, a quick thought or that phone number you need for later.</div><div><br /></div><div><i>Open Documents Side by Side: </i>This feature makes multi-tasking the easiest it’s ever been with the capability to read an article on one side of the screen and take notes on the other. Or to simply drag and drop material from one page to another. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>Access your Notes on the Mac: </i>With the Goodnotes app you can download the Mac version at no extra cost. With the Mac app you can always view any of your notebooks from wherever you are. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>Easily Share your Notes: </i>With the capability to share your documents with the given shareable link, you can work on the same notebooks with multiple people. This makes collaborations easy and efficient.</div><div><br /></div><div><i>All your Notes, Always with You: </i>Goodnotes is compatible with all Apple products and has an iCloud sync feature, making easy access to all of your notebooks at any time. </div></div><div><br /></div><div><div>Other great features that are included are drag and drop support, flexible scrolling direction, PDF hyperlinks, document tabs, pen up mode, share and export, import, image tool, text box tool, zoom window, lasso tool, and shape tool. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Positives and Negatives</b></div><div>After doing research and virtually speaking with other Goodnotes users, I have found nothing but positive reviews of the app. As always, technical difficulties will arise, but seeing as though the developing company and the team of Goodnotes employees have a positive working relationship, I see nothing but continued growth for the app. </div><div><br /></div><div>While I found nothing but positive things about the app, the one downfall is that this app is exclusive to Apple product users and is going to cost you initially $7.99 for the download. While you don’t have to pay for the downloads to other devices sharing an iCloud domain, the price may deter users. Especially with free competitors like Microsoft OneNote and the numerous Google platforms combined with Google Drive. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Should You Use Goodnotes?</b></div><div>Let’s face it, as the world of technology continues to improve, the more the use of paper goods like loose-leaf paper, textbooks, newspapers and encyclopedias is going to decrease. This app takes a huge leap into the future of note taking and to top it off it is super user friendly. I would highly suggest Goodnotes to students, but also to professionals who need to keep an easy to access schedule, or professionals who are always needing a way to keep their ideas readily accessible. It also removes the need to carry paper notebooks and planners around. </div><div><br /></div><div>After the fast download, it takes no time to learn the way around the app and features you can utilize. And if you still don’t understand exactly how to do something, Goodnotes has a Blog with numerous articles that could answer your question, and don’t forget our trusty old friend Youtube and even TikTok. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Where to Find Goodnotes 5?</b></div><div>Access Goodnotes 5 through its website (https://www.goodnotes.com), @goodnotes.app on Instagram and Twitter, or check the Apple store on your device.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>About the Author: </b>Robin Hicks is a Senior Public Relations and Event Management major at Tarleton State University. </div><div><br /></div><div>The Texas Social Media Research Institute (TSMRI) is a group of faculty, staff, and students at Tarleton State University with a mission of conducting social media research; sharing social media best practices; and providing social media education for students, non-profit organizations, state agencies, school districts, and higher education institutions.</div></div>

The <i><a href="http://thejsms.org/index.php/TSMRI">Journal of Social Media in Society</a></i> is excited to announce a special issue -- Contemporary Perspectives: Social Media and Enterprise Engagement Background.<br />
<br />
For decades, business has been concerned about employee engagement, marketing departments have been concerned about customer engagement, and universities have been concerned about student engagement. A new approach has been introduced that looks at engagement as a process, independent of the particular audience. Enterprise Engagement is a formal business process that helps achieve organizational goals and objectives by proactively involving all of the people who can contribute to the organization’s success (Bolger & Schweyer, Enterprise Engagement and ISO Standards, 2017).<br />
<br />
<b>Objectives of this Special Issue</b><br />
The objective of this special issue is to contribute to the body of knowledge in both social media (SM) and the exciting new area of management called Enterprise Engagement, or Quality People Management, by examining the intersection of these two fields of study. A second objective is to investigate ways social media can be used to provide more meaningful and tangible outcomes to organizations by use or integration of social media in organizational processes that will enhance employee, customer, supplier, and vendor engagement.<br />
<br />
<b>Scope of the Journal</b><br />
<i><a href="http://thejsms.org/index.php/TSMRI">The Journal of Social Media in Society</a></i> is blind peer-reviewed, open-access, online journal that accepts scholarly articles and book reviews. The journal is devoted to scholarship and commentary on social media and its impact on society. The objective of JSMS is to advance the study of social media with current literature based on theory, research and practice from all methodological frameworks.<br />
<br />
<b>Recommended Topics</b><br />
This special issue is looking for empirical studies that offer insight into and the impact of social media on the various elements of quality people management. Preference will be given to those manuscripts that provide specific and tangible application of the results to the field. Topics include, but are not limited to, the impact on or use of SM with regard to the following (from <a href="http://www.theicee.org/" target="_blank">www.theicee.org</a>, retrieved December 2017):<br />
• Practices that continually aligns business activities with customer needs.<br />
• Communications that connect the entire organization to values, goals and objectives.<br />
• Recruitment to ensure the selection of people appropriate to their function.<br />
• Engagement strategically implemented so that people feel committed to continuous improvement and the culture in the organization.<br />
• Teamwork and collaboration so that teams function effectively and efficiently.<br />
• Practices that involve and inspire employees.<br />
• Building creativity and innovation into the culture and rewards system.<br />
• Recognition and rewards strategically used to foster involvement.<br />
• Networking within all parts of organizations to foster alignment, trust, and collaboration.<br />
• Work environments that foster proactive communication, participation, and effectiveness.<br />
• Measures of overall engagement, employee engagement, customer and vendor engagement.<br />
<br />
