  • United Rompe Guitarras
    512-S11 AGOSTO 11, 2011 JOHN DEIGHTON LEORA KORNFELD United Rompe Guitarras El 8 de julio de 2009, United Airlines ofreció al músico profesional Dave Carroll 1.200 dólares en efectivo y 1.200 dólares en vales de vuelo para ‘arreglar’ una situación en la que su guitarra había sido dañada en el aeropuerto O’Hare de Chicago durante la transferencia de un avión a otro, a la vista de los pasajeros que estaban sentados en el avión. Carroll había dedicado 15 meses a buscar una compensación, pero el esfuerzo parecía haber alcanzado un punto muerto cuando una representante de servicio al cliente de United Airlines le dijo que la aerolínea había concluido que el daño era responsabilidad de Carroll y que ella consideraba el asunto concluido. Carroll replicó que en ese caso compondría tres canciones acerca de su experiencia y las publicaría en el sitio en la red para compartir videos, YouTube. La primera canción fue publicada el 6 de julio d 2009. Al mismo tiempo, escribió un blog detallando la experiencia y publicó el enlace al video en YouTube en su cuenta de Twitter. En tan sólo una semana el video había sido visto tres millones de veces y United Airlines había contactado a Carroll para ofrecer la compensación. Los medios en línea y fuera de línea ayudaron a propagar la historia. El 22 de julio de 2009, The Times of London escribió que “las nubes de tormenta de las malas relaciones públicas habían causado que el valor de las acciones de United Airlines sufrieran un desplome a mitad de vuelo y cayeron en un 10%, costando a los accionistas 180 millones de dólares.”i Cientos de reportes noticiosos repitieron la historia de cómo una sola queja de un cliente, mal manejada, gracias al poder de los medios sociales, había costado a la empresa 180 millones de dólares.

  • CAPSLE 2011: Electronic Communication and Social Media
    Electronic Communication and Social Media – the New Frontiers “There’s (Quite Probably) an App for That” …Or a Professional Advisory Ontario College of Teachers CAPSLE 2011 Source: “2010 Social Networking Map;” http://www.flowtown.com/blog/the-2010-social-networking-map. Electronic Communication and Social Media – the New Frontiers “There’s (Quite Probably) an App for That” …Or a Professional Advisory CAPSLE 2011 Overview The proliferation of social media and electronic communication in the past few years has compelled individuals, groups and organizations in all domains to consider their use and impact. Education is no exception. In this paper, we will provide a discussion of what social media and electronic communications are and how they are used as well as the general benefits and disadvantages associated with these forms of communication, with a specific focus on privacy implications. We will then turn our attention to how educators are using electronic communication and social media sites to communicate and why they may face particular problems. We will highlight the reasons the Ontario College of Teachers developed a professional advisory to guide teachers and provide an overview of its contents. What the Ontario College of Teachers is It is important to understand the mandate and role of the Ontario College of Teachers (the College) as a self-regulatory body in order to appreciate the College’s advice to members regarding the use of social media and electronic communication. The College is charged with the responsibility to license, govern and regulate the teaching profession in Ontario. It was established in May 1997 following the recommendation of the Royal Commission on Learning for increased public accountability and improved quality and co-ordination of pre-service and in-service teacher education programs.1 The College’s powers and duties are contained within its enabling legislation, the Ontario College of Teachers Act (the Act),2 the regulations under that Act and its bylaws.
