“I was wary about joining a circle of people that I did not know. On Facebook I always make sure that what I post or what I am tagged in will not be seen by people who I do not want to see it.”
“I learned a lot more about writing to the public. Before this I would have been less likely to express my views to a group of people online whereas now I would not have a problem in doing so.”
#studentvoice
“I did not like adding the LIT students because I have never met them.”
“By posting publicly it opened up our world to other academics or people who are just interested in the topic we are posting about. I don’t think anyone would have thought that the author of one of the works we were researching would get involved.”

“It gave me a chance to see everyone's opinions on these topics and give my own,a lot more interesting and refreshing than other assignments in our course.” “Changes my view of social networks just being used for mindless chatter. They can actually be useful for research and feedback if used correctly.”
#studentvoice
“I would recommend Google+ especially in universities because I had access to all this great reading in relation to technology that people had found, that I would probably never find on my own or read in a book in a library!”
“I did not find our assignments involving Google+ useful or interesting. If I wanted to learn about digital literacy, privacy, etc, I would do my own research on these topics and come to my own conclusions.”
Although as this was an assignment I felt like your posts were not only being graded by your lecturer but everyone in the circle too. Some people offered their opinion only to just get the assignment done and not to really engage in any conversation on the topic.

Reflection...
#studentvoice
“Through Google+ we were able to break down the geographical barrier between us and Clonmel in order to share ideas, thoughts and opinions with students we’ve never met before on a wide range of topical issues like privacy, digital literacy and social media.”
#studentvoice
“I enjoyed the whole collaboration with LIT, I found it interesting and enjoyable researching and reading all the various topics being discussed and thought the whole idea was good, although everything got a bit messy.”
