Did you know 82% of companies use content marketing to fuel their operations?

Content is king. It enables you to connect with the right audience and generate traction for your brand. However, for content to work its magic, you should be consistent in creating it.

This can be easier said than done, as content creation is an intricate and time-consuming process. So, it’s important that you come up with effective ways to meet your audience’s demands without having to overwhelm yourself. This is where content curation comes in.

Content curation is one of the most efficient tactics used by content marketers worldwide to get traction online. It’s the process of leveraging relevant third-party content and sharing it with your audience to keep them engaged.

Webjets seems to be an useful tool for teachers and students to organize lesson and projects that have to be developed in a team. It is now a trend to use this kind of materials since we are on the 21st century and it demands the use of this tools. However, it is a challenge in our country to work successfully on this platforms due to our reality, most of all, in public schools.

It would be awesome to bring different activities to enhance students and help on their learning process through digital tools, nevertheless, the digital devices available in public schools are limited and it is so occasional the time where we as teachers can make use of them up to the point that we expect.

For that reason, we have to take advantage of all the opportunities we have to develop the 21st century skills in the students, specially the one devoted to the use of technological tools.

Everyday, there are 4 million blog posts, 100,000 news articles and 500,000 hours of video published on the Internet. A wealth of information and knowledge. A wealth of information and knowledge that is lost for most companies, at least for the most part.

Lost?

Step 1: content curation
Not entirely. Thanks to content curation technology, the Web can now be filtered. With content curation tools and platforms such as Scoop.it (among others of course), we can use more or less sophisticated ways to filter this huge amount of content that is published daily to zoom in on what matters to us. Good content curation technology is essential. It saves people a huge amount of time looking for content to share for marketing purposes or information that helps their organization make better decisions. And perhaps as importantly, without these filters, we would just be able to search – not discover. We would still find answers to what we don’t know but we wouldn’t know what we don’t know.

But until recently, all the solutions we’ve offered to deal with information overload – ours included – have revolved around the same basic idea: more – or more sophisticated – filters.

This is interesting because it shows how far the concept of 'Curation' has come in the last 10 years. I don't remember much about it but I remember that in the early days of Blogger, perhaps even before Google bought it, they had a tool or bookmarklet or some little button that had certain curation abilities. My first blog was on Blogger and I remember using that tool.

Later, I maintained a Posterous blog for a couple of years...maybe more. I liked Posterous a lot and was very sad when they sold it (Posterous) to Yahoo and then about a year later those jerks at Yahoo closed it down. I thought Posterous was a very nice blog with just the right amount of features to get the job done without getting too technical.

Google has just introduced "Collections", for Google+, a new service which allows any Google+ user to group his posts by topic and to create public, shareable collections of his favorite links, articles, videos and images.

To use Google Collections, simply go to your G+ profile page and then select "Collections" on the drop down menu appearing on the top left part of the page.

"Each collection can be shared publicly, privately, or with a custom set of people. Once you create your first collection, your profile will display a new tab where other people can find and follow your collections."

You can either create new posts containing whatever type of content inside a collection, or assign an existing, published post to a collection you have just created.

You can create as many collections as you like.

Google+ Collections is available on the web and on Android (iOS coming later).

My comment: Google+ Collections adds opportunity for creating additional value to G+ users by letting interests drive community engagement. This is a feature that sooner or later any social network will offer.

Free to use.

Try it out now: https://plus.google.com/collections/welcome

Do you want to know if your content curation strategy is successful? If you’re a business owner or marketer, the obvious answer is “Yes!”

Content marketing is a general term for any article, video, email, or social media post made to attract leads and keep existing customers engaged.

People decide whether or not they like a company based on the content they produce. High-quality content will help turn first-time visitors into life-long customers, while a poor content marketing strategy can turn people away from your business.

7 Social Media Strategies Every Teacher Needs to Learn Today and Teach Tomorrow | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it

From www.brilliant-insane.com - October 26, 2016 12:16 PM

Beth Dichter's curator insight, June 29, 2015 10:20 PM

Today our students are online and often are not thinking about what they post, and the long-term impacts of their digital tattoo. In fact, teachers must also think about these same issues. This post looks at seven choices to consider:

* Think before you share (a message that Common Sense Media shares a 'think before you post' in a video for tweens and up that was put out by Flocabulary).

* Never respond in anger

* Understand the long term impact of your social shares

* Ask, "Why am I liking or retweeting this?"

* Avoid confrontation

* Try for the "Warm and Fuzzy" reward

* Change the world

Additional information is available in the post, and consider sharing this information with your students next year.

Filomena Gomes's curator insight, April 18, 2015 9:52 AM

Robin Good's insight:

Notwithstanding the viral content-marketing tam-tam keeps selling the idea of content curation as a miracle-shortcut to work less, produce more content and get all of the benefits that an online publisher would want to have, reality has quite a different shade.

To gain reader's attention trust and interest, it is evidently not enough to pull together a few interesting titles while adding a few lines of introductory text.

Unless your readers are not very interested themselves into the topic you cover, why would they take recomendations from someone who has not even had the time to fully go through his suggested resources?

Superficially picking apparently interesting content from titles or even automatically selecting content for others to read is like recommending movies or music records based on how much you like their trailers or their cover layouts.

Can that be useful beyond attracting some initial extra visibility?

How can one become a trusted information source if one does not thoroughly look and understand at what he is about to recommend?

This is why selling or even thinking the idea of using content curation as a time and money-saver is really non-sense.

Again, for some, this type of light content curation may work in attracting some extra visibility in the short-term, but it will be deleterious in the long one, as serious readers discover gradually that content being suggested has not even been read, let alone being summarized, highlighted or contextualized.

Content curation takes serious time.

A lot more than the one needed to create normal original content.

To curate content you need to:

Find good content, resources and references. Even if you have good tools, the value is in searching where everyone else is not looking. That takes time.

Read, verify and vet each potential resource, by taking the time needed to do this thoroughly.

Make sense of what that resource communicates or represents / offers and be able to synthesize it for non-experts who will read about it.

Synthesize and highlight the value of the chosen resource within the context of your interest area.

Enrich the resource with relevant references, and related links for those that will want to find out more about it.

Credit and attribute sources and contributors.

Preserve, classify and archive what you want to curate.

Share, distribute, promote the curated work you have produced. Creating it is not enough.

(While it is certainly possible to do a good curation job without doing exactly all of the tasks I have outlined above, I believe that it is ideal to try to do as many as these as possible, as each adds more value to the end result you will create.)

These are many more steps and activities than the ones required to create an original piece of content.

Curation is all about quality, insight and attention to details.

It is not about quantity, speed, saving time, producing more with less.

Robert Kisalama's curator insight, April 18, 2015 11:37 AM

truly Curation should not be merely aggregating different links without taking off time to reflect indeed it is very to end up like some one buying clothes impulsively only to realise you could have done without some of them.
