TikTok is the fastest growing social media platform. So how could we use it in our own learning ecosystems? The TikTok app provides many social learning options that can be administered in an engaging and safe manner. Join us to learn the basics of how the app functions and then divide into small groups to build your own TikTok videos together and share your creations with the group. Download the app to your phone and prepare to have some fun learning about the social learning magic of TikTok.

In this hands-on session, you'll learn how the TikTok app is being used by early adopters to provide and curate active learning experiences for learners in an interactive video-based learning social media environment. You'll start by exploring examples of how to use the duet option to inspire people to create a duet TikTok passively meeting learning objectives. You'll then divide into groups to create one of three types of TikTok videos, and post the these videos to the group TikTok channel. The three TikToks video projects will include:

1. A duet asking a group to form and present the lyrics to a tune provided by the facilitator
2. A duet mimicking the actions in a facilitator TikTok to show application of an activity
3. 3A critical thinking activity responding to an evidence-evidence based opinion piece provided by the facilitator.

Then we'll discuss the experience and break down how everyone could use these approaches in their own learning programs. By the end of this session you'll know the basics of how TikTok can become a way to include active learning in an asynchronous social learning environment.
