social networks

Social network
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not to be confused with social network services.
A social network is a social structure made of nodes (which are generally individuals or organizations) that are tied by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as values, visions, ideas, financial exchange, friendship, kinship, dislike, conflict or trade. The resulting graph-based structures are often very complex.
Social network analysis views social relationships in terms of nodes and ties. Nodes are the individual actors within the networks, and ties are the relationships between the actors. There can be many kinds of ties between the nodes. Research in a number of academic fields has shown that social networks operate on many levels, from families up to the level of nations, and play a critical role in determining the way problems are solved, organizations are run, and the degree to which individuals succeed in achieving their goals.
In its simplest form, a social network is a map of all of the relevant ties between the nodes being studied. The network can also be used to determine the social capital of individual actors. These concepts are often displayed in a social network diagram, where nodes are the points and ties are the lines.

En estas últimas clases se ha notado un avance en nuestro uso de las herramientas que nos brindan las redes para el desarrollo de las actividades pedagogicas. Hemos implementado el uso de un blog como herramienta de comunicacion de nuestras ideas a cerca de nuestras apreciaciones en el campo de las lenguas. Pienso que con esta forma de exprecion tan ágil y de facil propagación podemos compartir nuestros texto escritos a serca de los temas que nos competen.
