Worship Without Barriers, C. Niigel Porter

UNLV Transfer Student Seminar Poster (COE 303)

Issue: Church accessibility and digital inclusion.

Controversy: Does livestreaming strengthen or weaken spiritual community

Viewpoint 1: Barna Group (2020) – Found that online church gives people more access, especially during and after the pandemic.

Viewpoint 2: Pew Research Center (2021) – Reports some worry that virtual worship reduces personal connection and long-term engagement.

Viewpoint 3: Campbell (2012) – Argues that digital religion is evolving and churches must balance tradition with technology.

My View (Graff & Birkenstein, 2021): Livestreaming is a ministry tool that helps include people who are sick, isolated, or unable to attend in person—it expands, not replaces, spiritual …

#Teachersoftiktok - From Hashtags To Habits: Social Media's Influence On Teacher Identity, Practice, And The Role Of Teacher Preparation Programs (Chapter From Exploration Of K-12 Teaching And Learning Teacher Educators), Martha A. Wilkins, Danielle Ligocki

Education Faculty Books/Book Chapters

Social media, particularly TikTok, has become a major influence on pre-service teachers (PSTs), shaping their professional identity, pedagogical expectations, and instructional decision-making. While TikTok offers networking and inspiration, its algorithm-driven content prioritizes entertainment over evidence-based pedagogy, reinforcing idealized, oversimplified, and commercialized portrayals of teaching. Many PSTs consume and apply TikTok-derived strategies without critical evaluation, contributing to the casualization and deprofessionalization of the profession. Ethical concerns, including student privacy, influencer-driven monetization, and digital professionalism, further complicate its role in teacher education. Grounded in Critical Media Literacy (CML) and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), this study argues for explicit media literacy training in …
