“…Many wanted to avoid mixing streams of conversations about work with other conversations about family, social activities, sports, politics, etc. This mixing of streams, defined by Marwick and boyd (2010) as context collapse, is described by Vitak (2012) as "the…”

Open educational practices (OEP) is a broad descriptor of practices that include the creation, use, and reuse of open educational resources (OER) as well as open pedagogies and open sharing of teaching practices. As compared with OER, there has been little empirical research on individual educators' use of OEP for teaching in higher education. This research study addresses that gap, exploring the digital and pedagogical strategies of a diverse group of university educators, focusing on whether, why, and how they use OEP for teaching. The study was conducted at one Irish university; semi-structured interviews were carried out with educators across multiple disciplines. Only a minority of educators used OEP. Using constructivist grounded theory, a model of the concept "Using OEP for teaching" was constructed showing four dimensions shared by open educators: balancing privacy and openness, developing digital literacies, valuing social learning, and challenging traditional teaching role expectations. The use of OEP by educators is complex, personal, and contextual; it is also continually negotiated. These findings suggest that research-informed policies and collaborative and critical approaches to openness are required to support staff, students, and learning in an increasingly complex higher education environment.

“…Research also focuses on receivers. For example, Vitak [19] discussed how individuals manage the scope of their networks in an effort to minimize fallout related to having multiple audiences [14], which highlights the difficulty communicating simultaneously with diverse audiences that may have differing expectations for how those individuals communicate.…”

“…We propose this novel finding might be partially explained by the existence of context collapse and the notion that a 'lowest-common denominator' effect occurs in the presence of multiple audiences with diverse standards (Marwick and Boyd, 2011;Vitak, 2012). Although largely 'Liking' a political party may be distant from an undesired social-self, for certain audiences this may not be the case and therefore inconspicuous is preferred.…”

“…The increased visibility of gift giving through SNS, caused by greater density in social ties, resulted in a reduction of gift purchase due to increased scrutiny and social surveillance (Shmargad and Watts, 2016). Importantly, conspicuous consumption on SNS largely occurs in the presence of 'context collapse', where interactions are viewed simultaneously by an imagined audience of multiple others with different expectations of a desired image (Marwick and Boyd, 2011;Vitak, 2012).…”

2 PurposeAcquiring 'Likes' for a political party or candidate's Facebook pages is important for political marketers. For consumers these 'Likes' are conspicuous, making their political affiliation visible to their network. Our study examines the roles of the undesired socialself and visibility (conspicuous vs. inconspicuous) in predicting consumers' intention to 'Like' political brands. We extend knowledge on the undesired social-self, transference of theory from general marketing to a political domain and provide practical advice for political marketers engaging social network sites. Design/methodology/approachWe gather data from two surveys run with Facebook using electorates in the run up to the UK 2015 and US 2016 elections (n = 1,205) on their intention to 'Like' political brands under different visibility conditions. FindingsData supports the theorized relationship of the undesired social-self with social anxiety intention to 'Like' when 'Liking' is conspicuous. However also indicates that all users -irrespective of proximity to the undesired social-self -prefer to 'Like' inconspicuously. 3 Research limitations/implicationThe research is limited by the generalizability of the specific context and the use of selfreport measures. Practical implicationsPolitical marketers should reconsider promoting conspicuous consumption for that which is more inconspicuous. OriginalityWe provide the first examination of the undesired social-self in driving behavior under different visibility conditions. Furthermore we challenge the extension of existing knowledge of the self-concept within political marketing, based on the 'norm' for consumers' to avoid disclosing political views publically.
