Editor's Notes
- A Network of Technical Assistance and Dissemination Centers funded by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP)
- We are all indebted to the years and years of service, leadership, and passion NICHCY’s long-time director Suzanne Ripley has contributed to this work.. Thank you Suzanne! Suzanne now directs a new project, Family Support Center on Disabilities: Knowledge & Involvement Network (call them KIN for short!) which offers a centralized resource on the full range of options available to individuals with disabilities and their families.http://familysupportclearinghouse.org/Pages/Home.aspx
- 2B. Conceptualize, design, and produce an electronic newsletterWe will invite NDC’s customers and networks to sign up for the e-newsletter and distribute it monthly to those who do; will increase its visibility and conduct targeted outreach by sending occasional editions (especially “Special Topics”) to specific audiences; will post the current edition on the Web site and maintain an online archive of past editions; will include easy-to-use feedback mechanisms by which users can share their reactions; and will utilize the Web site’s analytic tools (discussed above) to investigate use (and sharing) of this information.
- http://www.facebook.com/nichcyNDC/NICHCY maintains a fan page on Facebook and it has served us well in a number of important ways:By establishing a presence on the world’s largest social network, we increase our exposure to people who may not have known about our website and services – we’ve gone to where the users and potential users are already living and communicating with their networks of friends and colleagues.People can choose to become a “fan,” which allows them to show their appreciation and allegiance your work.When someone becomes a fan others in their network will be alerted to our work. In fact when we ask how people found our site in Facebook, a growing percentage mention that they had noticed a friend had first become a fan.While we’ve been able to track the volume of users to our website over the years, we never really have had the chance to interact with them or even see their faces!When we post content to our Facebook page, it automatically shows up on each of our fan’s page which means our information automatically goes to them, they don’t have to come to our page to see if there have been any updates. One Web 2.0 mantra to note: “Live where your users live.” True people are still visiting websites, and using Google to find information of interest, but considering the staggering popularity of these social networking sites, it may makes sense to establish a presence on each. The details of how to do so and engage users are beyond the scope of this presentation, but our center will be providing some of the how-to’s in the near future.In this slide we see the National Dissemination Center’s Facebook page. According to Google Analytics, can receive upwards of 14,000 pageviews/day. So we know there are many, many people benefitting from the long hours we put in…but it’s something else altogether to see the smiling faces of those who have, of their own volition, chosen to become fans of our page on Facebook.
- After you begin to “follow” more and more users on Twitter you might find that it’s more difficult to keep up with all the “Tweets” streaming through...
- If you try to read every tweet in your stream as if it were an email in your inbox you’ll soon look like this.
- Twitter is probably better viewed as a fountain, dipped into at single points of time.
- The Matrix is an extensive database of activities under taken by OSEP’s TA&D projects and the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education’s (OESE) Comprehensive Centers. Information is entered about activities of the projects and centers in the Matrix, and this database of activities allows states, stakeholders, projects, centers, and others to view the work happening in states and jurisdictions across the U.S. This database provides one location for OSEP, OESE, states, projects, centers, and others to get the latest information on services available and delivered to states, locals and other recipients.
- OSEP is dedicated to improving results for infants, toddlers, children and youth with disabilities ages birth through 21. To this end, OSEP provides leadership and financial support to assist states and local districts, including funding approximately 1,000 grants and contracts. If you'd like to know what grants and contracts OSEP has funded as part of its initiatives to improve results for children with disabilities, search the discretionary database. This database offers complete listings of OSEP's grants and contracts through the SEARCH feature and in print (as PDF files).
- http://tadnet.ning.com/ - a new social networking site designed to support and strengthen communication and information exchange across the TA&D network and beyond. In this community space individuals from across the TA&D Network can easily connect with others, participate in discussions, and create or join targeted special interests groups. In our efforts to provide increased flexibility in creating group work space this is one option for centers to use. This new space leverages the Ning social networking platform. What is Ning? Ning is the second fastest-growing social networking platform (right behind Twitter) and now hosts more than 1,000,000 customized social networks. How might you use this space? Feel free to go in, look around, and get familiar with the site - it is yours to use to exchange information with other centers, your clients, plus you can establish groups or share resources - there are many possibilities.
- IDEA.ed.gov was created to provide a "one-stop shop" for resources related to IDEA and its implementing regulations, released on August 3, 2006. It is a "living" website changing and growing as resources and information become available. The site provides searchable versions of IDEA and the regulations, access to cross-referenced content from other laws (e.g., the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), etc.), video clips on selected topics, topic briefs on selected regulations, links to OSEP's TA&D Network and a Q&A Corner where you can submit questions, and a variety of other information sources.
