The rise of the Empowered Public and its impact on the journalist-source relationship. This presentation was originally given by S.I. Newhouse School Professor Dan Pacheco at the Beyond Convergence conference at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in October, 2013.
Social media, the world of Facebook, Twitter and Youtube, have made an enormous
impact on our society.
Over the last five years, social media have changed the world of public order and
security as well as the investigation of crimes. One could even say a revolutionary
development is taking place. The meaning of this revolution might not be valued
yet, but it has and will continue to have great consequences when it comes to the
organization and methods of the police and it’s professional partners. Now, not only
the partners, but also civilians are playing an increasingly crucial part within the
security domain.

A presentation at Malmö Högskola about User Driven Innovation. The presentations key take away is that there are three components; technical innovation (bad in my book), user centered (ok), and market centered (good).
Highlights from veteran journalist Charlie Meyerson’s Sept. 26, 2017, presentation at the Downers Grove Public Library, where he offered guidance for weeding through digital noise and social media to find and share news responsibly.
World is transforming and converging rapidly through available information in various digital platforms. There has been a lot more discussions and deliberations has happened in the past at media, social, political and government forums about the reliability, authenticity and validity of information shared by users in the form of User Generated Content (UGC). According to a handbook on journalism, ‘Fake News’ and disinformation released by UNESCO, describes briefly about the emerging global problem of fake contents (disinformation) that confronts societies in general and journalism in particular.
Social media - promise and peril for journalists Linda Austin
This presentation was delivered at Media Culture Days at Babeș-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, on May 15, 2019. Linda Austin spoke as a Fulbright Specialist. It summarizes the benefits and detriments to journalists from the advent of social media. The promise includes (1) Promotion and branding, and (2) Reporting and audience engagement. The peril includes (1) Trolling of journalists, (2) Journalists misled by hoaxes, (3) Less trust in social media reduces trust in all media, (4) Press freedom restricted, (5) Journalists amplifying the ugliness, and (6) Platforms suck digital-ad revenue.
In October 2009, Euro RSCG Worldwide commissioned a survey to map the trajectory of social life and social media usage in the United States, quizzing 1,228 Americans from all online demographics.This white paper looks at the macro developments in social media; it also brings in numbers and verbatims about people’s hopes for their social life online and offline before finally drawing conclusions and implications for marketers and their clients.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Empowered Public: Strong overlap with government sources,
especially when technology is involved.
Journalist’s role: Reacting to what sources leak into the network.
Analyzing it and providing context. Followup.
Government’s role: Loses control of information when, ironically, it
is also surveiling everything –calls, internet searches, social media,
email, connections between people.

24. The empowered public, not
“social media,” is uncovering
and even reporting the stories
that matter most.
25. Question
• Why did Snowden go to The Guardian and New York Times,
rather than directly to the social public?
– I asked The Guardian. The answer: “He was very patriotic. He felt
he wasn’t qualified to make judgments on what was happening.
He just thought it was wrong.” (Janine Gibson, editor in chief of
Guardian U.S. at Online News Association.”
• Opportunity for journalists to regain the public’s trust.
27. And Beyond
• The social public is poised to emerge as a
primary source / watchdog of government.
• Get read for the Arab Spring on steroids.
• Everyone becomes a camera. “Google Glass is a
broadcast tower on your face.”
