Paper presented at Moodlemoot Ireland & UK, Dublin, Ireland, 2-4 April 2012
Usually we think one of Moodle's great assets is its worldwide community. However, IMHO you may question whether the community as it is organized today can cope with future challenges.
IMHO what we need is:
1. an organized way to give the Moodle community a voice;
2. an open discussion on what is going on in the e-learning field and how we perceive these developments are valuable for our teaching/learning and have their impact on the position of Moodle.
3. an open discussion on the Moodle characteristics that are appreciated most by its users.
4. an assessment of alternative roadmaps for development.
As an example, the Open University has given various presentations on earlier Moodlemoots on the way this large educational "factory"organizes course development and has changed their own instance of Moodle (3000 changes, I once heard, if I remember correctly). I really want to know more about what they are doing. And I really would like to use that if it is more appropriate than Moodle’s standard edition. Or even better, if we agree on such changes, make them the standard edition. Of course such issues require careful discussion of advantages and disadvantages, and careful decision-making. A better organized community could initiate and facilitate this.
What do you think about it?

The document discusses the potential use of 3D virtual worlds for public consultation projects. It provides examples of traditional public consultation methods, such as websites and in-person discussions, and outlines some of the limitations of these approaches. The document proposes that virtual worlds could enable a more immersive and interactive consultation experience that allows citizens to experience a realistic simulation of a project. It also suggests that virtual worlds could facilitate real-time dialogue between officials and citizens and help reach a wider international audience. Potential risks and costs associated with virtual worlds are also briefly discussed.
This document discusses new trends in journalism including the decline of daily newspapers, rise of media entrepreneurship and startups focusing on niche topics. It describes different models that are emerging such as investigative news sites, local independent startups, non-narrative forms of journalism using data, comics and drones. New distribution channels on social media and partnerships between organizations are mentioned. The document also discusses soft advocacy sites focused on topics like public schools and sustainable cities, and questions whether new models can increase engagement. It concludes by framing different approaches to journalism like solutions, activist and advocacy-focused reporting.

Local news websites can work with broadcast media by having reporters summarize stories in 1-2 sentences highlighting the main points with colorful context and energy. A new feature being added is photographs from stories. Examples of local news sites collaborating are KQED News Associates, SF Public Press, and Richmond Confidential which could work with broadcast stations to share content and stories.
The presentation is part of a speech given by J-Lab's Jan Schaffer at Howard University as part of the Social Media Technology Conference 2012 (http://socialmediatechnologyconference.com/).

This document provides a 10-step process for launching a new media project: 1) Map the landscape by defining a unique value proposition, 2) Test the idea with feedback, 3) Create a wireframe for topics, staffing, and updates, 4) Choose a business structure such as nonprofit, 5) Develop a business plan covering funding, budget, growth, and audience, 6) Craft an elevator pitch summarizing the project, 7) Build a simple website, 8) Gather content like stories and partnerships, 9) Launch with events and social media, 10) Track metrics like visitors, donors, and impact.
1) Participatory journalism in the USA includes individual bloggers, niche sites, advocacy groups, and crowdsourcing platforms that allow diverse participants to contribute news and information through acts of journalism.
2) Trends in participatory journalism include breaking news reporting, watchdogging, micro-local news, and crowdsourcing investigations. Participation opportunities exist through citizen watchdog projects, video mashups, group blogs, and user generated content.
3) Studies have found that citizen media can provide more diverse perspectives than mainstream media, with less focus on major news stories and fewer stereotypes. However, citizen media is also more fragmented and lacks the resources of large news organizations.
The document discusses trends in journalism and the creation of new roles to empower citizen media makers. It outlines eight trends in U.S. media including hyperlocal news sites, individual reporters, old and new media companies, and university-based news sites. It also discusses how journalism can add value by connecting stories and trends, and providing more explanatory coverage. The key lessons are that citizen journalism requires significant effort, social media is changing the field, and hyperlocal sites have not yet proven financially sustainable.
J-Lab director Jan Schaffer welcomed incoming graduate students to American University's School of Communication with a brief overview of the center's work in the hyperlocal space.

The Miami Herald is looking to build partnerships with local community publishers, bloggers, and journalists to create a network for sharing community-focused content and conversations. They plan to leverage their brand and audience to generate revenue for partners through advertising and public service announcements. Their goal is to broaden this initial network of existing local newspapers and startups to also include more established bloggers and community interest sites.
The document discusses partnerships between the Charlotte Observer and local hyper-local news sites. It notes that content sharing has benefited the printed Observer more than expected and increased traffic to specific stories. Training was valuable for the partners, especially around advertising. It focuses on the Villa Heights neighborhood, a diverse and economically challenged area where the Observer provided coaching on journalism and advertising to help launch the local site and increase sustainability for multiple sites. Questions are welcomed.
The document summarizes the findings of focus groups and interviews about how women interact with, participate in, create, and consume news in new and traditional media. Six key themes emerged: 1) Community journalism is becoming more participatory. 2) New media explores less objective and more inclusive definitions of news. 3) Building community, not just covering it, drives local news sites. 4) Community news sites fill gaps in coverage from other media. 5) New media entrepreneurs are motivated by traditional media's slow pace of change. 6) Both creators and consumers see benefits and drawbacks to changes in media.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
