How to use a blog for publishing scientific research: A training guide part 1AfricanCommonsProject
The African Commons Project ran a two-day training workshop with the Academy of Science of South Africa in August 2009. We set up a basic Wordpress blog for them, and then led through intensive training on how to use the platform and the basics of blogging: from content to marketing.
At WordCamp Ottawa on April 27, 2013, I talked about how to write a blog post, which is a topic that often gets lost among all the discussions on design and functionality. The quality of content is really one of the core reasons people come to a website. A lot of us get stuck when writing posts, so I came up with some ways to generate ideas, decide how to package them into a blog-like format, and then finally write them. There are also some tips for streamlining your workflow in WordPress.

Have you ever thought about giving other people a commission for generating sales or leads for you? This is called affiliate marketing, and you can take advantage of this up-and-coming marketing channel to boost sales or leads while lowering your risk. Not only do affiliate marketing programs help free up your time (since others create and run the advertisements), but it also helps shift the risk away from you since you only pay when a successful sale is made or a lead is generated. The following presentation will teach you the basics of affiliate marketing including what it is, the basic elements of running a successful affiliate program and what you can do to get started right away. As a bonus, we’ll also detail some ideas you can use to create a new revenue stream for your business by promoting others’ products yourself!

Falling in love (again) with Digital Analytics in Higher Education (PSEWEB 20...Karine Joly

Gone Digital, Going Strategic: Dawn & Rise of Digital Professionals in Higher EdKarine Joly
This session was presented at UB Tech 2015 in Orlando. You can find a 30-minute screencast I recorded on my blog: http://goo.gl/y8ugS9
What difference can a decade make in higher education? The past 10 years have changed everything for digital professionals working in universities and colleges across the country. In 10 years only, the typical "web person" has moved from a cubicle in the basement next to - ok, in - the web server room to the corner office on the third floor. As social media, mobile and more have been added to the digital plate, many professionals had to hit the ground running repeatedly, but yet managed to mature into a rising generation of digital communication and marketing campus leaders. In this session, you'll hear about the decisive moments leading to this major shift and learn the strategies the most successful digital professionals have used to get a seat at the decision table. You will also get an overview of the major trends that will impact your digital job in the future and what you can do to get ready to tackle these new challenges.
#Change: Now Trending for Generations, Expectations & Higher EducationKarine Joly
What has NOT changed in technology over the past decade? Very little. Change is the name of the game in technology. But, this change has triggered and shaped deeper transformations in generations, expectations and higher education. This presentation invites you to explore these changing trends and their transformative impact on some institutions of higher education in North America.
It was developed for and given at McGill University in Montreal.
Social Media TOS Crash Course (Redacted #heweb13 presentation)Karine Joly
There is no such thing as the Social Media License Test.
Whether you join Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest or any other social media platform, you can still check the "I agree" box without reading any of their lengthy terms of service (TOS). Despite all the talk about social media policies in higher education, basic TOS infractions are still common place.
What you don't know as a social media professional can hurt your work, so don't toss the TOS!
In this session, you'll get the CliffNotes version of the major terms any social media professional working in higher education should know and why it's a bad idea to ignore the rules in social media land.
The 2012 State of Social Media and Web Analytics in Higher EdKarine Joly
This presentation gives a good quantitative and qualitative overview of how institutions have adopted analytics to inform their marketing decisions. By sharing the main results of the 3rd yearly survey on the State of Web and Social Media in Higher Ed, trends, emblematic success stories and useful resources, Karine Joly will also help you become a web and social media analytics evangelist at your institution.
The State of Print and Electronic Publications in Higher EducationKarine Joly
With tighter budgets, new technologies and evolving expectations, the balance between print and electronic publications has recently shifted. Beyond the horror stories of discontinued publications, successful electronic (re)births or even the few new magazine launches, what kind of print and electronic mix do most universities and colleges use? The latest results of the State of Print and Electronic Publications in Higher Ed Survey and a few interesting case studies presented in this session will tell you.
Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, blogs, email marketing, web advertising, mobile web and more. So many tools, so little time. With tighter budgets and shrinking teams, something's gotta give. But why not stop making these tough marketing decisions based on hunches, guesses and opinions? With the help of online analytics, it's possible to find out what really works and what doesn't. So, let's start the social media and web analytics revolution at your institution and others across the country. After learning more about the current state of online analytics in higher education, you will find out what you need to do to join this revolution and hopefully change the face of higher ed marketing. Forever.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
