Database Marketing Campaign
Oakland University
Business Overview
Oakland University Promotes Summer Program with Comprehensive Cross-Media Campaign
located in Rochester, Michigan
Product or Service: Offers two eight-week summer sessions.
Economic Trends: With Oakland University experiencing declining enrollment rates, new marketing strategies were implemented to increase the number of students enrolling.
Competitive Analysis : this campaign initiative was led by SNAP analysis against their own poor enrollment rates rather than competition with other summer university programs
Oakland had used a number of marketing channels to promote their summer sessions including:
static direct mail
e-mail
radio and magazine advertisements
Advertisements, promotions on the OU Web site,
Facebook ads.
Database Marketing Campaign Goals and Objectives
Attempting to acquire new students through several channels of marketing
Enhance brand perception as a quality school
Track all marketing initiatives to establish benchmarks for effectiveness
Integrate all marketing initiatives with a centralized marketing management system
Prove new ways of marketing can increase enrollment
Determine which marketing channels deliver the best results
Help OU develop a set of best practices and recommendations for next year’s summer program marketing plan
And at least maintain enrollment numbers from 2009 summer sessions.
Targeting
The target audience for this campaign included the following segments:
Undergraduate students
Graduate students
Continuing education/professional development students
Non-OU Michigan college students.
The messages targeting these groups were customized based on information learned during the SNAP survey.
Marketing Strategy and Tactics
E-Mail Campaign/Targeting
E-mails were sent every two weeks to prospective students during the campaign period of January through June. The goal was to create an e-mail marketing process whereby students were put in different communication tracks depending on how they responded to e-mails.
E-mails were segmented based on the student’s program interest:
Undergraduate,
Graduate,
Summer registrant,
Continuing education
Online course interest.
E-Mail Campaign
The goal of the e-mails was to drive traffic to the summer session Web site.
Cumulative e-mail marketing channel results:
24% open rate.
39% click-through rate–visited landing page.
Of those who went to the landing page, 77% requested more information about the summer session program.
4,638 students who eventually enrolled reacted to an e-mail.
E-Mail Campaign
SNAP Program
Form of servicing survey. Sent out to former OU summer course takers
(SNAP) Student Needs Analysis Process, allows motivating factors to be determined for reasons of summer enrollment
Hear from previous enrolled students on likes and dislikes of summer program as well as their thoughts on how the summer program could be enhanced or more attractiv.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
