Empowering Students to Tell Your Institution's StoryMeg Bernier
As content strategists, we are constantly seeking creative ways to tell our institution’s story in print publications, on the web and across social media. Our audiences don’t want to (and won’t) read marketing jargon and mission statements because they crave authentic, transparent and honest content they can trust, relate to and believe in. The beautiful thing about higher education is we have thousands of people on our campuses who are not just living our institution’s story – they are the story. Why not harness the power within that?
When you encourage students to share their stories in their own voice and own way, they feel valued and, more importantly, know their experiences matter. This session showcases the benefits of heavy student involvement in the work we do and why it’s important to start building this relationship now.
-Learn how to engage students in ways that earn their trust and foster more sharing.
-Discover opportunities where you can inspire your students to tell their stories in ways that align with your institution’s content strategy.
-Develop ways to make user-generated content just as valuable to those creating it as it is to us and our institution.
Social media can be used in the classroom to actively engage students in learning and make the classroom more interactive. During lessons, students can provide backchannel feedback on concepts via tools like Twitter. Students can also collaborate in social media study groups on blogs, Facebook, Google+ or Edmodo to explore concepts and work on projects. The document calls on readers to submit ideas for leveraging social media and technology to improve education, with one idea being selected for development and implementation in the teacher's classroom over the coming school year.
Building a professional digital profileLisa Harris
This document provides guidance on building a professional digital profile. It discusses digital literacies and their importance for employment prospects. Managing personal and professional identities online is important, as employers increasingly use social media in hiring. The document offers tips on developing an online presence through platforms like LinkedIn and curating a digital footprint that showcases skills. It emphasizes giving value to one's network through sharing and engaging before asking for recommendations or help. Maintaining privacy and securing accounts is also advised. Exercises encourage readers to reflect on their digital identity management and plans to enhance their online professional profile.
Sustainable Assignments: How Open Pedagogy Can Transform TeachingRobin DeRosa
This document discusses open pedagogy and sustainable assignments. It defines open pedagogy as using open educational resources (OER) and open licenses to allow students to contribute to and build upon course materials. Sustainable assignments are designed to increase access to education, engage students with communities, and enable students to contribute to shared knowledge. The document argues that open pedagogy and sustainable assignments can help make higher education more affordable, collaborative, and publicly oriented.
Changing Roles in Communications Departments (What's social media got to do w...Susan T. Evans
This presentation was a general session for the 2012 UCDA Design Summit. Summary - For the best results: everything is connected to everything else. Social media is most effective when it is a part of an integrated brand strategy and tightly linked to other communication initiatives. And these days, Twitter and Facebook are not just the purview of social media strategists. More case study discussion will demonstrate how you incorporate social media channels into key communication projects. And, while you're at it, you might as well use social media for your own renewal and rejuvenation as you meet the challenges of new roles and responsibilities on your campus.
Community Coalitions are finding their way in social media and discovering it really does matter to the success of their communications. Handout: https://www.dropbox.com/s/aqy7fwb0v6fgpxs/DE-SoMe%20Communications%20Matter%20Handout.pdf?dl=0 Delaware Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Presented by Kedron Taylor and Shane Young at the 2016 OCPA Annual Conference.
In this presentation, we talk about a few of the technologies that we have used in our coursework and jobs to make us more efficient and better able to serve our stakeholders. We also discuss technology's affect on student development.
The document discusses the future of academic advising. It suggests advising will involve greater use of technology to connect students globally and increase digital access to learning materials. Advising will also become more collaborative, with advisors building relationships and connecting students' education to meaningful careers. Advisors will have more influence on their campuses by taking on leadership roles, evaluating academic programs, and demonstrating how advising contributes to student success. Additionally, advising will fully integrate with academics by having advisors considered faculty who conduct research and contribute to their field.
Effective business engagement using online communitiessuresh sood
Effective engagement with online communities requires consideration of several key areas:
1. Focusing on relationships between people rather than technologies alone.
2. Understanding how social objects drive formation of networks.
3. Applying principles of social psychology around sharing, reciprocity, and social proof to build engagement.
4. Recognizing the benefits of community, such as knowledge sharing, can help businesses if community needs are prioritized over service needs.
Harnessing the Power of Open: How Open Education Can Transform Our Assignment...Robin DeRosa
This document discusses open education and how open pedagogy can transform assignments, courses, and colleges. It defines open educational resources (OER) and open pedagogy. It argues that open education increases access to higher education by lowering costs for students and enabling them to contribute to knowledge. Sustainable open assignments center access, connect students to communities of practice, and leverage open licenses. Open education can put the "public" back into public higher education by making knowledge more accessible, interactive, and collaborative.
This document discusses student engagement in tertiary education. It explores student expectations and experiences, as well as reasons for student engagement or disengagement. The document examines challenges in engaging students academically and socially. It also discusses the importance of transition support, belonging, and building community. Interventions discussed include induction programs, formative assessment, and integrating academic and social experiences.

Digital Content Curation as a Social Media Strategy - How to Make the Univers...Thomas Listerman
The document discusses using social media content curation as a strategy for universities. It recommends that universities 1) monitor social media for mentions using a common hashtag, 2) curate the best content that illustrates the university's brand and story, and 3) share the curated content less than creating new content. The university of San Francisco implemented this approach using #USFCA and found great engagement from prospects, students and alumni. Their curated content received more views than created content and strengthened the university's brand messaging.
Cross-Institutional Partnerships for City Scale Learning Ecologies - Digital ...Rafi Santo
Rob DiRenzo, Alex Molina, Sybil Madison-Boyd, Rafi Santo, Clare Bertrand
Expanded Learning Opportunities are reshaping when, where, and how student learning occurs. A well-designed and well-implemented ELO program can complement in-school learning and support academic growth by combining various ways for students to engage in learning. How do organizations, including schools, districts, and partners, build “expanded learning ecologies” for youth that support connected learning? The goal of this panel is to inform participants about building expanded learning ecologies to scale and across boundaries showcasing successes and challenges by presenting recent examples from Chicago, New York, and Providence, RI. To address the topic of scale, we will share examples of efforts that aim to reach many youth across many programs, beyond a single intervention or setting. To illustrate crossed boundaries, we will explain efforts to connect various nodes in a youths’ learning ecology (e.g., in-school, out-of-school, individual passion, etc.).
Chicago: The first Chicago Summer of Learning was a citywide mayoral initiative designed to expand learning opportunities for youth during the summer of 2013. More than 100 organizations took part in this effort to recognize learning in out-of-school spaces through digital badges. More than 200,000 youth participated in CSOL programs, and more than 100,000 badges were earned by youth of all ages. Chicago took a first, critical step in enacting core principles of connected learning and laying the foundation for a vibrant ecosystem of learning opportunities. As ELOs begin to signify experiences that link to content- and career-specific pathways, we expect to see even greater potential to transform youths’ lives.
New York: The NYC Department of Education’s Digital Ready program is designed to help participating NYC public high schools use technology and student-centered learning to improve their students’ readiness for college and careers. With Digital Ready’s explicit focus on student-centered learning, expanded learning opportunities play an important role in preparing students to explore, engage, and practice their interests. The Digital Ready and Hive Learning Network teams have worked to coordinate a collaborative effort between 10 innovative high schools and 13 groundbreaking Hive NYC organizations to provide students with a range of opportunities that blend in-school and out-of-school learning with experiences that are production-centered and creativity-focused.
Providence: Since its creation in 2004, the Providence After School Alliance has built two citywide expanded learning models in collaboration with the City of Providence, the Providence Public Schools and the local community: the AfterZone for middle school, and The Hub for high school. These models offer Providence youth a coordinated schedule of in-school, after-school summer learning programs for high school credit.
The document discusses how digital literacy skills are important for learning, working, and living in today's networked world. It outlines several topics that will be covered in the module, including how to effectively use blogs and social media to enhance learning and career opportunities. Students will participate in an online MOOC and research project to learn about developing digital literacies and learning networks. They will also set up blogs and learn how to curate and create various digital content, effectively communicate online, and manage their digital identity and online behavior.

What is more important for an individual?: wellness, academic performance or role expectations? The fall of 2014 saw a rise in a-typical, high level incidents, which impacted student staff. Combined with feedback expressed in individual meetings between students and the Director, a clear need for a wellness program was established. Now a full year after launching the program, we will provide data, insights and discussion on how we are prioritizing wellness and shifting organizational culture in Housing and Residence Life.

This document summarizes the findings of a research study on international students navigating the Canadian immigration process and the support services provided by their universities.

Key findings included the need for support services to be convenient, timely, and provide accurate information about immigration policies. Students also emphasized universities advocating for them in policy discussions and being proactive in connecting students to resources. The document concludes with initiatives at Ryerson University to support international students' career and immigration needs through awareness programs at different stages of their academic journey.

#RoadToRyerson: How To Run An Impactful Social Media Campaign
by Bailey Parnell
Summer of 2015 marks the second successful #RoadToRyerson campaign at Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada. What started as 5 incoming students sharing their diverse stories of coming to post-secondary school has now turned into a cross-campus initiative to connect everyone to a central, inclusive story of transition. As someone who's done this for large educational and media brands, this presentation will use #RoadToRyerson as a case study in how to produce a successful social media campaign. It will highlight how we incorporated Schlossberg's transition theory and give a concrete guide to doing this at your campus or for your brand.

#RoadFromRyerson: A New Pathway for Graduating Student Transition Support
by Rachel Barreca, Andrew Bisnauth, and Bailey Parnell
We invest a lot of resources into supporting the transitional needs of our incoming students, but pay less attention to the outgoing transition of graduating students. For some, this is a new challenge, as the formal education portion of their lives comes to an end and gets replaced by the world of work. Come learn about how we’re using Schlossberg’s transition theory (1981) and Fisher’s Process of Transition model (2012) to inform an innovative, collaborative pilot project (#RoadFromRyerson), and about our vision for future programming for our graduating students.

Managing Projects: Experiences from Two Non-Project Managers
By Ian Ingles & Keitha Prospere
This past year, Ian Ingles and Keitha Prospere engaged in several projects across multiple areas of focus and of varying sizes. Both Ian and Keitha are relatively new to their individual roles within Ryerson SA and took on several key projects over the past year. As two “non” project managers, they will share their experiences, the challenges encountered and what was learned working on a variety of projects across different areas of focus in a post-secondary educational environment. Ian and Keitha will present the tips, suggestions and best practices they discovered through their own unique journeys in new roles within Ryerson SA.
Creative Immersive and Sustainable Staff Development - Aleksandra KuleszaRyerson Student Affairs
This document discusses creating effective and sustainable staff development. It recommends reframing staff development as a personal growth opportunity rather than just checking boxes. Supported learning groups and peer observations can help promote engagement and impactful experiences for students. Staff feedback indicates the current approach increased confidence, interpersonal skills, and opportunities for both personal and professional development. The document calls for continuing an open and reflective approach to avoid past mistakes and keep staff development evolving to meet future needs.
Maximizing Effectiveness, Efficiency, and Staff Satisfaction: Real Possibili...Ryerson Student Affairs
Presentation created by: Dr. Sarah Thompson
Amidst an enduring period of fiscal restraint, there has been a marked increase in routine and crisis cases presenting to Canadian post-secondary counselling centres. Various approaches have been taken to solving this problem including soft and hard session caps, increased time between therapy sessions, increased wait times, and discussions of outsourcing counselling.
This presentation outlined approaches at Ryerson’s Centre for Student Development and Counselling (CSDC) to transforming student development and mental health care. Through a systematic review of structures, staffing, and systems, and through individual and team self-reflection, we are developing, piloting and strengthening our capacities across eight key sub-systems to create an integrated, proactive, and transformative developmental model of interventions that fosters student well-being and health.
Speaking your Language was a project was a tri-institutional partnership between University of Toronto, OCAD University, and Ryerson University. We had a phenomenal working group of international educators, counsellors, and student life colleagues, and were joined by an even more phenomenal group of student volunteers. The intention of the collaboration between the schools was to combine our student populations as well as access to resources as our campuses are quite close.

What is more important for an individual: wellness, academic performance, or role expectations? This fall, Ryerson University Housing & Residence Life saw an influx in a-typical, high level incidents. This, combined with feedback expressed in individual meetings between paraprofessionals and the Director, demonstrated a clear need for a wellness program which was launched in January. This presentation will discuss findings, learning, and next steps to ensure the paraprofessional staff team are supported as people first.

1. Catalyzing Change, Building Community,
and Creating Identity through Digital
Storytelling
#CACUSS2014 and #RyersonSA
2. Sessional Outcomes
● Participants will:
o Learn the basics of two theories for managing transition and change
o Learn how a platform for storytelling will help them navigate large
scale or small scale change at their institution
o Audit their own departmental practices with regards to storytelling
o See how their own engagement in the session can be used to tell a
story and share learning
4. Agenda
● Context - What is #RyersonSA?
● Theories of Change
o Schlossberg
o Kotter
● #RyersonSA and Digital Storytelling
● How Digital Storytelling has addressed
transition at Ryerson
● How can this be applied elsewhere
5. Context
● History
● The birth of “Student Affairs” at Ryerson
● Who are we?
● What do we do?
● Why a new approach?
7. Schlossberg
● Transition any event or non-event that
results in changed relationships, routines,
assumptions and roles.
o Events can be expected (graduation/retirement) or unexpected
(separation/dismissal)
o Context = one’s relationship with the transition and the setting
o Impact = degree to which one’s life is altered
9. Kotter’s 8 stages
● Create Urgency
● Form a Power Coalition
● Create a vision for change
● Communicate the vision
● Remove obstacles
● Create short-term wins
● Build on the change
● Anchor change in corporate culture
10. Why #RyersonSA?
● In Schlossberg we noticed
o Individuals did not have much control of the situation
o Self-doubt and lack of identity
o Social support was challenging given our physical
proximity and lack of time to gather
o Strategies
Committees, social opportunities, but how to
carry outside of those moments in time
11. Why #RyersonSA?
● The creation of an online and intentional
digital community and the advent of a digital
storytelling culture within student affairs
would help us overcome the challenges
12. Utilizing Kotter’s theory
● We asked:
o Using the vision for Student Affairs how can we
create buy-in?
How can the blog and hashtag communicate the
vision (explicitly and implicitly)?
o How can we remove the obstacles noted above?
o How can we utilize the digital sphere to continue to
tell the story of change?
o How will it be anchored in a budding culture?
13. RyersonStudentAffairs.com
● More than just our blog
o A place for staff to contribute to the growing student
affairs dialogue
Ideas, insights, learning, reflection
o A place where we can get to know and recognize
each other
Staff spotlights, Staff announcements
o A place where anyone on staff can contribute their
story or have that story highlighted
● We encourage authenticity in voice
o If you are bringing it to work then it might make a
good post
14. #RyersonSA (The Hashtag)
● Coupled with the blog the use of the hashtag
has expanded our physical community into
the digital realm
● Has seen major uptake from staff across the
department

Ryerson Student Affairs as a department was officially created in the summer of 2012 and brought together Career Development and Employment Centre, Health and Wellness, Student Learning Support and Student Community Life. In the spring/summer of 2013 John Austin communicated his vision for Ryerson Student Affairs based on assessment data gathered from Ryerson’s People First Survey and Focus Groups with all members of the team. The 5 priorities were:
Quality
Connection
Innovation/creativity
Intersectionality
Reach
The shift to a lone Department of Student Affairs has been a massive change for Ryerson. The four units listed previously at one point all individually reported to the Vice Provost and Prior to that the Director, Student Services (who oversaw 30+ direct reports/units). The shared vision and common goals were also brand new. The change therefore represented a major shift in role, organizational culture, organizational identity, affinity, relationships, etc. Complicating this factor are the size and time constraints that we traditionally see in Student Affairs. There is not one space where we all congregate or work. Our days are busy and for some units attending an all team meeting requires shutting down of vital services and is not appropriate more than a couple of times per year. So the dilemma, how do we initiate and support change while building community and identity without proximity or time to come together.
Why these two theories
1) Familiarity with Schlossberg as it is used in student transition and student development
2) Relevance Kotter speaks to major organizational change from a business model
While typically used to describe individual transition can easily translate to organizational change
Any of these S’s can be asset or a liability
They are all interrelated, strength in one can offset liability in another
Some are dynamic and can be changed, other factors less so.
When we reviewed the change happening in #RyersonSA a few things stood out as being potential challenges to our ability to cope with change.
1. Situation - the context under which the decision was made left little opportunity for input (although opportunity since has been great), No common work area
2. Self = all new identity as Student Affairs, individuals feeling threatened about loss of professional identity or underrepresented
3. Social Support = new networks, new colleagues, lack of institutional knowledge/equivalents
4. Strategies - Committees, Digital Storytelling to build identity through common discourse, experiences, celebration and recognition
Kotters stages are based on a capitalist and private sector. They tend to be authoritative if not autoritarian and not developmental. However, there is still relevance when considering how an organization changes.
In Kotter’s model it is on the leader or leadership to encourage change
The Ryerson SA Blog is a space where professionals working in student affairs can contribute ideas on a topic, showcase their work, share learning and reflections from professional or personal development opportunities, learn about each other, and continue to build on and grow a culture of success. The space also provides an opportunity for colleagues and students from across the institution, the nation and around the world to view the great things that are happening here. The Ryerson SA Blog serves as a point of connection for professional staff in the Career Development and Employment Centre, Student Learning Support, Student Health and Wellness, and Student Community Life
