Social media and mobile devices have combined to help create the always-with-us, always-on, always-connected campus. Not just student-to-student but, importantly, institution/faculty/staff-to-student as well as staff-to-staff. We need to look beyond the silo-ed, one-way web sites of the past towards more personal, two-way applications that take advantage of this sea change on campus. The ways in which our users will want to interact with us, the types of tasks they’ll want to complete, and the types of devices we’ll want to deliver to will just continue to proliferate.
Now is the time to reevaluate.
Using lessons learned at a large land-grant institution we’ll look at what the future friendly campus might look like, ways to plant the seed of that change and tips on how to accomplish it.
This presentation was given at the 2012 .eduGuru Summit on April 11, 2012.

Dawn takes a look at ‘The Iceberg Approach to SEO’. As we move increasingly to an era of smaller screen search (or no screen), we need to consider ways to say more with less and communicate this to both search engines and users. She explores semantics, the knowledge graph, schema and ontologies combined with UX as methods to pass themed ‘equivalence’ from below the surface of the site or the individual page.
Implications of the near and far futureJon McMillan
Speech delivered by MCCM Jon McMillan, Master Chief for Navy Public Affairs at the Navy Mass Communication Specialist 10 Year Anniversary. The near and far future will dramatically change how Navy communicators perform their job.
Einstein published his ideas and became a pivotal element in shifting the way we think about physics - from the Newtonian model to the Quantum - in turn this changed the way we think about the world and allowed us to develop new ways of engaging with the world.
We are at a similar juncture. The development of computational technologies allows us to think about astronomical volumes of data and to make meaning of that data.
The mindshift that occurs is that “the machine is our friend”. The computer, like all machines, extends our capabilities. As a consequence the types of thinking now required in industry are those that get away from thinking like a computer and shift towards creative engagement with possibilities. Logical thinking is still necessary but it starts to be driven by imagination.
Computational thinking and data science change the way we think about defining and solving problems.
The age of creativity - which increasingly extends its impact from arts applications to business, scientific, technological, entrepreneurship, political, and other contexts.
Responsive design, application development using APIs, and content strategy are hot topics in web development right now. These ideas belong to a bigger umbrella: ubiquitous computing and the role it plays in our lives. Traditional ideas of usability are undergoing dynamic changes as we move away from a desktop-first model of personal computing.
The internet refrigerator already exists and it's only the tip of the iceberg. In the near future, human-computer interactions will be thoroughly integrated into everyday objects and activities.
Postdesktop was a presentation to add clarity to responsive design as part of a larger context and to think about a shift that is changing the devices we use to access the web, the delivery method for education, the teaching and learning experience, and the whole of our lives.
Topics included a look at the role of pervasive computing:
• as it relates to responsive design
• in the classroom and textbooks
• in .edu marketing and utility on campuses

Smart Data Webinar: Advances in Natural Language Processing II - NL GenerationDATAVERSITY
Need more than visualization?
Generate custom narrative docs from data today.
Technology for natural language generation (NLG) has advanced from the production of restricted-domain question-answering and simulation systems to the delivery of general purpose data- or model-driven narratives that are virtually indistinguishable from human-generated correspondence.
From sports to stock reports, you’ve probably read a machine-generated report in the past year without realizing that the “author” was a machine.
Participants in this webinar will learn how modern approaches have progressed beyond pattern matching and table-driven text selection to algorithms that consider context and tone. We will also present examples of commercially available NLG APIs to help participants experiment with NLG in their own applications right away.
Implementing Big Data, NoSQL, & Hadoop - Bigger Is (Usually) BetterDATAVERSITY
From its widespread formal business practice to the scope of casual popular awareness, “Big Data” has a tendency to live up to its name. Featured in countless headlines, journal articles, and industry reviews, Big Data metrics and methods such as NoSQL and Hadoop have taken up plenty of the spotlight as of late. However, most of what has been written about these topics is focused on the hardware, services, and scale-out involved with them, a misguided focus that ignores the critical questions driving any shift in corporate strategy: what can Big Data do for you? Which approach to it best fits your organization? And perhaps most importantly, what is required on your end in order to spur a successful implementation process?
In the interest of answering these and other questions, this webinar will:
Provide guidance on how to think about and establish realistic Big Data management plans and expectations for generating business value, as well as on the means by which big data can complement existing data management practices
Introduce a framework for evaluating the various choices when it comes to implementing and succeeding with Big Data/NoSQL
Elaborate upon the prototyping nature of practicing Big Data techniques
Show how to demonstrate a sample use ca
