Social Media and Institutional Leadership in UK Higher EducationSue Beckingham
This research project examines how senior leaders in UK higher education deploy social media to the benefit of their institutions, their staff and their students. As universities become increasingly digital institutions within complex distributed networks, we suggest it is vitally important for senior leaders to directly embrace social approaches to communication and engagement. Drawing on paradigms from other sectors and outside the UK, we begin the work by establishing the rationale for university leaders to communicate regularly, personally and responsively to support strategic change.
Specifically, we explore how ‘digital leadership’ through social media can:
promote institutional successes and strategies within and outside the University
enhance direct engagement with students, staff and other stakeholders
role model behaviours in relation to digital capabilities
Our work is underpinned by a data gathering exercises, mapping how Vice-Chancellors of all UK universities currently use social media, with specific focus on Twitter and LinkedIn. We have selected these channels because of their widespread use in prof4essional contexts. The quantitative data we provide will establish how regularly these senior leaders use social media and what reach they have with particular networks.
This will be complemented by a number of detailed case studies, looking at how individual Vice-Chancellors build their networks through disseminating interesting and valuable content. Qualitative analysis of the nature and tone of engagement employed by Vice-Chancellors will help illustrate to what extent they reveal individual personalities, humanising themselves, their roles and their examples of student engagement using social media, asking of the greater visibility and personalisation for senior institutional affiliation and belonging amongst the institution’s student body.

Instead we focus on the business implications, how to leverage what is going on in the market, how to create a strategy, build an executable social media engagement plan and select the right tools for a given strategy.
* The implication of the social customer to any business
* Social Media as a corporate strategy
* A sound plan from assessment to execution
* Selection criteria for social media tools

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.

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

Established a few best practices How much time does SNS take?Creating the account should take you about half and hour or soThe most amount of time will be setting up your account. Decide what information you will post on your page. Much of this information is already on your website or your job/internship database so its not NEW information, just repackaged.1hr per day Three 15-20 minute checks are average for us.The first in the morning to respond to any comments from the day beforeThe second at 11am to 12pm to hit “followers” during lunchThe last around 3-4pm to respond to any immediate comments How can we build our “fans”?- Have your students staff add as members to your network and invite their peers—for viral growthAdvertising campaign can include adding information to your website, newsletters, campus flyers, and staff email signatures.Do videos need to be professional?Functional needs to be determined by your social media policies.SMS are not OFFICIAL so it is ok to host “gorilla” footage as long as your min policies are meetSome of DPU CC policies are that the camera not be shaky, the subjects be facing into the camera and the shot be in focusTransparency, ease of use and accessibility are more important than getting a crisp “professional” video posted.The professional post can be a long term goal, but short term needs can be satisfied with “gorilla” student produced/edited footage.

The structure and formula of the new series will ensure repeat traffic, support and elevate the awareness of the Career Roadmap, and is positioned to support the eventual launch of the restructuring of the Career Center's web pages. Beyond the web video series, a whole process was devised whereby new projects have the opportunity to emerge and a clear presentation was developed to help CMM understand the complexity/value of planning in video production while keeping it accessible and keeping it from being prohibitive.
