How to Manage and Analyze Social Media in Higher EducationKelly Peiffer
Kelly Peiffer manages social media for Manor College. She analyzes various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest to see what content and posting strategies work best. Facebook videos and posts about the vet tech program or sports teams perform well, while alumni posts do not. On Twitter, she aims to post 22 tweets daily using scheduling tools. Instagram and Pinterest are also growing in importance. Hashtags like #ManorVetTech that join ongoing conversations help expand reach. Consistent, diverse, visually appealing content posted at optimal times is key to successful social media analytics and engagement.
Omhe 2016: Snapchat at the University of Twente by Desiré van den BeldOMHE2016
Snapchat is one of the fastest growing social apps. No wonder organizations are exploring possibilities to integrate Snapchat within their social media/marketing strategies, also University of Twente.

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.

Individual photo and video files are preferred for easy reuse in multiple places.

Student Presentations: Ditch the TriFold and Ignite Passion & CreativityChristopher Casal
This document discusses moving away from traditional tri-fold presentations for student projects and instead embracing more creative and authentic forms of assessment that ignite student passion. It encourages having students tell their stories and share their learning through spoken word presentations, blogs, videos, or other captivating mediums rather than focusing on presentation boards. The goal is to make the student and their learning the focus, not the presentation medium, and allow their original voice to engage and inspire audiences. Examples provided include past projects from a school event called CapCon! that highlighted more authentic forms of student assessment.
Google Chrome: One of the Best Browsers for Educators - 081518Christopher Casal
Chrome is a free, versatile web browser that runs on multiple platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android. It allows users to sync their browser experience and tabs across devices when signed into their Google account. The browser also offers a web store with tablet-style apps and seamlessly integrates with Google products and services. As a result, the presenter argues that Chrome is the best browser for educators due to its free cost, ease of use across different operating systems, and tight connection to services commonly used in education like Google Apps for Education.
Chromebook implementation requires careful planning. It is best to start with a small pilot to test the devices on the network infrastructure and see how students and teachers adapt. Schools should understand their network's capabilities and device goals before deploying Chromebooks 1:1. Proper enrollment and management, such as with Google Admin Console or third party tools like Hapara, ensures the devices remain secure and accessible for learning. With the right preparation, Chromebooks can be deployed smoothly and provide students access to Google's education tools.
The document discusses presentation creation options for the iPad, focusing on Keynote, Google Slides, Haiku Deck, and ExplainEverything. It notes that while PowerPoint is absent from the iPad, Keynote and Google Slides are powerful free alternatives. Haiku Deck and ExplainEverything offer additional free and paid options for creating presentations on the iPad, with ExplainEverything offering both free and subscription-based versions. The document concludes that presentation creation options on the iPad are comparable to desktop operating systems and in some cases the iPad enables more powerful drawing capabilities.
The document discusses how to create comic books using Google Slides. It explains that shapes can be layered and colored in Google Drawing to create characters that can then be copied and pasted into slides. Features like arranging layers, coloring areas outside boxes, and adding narration/dialogue boxes allow slides to function like comic panels. Examples of clouds, hills, and signs demonstrate how effects are achieved. The presentation encourages attendees to think creatively and provides resources for comic examples.
The document provides tips and tricks for using Gmail on desktop and mobile. It discusses organizing emails with labels, filters, and settings. Key features covered include composing emails, formatting options, attachments, account settings, and switching between multiple accounts on iOS. The summary is intended to give a high-level overview of the essential information presented in the document.
This document provides tips and tricks for using Google Drive. It discusses the key areas of Drive including My Drive, Shared with Me, organizing files, settings and keyboard shortcuts. The document also covers using Drive on iOS and how to upload, share and organize files on mobile. It encourages organizing Shared with Me files by moving them into your own folders in My Drive.
This document discusses Chrome blocking Flash by default due to security and processing concerns. It provides instructions for allowing Flash on specific sites like Wixie and OneMoreStory. To do so, users control-click a Flash error, go to Settings > Advanced > Content Settings, and add the sites to the "Allow" list to enable Flash for just those sites. The document warns that some sites require the specific URL rather than using a wildcard domain exception.

• Twitter is but the entry point
• We Tweet, Vine, Instagram, Facebook…
• Social media for the transparent & engaged learning
environment
3. “Teachers are the social media ambassadors of
your school community”
-MR_CASAL #NYSCATE13

• Easy to keep “personal” and “professional” separate
• no one had a “personal” account
• It’s a quick, easy to use broadcast platform not
requiring viewers to have an account
