It's a strange world after all- Wim JanssensMonkeyshot
Monkeytalk Fall 2014
We leven in een zeer boeiend tijdperk. Zonder dat we het misschien zelf beseffen, zijn we allemaal onderdeel van een enorme verandering in hoe we leven en omgaan met elkaar en onze omgeving. Met enkele handige voorbeelden gaan we eventjes mee in de wereld van Wim die vooral gekenmerkt wordt door het constant in vraag stellen van vanzelfsprekendheden.

Managing Digital Footprints - for grandparents (March 2014)Wesley Fryer
This is a presentation shared by Dr. Wesley Fryer on March 12, 2014, at Church of the Resurrection in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The presentation explored what "digital footprints" are, why it's important for parents and grandparents to have regular conversations with young people about their digital footprints, how many misconceptions abound concerning teen use of social media, and what we can do to manage our digital footprints constructively.
This is the presentation I gave at the 2013 Digital Insight Summit Series. It talks about user experience design and it's place in product design. It also gives an overview of why UX is vital to business.
This PPT went through several revisions. I worked and worked on finding the best, most representative images wanting to create memorable pictures for my students. I shared the PPT with my mentor who commented on how much she enjoyed the presentation and how soothing it was. At that point I realized that adding music would improve the presentation. I searched through my entire library of music in an effort to find music that best fit the presentation. I struggled and finally learned how to add more than one song to a presentation. I am very proud of my final creation and believe my students will enjoy learning about symbols in literature as they view this Power Point presentation.

FailAgility; we have all seen it and let’s face it, we are all guilty of letting it happen in our organisations. So why is it that so many businesses fail to see the outcomes that the Agile values and principles promise?
This presentation looks at what FailAgility is and the three levels in organisations where it stems from:
Organisation, Leadership and the Coaching / Personal level.
We will discuss the types of FailAgility that we see at these different levels, the approaches that cause
FailAgility and most importantly what we can do to recognise and fix it.

Social Media Confusion? How to Choose the Right NetworkKyle Buyers
A webinar broadcast in the summer of 2012 (before I went back to school for Marketing), this presentation was the most highly-registered in our company during my time there and received very positive feedback from its attendees.
Today there are things I would edit and improve, including my overall strategic approach to social media - but that is the fun of working in an emerging field. Also, now that I have a solid educational background on the subject, I would use my new knowledge to bolster this presentation.
Thank you to all who attended the Parish Technology Summit at Villanova University. We explored the how and why technology needs to be an integral part of catechetical ministry in the 21st Century.
Today's students and families are immersed in a digital media world - via the Internet, iPods, computers, and more! How can we use these tools in school or parish settings with low-end or high end tech environments for faith formation?
Leveraging games lifecycle to increase revenue & retention
There is no longer any argument that mobile games have shifted from Premium to Freemium business models.
However, there are few who understand how to deliver this model effectively.
In this Webinar Papaya Mobile's Oscar Clark will take a look at the > different life stages of games and how developers can leverage this to increase the engagement and enjoyment for their players.
He will talk about how designers can predict the user-lifecycle stages of Discovery, Learning, Earning and Churning to get the most out of the flow of the game.
These are the design techniques employed by companies who have created mobile social games generating 15% conversion and ARPPDAU of $30+
The presentation explores viral videos in its entirety and explores the realization that many viral videos are created by large companies for profit and not for user entertainment.
