From Social Media To Human Media - critical reflection on social media & some...Niels Hendriks
Ā
This is a presentation by Liesbeth Huybrechts & Niels Hendriks given at the Glocal Conference in Macedonia in 2009. It makes a critical reflection on so-called social media and presents some design methods and projects dealing with social environments.
There are many wonderful nonprofits and inspiring charities doing good work in in todayās challenging times. We wanted to spotlight those that were not only top-ratedābut that were also superior in leveraging social media across multiple channels.
Weāve included a selection of A+ rated nonprofits and charities from CharityWatch.com. We also tapped CharityNavigator.com for top-rated groups, based on its strict performance rating criteria. We then analyzed the social streams of those top picks, focusing on those nonprofits that were integrating as many platformsāat as a high a levelāas we could find. We were pretty impressed with the way these groups are leveraging the power of social. We think youāll like what we came up with ...

Virtual Communities for Professional Development and Growth
How do we promote the knowledge, skills and sense of urgency for 21st Century teaching and learning among all teachers in our schools? As the physical and virtual worlds converge to become the 'real world' of teaching and learning, virtual exchanges, online mentoring and other Web-based environments will play increasingly important roles in educational reform. The presenter will share "lessons learned" from her seven years of experience in designing and leading virtual communities of practice.
Social media tools such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter became part of peopleās everyday life. Used well, they can add to your learning experience, and make you a better shepherd of your flock in the future. But used poorly, they can cause lasting damage to you and others.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as ādistorted thinkingā.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

1. Nurturing Communities
With Social Networking
Kristofer Layon

October 5, 2009

Good morning, and welcome to the second session in todayās social media track, entitled āNurturing
Communities with social networkingā. My name is Kristofer Layon, I direct web design and online
collaboration for the University of Minnesotaās central administration, and I want to thank you for
coming to my presentation.
2. 2
I would like to begin this morning with a basic premise that I have experienced myself: namely, that
social networking can nurture and even create community. Hopefully some of you have experienced
this already, too. If you havenāt, hopefully you can allow yourself to consider how this might work
for you. But before I go any further, I need to do what any good academic presenter does: review
some key deļ¬nitions, so that weāre all thinking about the same things.
3. community
A group of people having a
religion, race, profession, or
other particular characteristic
in common.
3
Thereās more than one deļ¬nition of community that informs todayās discussion. Hereās the ļ¬rst.
4. community
A group of people having a
religion, race, profession, or
other particular characteristic
in common.
4
As someone who majored in German as an undergrad, I often canāt keep myself from being a
language geek and, in this case, observing that the word ācommonā shares its root with
ācommunityā. Letās keep this in mind.
5. community
A feeling of fellowship with
others, as a result of sharing
common attitudes, interests,
and goals.
5
Hereās another deļ¬nition. I like this one even more.
6. community
A feeling of fellowship with
others, as a result of sharing
common attitudes, interests,
and goals.
6
āFeeling of fellowship.ā Think about this a moment. Perhaps you belong to a church or other
community organization, who can relate to the word āfellowshipā when you participate in an event
with other members of your group. Or, perhaps you recall the book āThe Fellowship of the Ringā
and think about what fellowship means in the context of travel and adventure. I think both aspects
are equally relevant for us here today.
7. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.
7
But hereās a third deļ¬nition. And isnāt this where it starts to get even more interesting?
8. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.
8
9. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.

10. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.
10
11. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.
11
Is anyone here today who is not representing the human species?
12. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.
12
13. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.

14. community
A group of interdependent
organisms of different species
growing or living together in a
speciļ¬ed habitat.

15. 15
So to remain philosophical here for another minute or two, what Iām trying to emphasize is that the
purpose of social networking is to create community. It can be used to bring different people
together around a common cause; or, share information that a group of similar people may ļ¬nd
interesting; it can even enrich a common environment and allow people to thrive, or perform at a
higher level. On the one hand, these are fairly profound things. But on the other hand, theyāre
rather simple and just basic to humanity.
16. principles of good social
media personae
ā¢ be factual most of the time
ā¢ be sincere and polite all of the time
ā¢ carefully weigh entering into politicsā¦
ā¢ ā¦or otherwise straying off-topic
ā¢ be human
16
I think by keeping the idea of persona development in mind as you update a Facebook page or
status, or Twitter feed, youāll do a better job of providing information and ideas that nurture a
group identity. Not keeping this in mind, or even being reckless with oneās persona online, can
quickly cause people to question your online sincerity. Just as they would in person.
17. 17
For example: over and over again, when I hear people talk about Facebook, I hear the same story. āI
use it to reconnect with people from high school.ā But what does this really mean? What makes it
enjoyable or important -- is Facebook really just about high school?
18. 18
Sometimes it can be, especially around reunion time (which I just experienced myself this summer).
But when you distill the assertion further, it really means that it is used to bridge distance and time.
Yet it is also used to keep people connected with shared interests, backgrounds, or experiences.
Perhaps their closest friends were on a team or in an organization together. These are aspects that
we must keep in mind; it regards more than just high school, but what drives people to desire and
maintain networks. Bridging distances; bridging time; sharing common ideas, information, or even
emotions.
19. 19
And yet we still often treat social networking as something high tech and cool, which can suggest
that itās not for everyone. But in reality, social networking on the Web is just a newer version of
things that weāve had around for generations. Web social networking is newspapers, plus television,
plus letter writing or sending cards, plus chatting, plus sharing photos, plus sharing referrals and
opinions on other media such as music and ļ¬lm.
22. 22
Letās not underestimate the value of blogging, despite it being so common now, and despite us
having grown jaded with peopleās passive-aggressive blog comments. A focused blog that is well-
written can still be a great communications tool. This is one of our blogs at the University of
Minnesota.
23. 23
If youāve seen this ļ¬lm or read the book, you know that the key element to the story is a blog
written by Julie as she works her way through Julia Childās āThe Art of French Cookingā.
24. 24
Itās a true story, and Julieās blog is still online. What more of an argument do you need about the
value of blogging, then it can lead to a book deal, and then a movie starring Meryl Streep and Amy
Adams?
25. Social
Networking
25
Weāre also using social networking sites like Facebook and Ning at the University of Minnesota.
35. Integrated
Social Media:
MinneWebCon
35
At this point, I would like to focus a bit more closely on a particular case study at the University of
Minnesota: our annual web conference.
38. 38
In the case of the Twitter account for our universityās web conference, MinneWebCon, our follow
count is about the same as our eventās attendance. Which, although it would be nice if it were
higher, is still pretty signiļ¬cant. It suggests that we have a loyal base of satisļ¬ed attendees, which
means that its organizers donāt need to be as concerned about ļ¬lling the event each year.
39. What was our Twitter
ROI for MinneWebCon
2009?
39
So besides our follows, letās talk about something else we can measure: our return on investment.
50. Integrated
Social Media:
Paperedtogether
50
Iām using this example because itās such an excellent case study. It shows a level of integration and
community-building that exceeds our web conference examples at the U of M.
51. 51
Paperedtogether is a printing studio in Minneapolis, and this is their web site. And itās the only
nonsocial aspect of their communications plan.
52. 52
Hereās paperedtogetherās Etsy page. As you might know, Etsy is sort of the Amazon.com of
handmade or artisan products. And, like Amazon, one of Etsyās strengths is its social aspect.
53. 53
And hereās their Flickr page. Itās quite similar to Twitter, when you think about it. Twitter is a
stream of text that can ļ¬t in a box. Flickr is a stream of photographic images that can ļ¬t in a box.
55. Some people have

56. What does social media
success require?
56
I believe that successful social media requires persistence more than anything. The implementation
of social media may feel instantaneous, but its successes do not come so easily. Like most
rewarding things, social media use requires time and patience.
66. 66
And out of that pattern you get something entirely different and with a new scale, and it represents
something else that is very new, uniļ¬ed, and whole -- despite it being made of many tiny parts.
This is your social community.
67. plan
67
So just as with running marathons, and making cheese or wine, a plan is essential. Thereās a
considerable distance between a bucket of milk and a bleu cheese, or a bushel of grapes and a
bottle of cabernet. Your social media plan should include frequency of updates, who is making
updates if there are multiple people involved, and any topical constraints and other protocols that
will keep your communications focused, reliable, and consistent.
68. patience
68
Logging into a social network might be able to give you instant gratiļ¬cation as a user, but donāt
confuse that feeling with a social networking content provider. Having an active community requires
patience. And even after your network is more established and mature, donāt expect to get replies
to status updates all of the time.
69. humility
69
Humility is important for two main reasons. First, people both love and hate experts. People want
expertise, and yet distrust people who act like they have all of the answers. So be humble in your
social communications: ask as many questions as you post advice, links, or tips. Second, pay
attention to tone as well as content. Even 140 characters can convey attitude: are you conveying the
right attitude in your updates?
70. persistence
70
Finally, donāt underestimate the amount of persistence required for establishing a successful
community with social networking.
