Teaching social media to people who help people get jobs.
For the poll questions, I'm getting them to stand up and place themselves on a line. Example: I like technology question. One end is the I love it, and use it while on the toilet. The other end is, when I retire I'm throwing my smartphone out the window. Good mix.
Talked about some of the why's to use social media, then dove into how it might actually work.
Developing a professional online presence as a graduateSue Beckingham
Guest lecture for Law and Criminology students on developing a professional online presence. A spotlight on the use of LinkedIn as a professional networking tool looks at ten top tips to develop an effective profile.
Developing students’ employability skills through social mediaSue Beckingham
This session will demonstrate the importance of embedding the use of social media and technology within the curriculum to develop a range of graduate attributes and employability skills. Examples will be shared of how students can develop:
authentic learning experiences to develop confident digital communication and collaboration skills
ways to engage with employers through social media through professional social networking
students' digital capabilities (Jisc 2015) awareness of the importance of lifelong learning and becoming a digital lifewide learner (Beckingham 2015) employability skills which include social skills such as communication and teamwork which increasingly in the workplace is also taking place online.
It is important that the constant evolution of social media is understood (Beckingham, Purvis and Rodger 2015), and that students are given authentic learning experiences to allow them to learn how to use the affordances of these digital spaces in a professional context. Active listening and curation; online collaboration and communication; creativity and the ability to create digital resources using multimedia; and digital connectedness, are all skills that can be developed further through participation of digital activities set in the context of the students discipline. The ubiquitous use of mobile technology opens numerous opportunities for students to use their own devices for learning Nerantzi and Beckingham (2015).
Why is this important?
The annual survey produced by the CBI (Confederation of British Industry) considers employers' requirements for graduate skills and highlight the dissatisfaction that employers feel over graduates' preparedness for the workplace. Over half of businesses (55%) were not confident there will be enough people available in the future with the necessary skills to fill their high-skilled jobs (CBI 2015:6) and noted that "Businesses look first and foremost for graduates with the right attitudes and aptitudes to enable them to be effective in the workplace – nearly nine in ten employers (89%) value these above factors such as degree subject (62%)." (CBI 2015:56).
Key areas of concern in this report were communication and team working skills. In today's digital age these skills need to be demonstrated confidently both face to face and online. Increasingly the first contact an employer makes with a prospective candidate is online. Particular attention should therefore also be given to the development of a professional online presence.
Participants will also have the opportunity to share and discuss their own use of social media and technology to develop employability skills.
Social Media for Placement Networking:
Before, During and After
This presentation shares tips for making the most of social media for professional networking to prepare for placement, during a placement and directly afterwards.
Sue Beckingham presents tutor tips and Dalian Terry his experience as a student currently on placement.
With content marketing and social media continuing to boom, the number of channels to pay attention to is quickly becoming a complex process for most organizations. In order to help manage this complexity, companies are seeking a way to organize inbound marketing activities so that lead generation and contact management are channeled into a single repository. The foundation of capturing and storing this information is a vital part of any business strategy when it comes to acquiring and landing new clients.
In this webinar presentation (dated 4/19/12), Kevin O'Brien of echogravity will explore options to stage your marketing execution so that SugarCRM can serve as the repository for lead capture through various channels across your content, social and SEO marketing strategies. Arming your sales force with accurate lead data and intelligence on new opportunities can accelerate your business without losing opportunity information.

Workshop delivered at Nordic Careers Network Conference on 2 June 2010 focussing on the use of social media and web 2.0 technologies by higher education careers professionals and careers services. Examples of UK higher education careers use of Twitter, Linkedin, blogs, live chat for careers guidance, social bookmarking, online forums etc, and lots of useful links.
Last June, we first reported our diversity metrics, and today we wanted to give an update on our progress. Our latest numbers show encouraging results, and we are pleased with our progress. Each gain is the work of many. Our numbers also show where we still have room for much more progress, so we need to be relentless in our efforts.
When people talk about social media, they usually mention Facebook and Twitter. But for professionals who are serious about using social media to advance their careers, there's no better network than LinkedIn.
In this presentation, I provide some stats on why you shouldn't ignore LinkedIn. The presentation also provides some important details when filling out your LinkedIn profile.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

• Overcoming the “fear of making mistakes” that can be passed
from careers staff to students – too much attention on negative
aspects of social media
• Understanding overlap of stakeholders, how to work together
• Careers and alumni to share the generation of content
5. Careers – sharing the wins
• LinkedIn is an Intelligence gathering tool for career development;
the Alumni Tool gives legitimacy to careers advice, for finding
mentors, & volunteers
• LinkedIn bridges the gap between current students and alumni
• 'LinkedIn photo booth' at employability events
• Employers are global; LinkedIn enables careers staff to engage
globally
• Groups - Contacts not lost if staff member leaves
• Track DLHE non-responders and ask them to complete
6. Careers – development
feedback / requests
• LinkedIn Students app launching in UK in Autumn – designed to
help students explore career options:
https://lnkd.in/studentsapp
• Student / academic tariff for LinkedIn Premium would
encourage greater use (but students need to develop a strong
profile first to derive proper value)
• Analytics for Groups to judge engagement
• Ability to use a “Group ID” rather than personal profile in Group
communications
• Run more networking sessions / webinars for staff
7. Community
– the Challenges
• Joining the alumni page is a ‘rite of passage’ – it happens but
does not automatically inspire the person to engage with
content
• Justifying ROI of Groups without analytics/ visible engagement
• Idea of ‘successful group’ theoretical, no model examples
• How to overcome the lack of interaction in Groups – how to
generate meaningful, engaging content
• Deciding who should be allowed to be members of Groups
8. Community
– sharing the wins
• Successful Groups can be run by alumni volunteers (Durham)
• Your University Page (news feed), your website and other
channels, can all feed into Groups
• Creating weekly topics to get conversations started
• Networks enable students to connect with employers/alumni
globally
9. Community – development
feedback / requests
• Analytics for Groups to judge engagement
• Ability to enforce guidelines in breakaway Groups / get
breakaway groups to feed into parent alumni groups
• Leveraging more staff members to post / comment to
encourage engagement
• Using alumni volunteers to create more discussions
10. Content – the challenges
• Corporate Communications cannot control all social comment –
but how can it monitor, guide and positively influence activity
as much as possible?
• Comms still searching for the ideal tools to manage multiple
social channels
• How can Comms leverage a range of social content
contributors? E.g. from different faculties, departments, alumni,
students…
• How can Comms get VCs and Leaders to blog / post / contribute
content?
11. Content – sharing the wins
• Good content works on multiple platforms – don’t restrict to just Facebook
or just LinkedIn
• Be human - Don't be a robot: adapt your tone to increase engagement.
People and students respond better to people than logos
• Students and alumni are interested in campus imagery and video, such as
accommodation and memorable haunts – nostalgia is effective with alumni
engagement - e.g. SHU - Psalter Lane Art & Design building
• Good engagement user-generated content:
– Requesting alumni to share memories of graduation, photos - shows genuine connection
– Instagram takeover: letting students do the work – see this #SHUInsiders example
– The value of staff contribution - useful reference: "3-2-1: The art of employee-first content"
• Interactive video campus tour - good for several audiences (prospective students,
alumni etc) – plus “genuine” video gets more engagement - see Newcastle example
• Periscope v Facebook – see pros and cons in Matt Horne’s post
12. Content – the LinkedIn wins
• LinkedIn is a good place for showcasing research (top level) – this can then
link to more details / official repository
• LinkedIn now has #hashtags
– You can collate posts using the hashtag in the body
– e.g. search on #studentvoices (use the Posts filter for the results)
– (note : original URL works but is unwieldy; need to use a vanity url e.g. example)
• Sharing stories on LinkedIn University pages – Careers & Alumni Relations
work most effectively together (especially when able to leverage Academics!)
• Example of University using a Showcase page for specific audience content
= OU for Wales
• It's easy to post blogs on LinkedIn, and you can enhance your personal brand
as well as that of your institution (see here for more)
13. Content – development
feedback / requests
• In-tool analytics on social engagement with content
• Content Management & Scheduling - either in-tool or via 3rd party tools like Hootsuite
• Vanity URLs for university pages
• University Page Newsfeed - not lose posts after 30 days - ideally archive and retrieve
capability for page admin
• LinkedIn pages management via the app (or a dedicated app for this)
• Improved use of video content
• Alerts to Admin about new content (e.g. posts on LinkedIn) by staff and alumni
• Hashtags in body content should be clickable
14. Academics – the challenges
• Academics largely not on LinkedIn - only at the Business Schools -
so how do we get them motivated and up & running?
• Need to get Academics to publish - how? Create and leverage
champions, case studies?
• There are no UK academics who are LinkedIn Influencers - how
can we change this?
– LinkedIn response - need to get Academics posting regularly on LinkedIn, true
leaders in their field, and then propose case for elevation to Influencer status.
• Enforcing the use of LinkedIn in universities - staff fear overflow
of connection requests and recommendation requests - how to
help them?
15. Academics
– sharing the Wins (1/2)
• LSE – To appeal to Academics, need to change perception that LinkedIn is just for
getting a job
– At LSE, Academics collaborate with internal departments to get content posted –
they don't do it themselves.
• Birmingham
– Biosciences Academics not interested until shown the LinkedIn Alumni tool - now
see value
– Academics use other platforms e.g. Academia.edu to share papers / engage
community – can we share / link that onto LinkedIn?
• Leicester – Social Sciences – via weekly alumni events, academics saw the value of
LinkedIn, now started using it
• Warwick – Marcomms run social media training sessions for staff, and writing copy -
good for internal PR too.
• Aston – Running LinkedIn webinars for staff and these go down well.
16. • Important to get Academics active & influencing on LinkedIn
– Impact on own brand, university brand, attracting staff and prospective
students, current students / careers, alumni connections, research
– Like Warwick, can Marcomms run social media / networking / content
posting training modules for staff?
– Could Careers run LinkedIn sessions for Staff as they do for Students?
– Important to focus the teaching on LinkedIn as platform for networking /
connecting, and skills - not just for jobs / CV (stop obsessing on profile).
– LinkedIn is a good place for showcasing research (top level) – they can
then link to more details / official repository
• Enhancing your academic online presence using LinkedIn - useful Slideshare
post by Sue Beckingham (SHU)
• Development request
– Featured / Notable Academics (on the University Page)
Academics
– sharing the Wins (2/2)
17. Alumni – the challenges
• Can often be difficult to know when to stop things that aren’t working
• Challenging to determine whether to invest in expensive, flashy systems
• The data & contacts LinkedIn provides make it difficult to avoid
duplication/saturation when managing central record of alumni engagement
• Managing Groups since inactive groups are worse than no group at all
• Getting alumni to create content versus just generated by alumni relations team
• Publishing can be daunting, who is the right audience?
• Tough to get user generated research, establish what they doing and what they want
to see in terms of alumni relations/universities
• Challenging to determine what to measure, when (1 year on?), and managing data
from mentoring meetings
18. Alumni – sharing the wins
• Press releases and alumni stories have created improvement in engagement
• Use of short 6 digit code (on profiles) for alumni to show students which
alumni are willing to be approached by students (Manchester)
• LinkedIn gives relevant up to date contact details for events which is positive
• Working closely with Careers to generate effective content
• Use of guest editors to generate content for the day or week
• Get significantly more engagement than on Facebook
• Insights - communicating with alumni to identify/share why they started up
their own businesses
• Register content with strong engagement and create a handbook for getting
the best out of LinkedIn
• Contact alumni to get valuable data for rankings, accreditations, etc.
19. Alumni – development
feedback / requests
• How can Alumni Relations be alerted to alumni activity?
E.g. moved to new employer, new post, etc
• Ability to monitor alumni usage more closely
20. • Different requirements in different countries
• Cultural challenges in using photos - need to be aware of
different sensitivities across different cultures
• International students, particularly Chinese, do not use and
update frequently once returned to home country
International students
– the challenges
21. • Use of LinkedIn photo booth at Career Fairs targeted to
international students
• Target messages geographically using filters and alumni tool
• Key to approach for students to reach employers is through
alumni
• Using LinkedIn in conjunction with student ambassador scheme
International students
– sharing the wins
