This is Not Fine: Working on the Web in Higher Ed During Uncertain TimesGeorgiana Cohen
With trust in institutions declining, a combative political climate, and ongoing challenges to the industry, it’s a complicated time to work in higher education marketing. We face extraordinary pressure to differentiate our institutions, assert their relevance, and meet critical goals for recruitment and fundraising. Meanwhile, the student market is rapidly changing, new policies endanger higher education funding and access, and the stinging impact of these shifting tides is acutely felt across the campus community. Amidst all this, battle fatigue is real. And it’s easy to feel powerless.
But within the scope of our roles and abilities as digital communicators, we have tremendous opportunity to target and optimize critical messages, elevate access to indispensable resources, support the most vulnerable members of our communities. In an era of fake news, context, clarity, and expertise have never been more valuable, and the mission of higher education has never been more essential. In this session, I will discuss how the humble higher ed digital communicator can meaningfully and sustainably fight the good fight for both their respective institution and higher education at large. From strategies to subtweets to self-care, consider this session a how-to for higher ed web work in these trying - yet potentially rewarding - times.

Governance is all about creating structure and accountability to support your content goals. But in organizations where rigid hierarchies and legacy systems often still rule the roost, imposing new processes, roles, and guidelines (accompanied by new expectations and consequences) is much easier said than done. That’s why it’s important to prepare your internal community for governance through training and education, relationship building, and helping people understand the value and outcomes of their work on the website. Before implementing governance policies, find out how to prepare your community to embrace them more readily.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
