Information literacy and the future of workInformAll
Presentation given as invited talk at the European Conference on Information Literacy (ECIL), October 2017. The presentation explores the possible relevance of information literacy to the changing nature of work, and how it might contribute to equipping workforces to deal with the opportunities and threats associated with rapidly-changing economic environments - including flexibility, innovation, the gig economy, casualisation, insecurity and employment rights.

Imagining Social Work Education into the Future: Skills for Social Justice in...Laurel Hitchcock
Technology is profoundly shaping the world, especially in the delivery of education. Concurrently, services like telehealth, predictive analytics, and technology aids (i.e. Fitbits, apps and home listening devices) affect service delivery. Given these changes, how do social workers promote social justice and support privacy and equity? And consider needs of the vulnerable while harnessing technology for good? How does social work redefine the profession in the face of algorithmic solutions to human problems? This panel will introduce a dialogue about what’s happening, where are gaps in social work education, and how programs might reinvent in a rapidly-changing environment.

Public Relations in Society
Social media
Topic 9
Lecture objectives
• To introduce social media and its impact on
public relations
• To suggest that communication takes place in a
dynamic environment that poses new challenges
for professional communicators
• To identify some of these challenges for
communicating in an online environment
• To consider the implications for the ways we
conceptualise public relations and its role in
society
Introduction
• “‘Social media’ is the term commonly given to
Internet and mobile-based channels and tools
that allow users to interact with each other and
share opinions and content. As the name
implies, social media involves the building of
communities or networks, encouraging
participation and engagement.” (CIPR 2011 p. 4)
Challenges of the online
environment
• Challenges of the online environment
Conversations in the public domain
Publics become active rather than passive
Direct rather than mediated information flows
• Strategic media management
Publicity model vs relationship model
Digital media and channels
Website metrics and digital media KPIs
Understanding social media and
public relations – industry
attitudes
• Public relations practitioners were slow to
embrace new media and social media
• Barriers include staff, time, budget, along with a
lack of training and a fear of technology
• Practitioners trial social media for personal use
before adopting it in professional practice
• Practitioners increasingly use some form of
social media as part of public relations activity
Understanding social media and
public relations – theoretical
approaches
• Is social media really an opportunity for public
relations to ‘reinvent’ itself with a renewed focus
on dialogue and engagement? Or has nothing
really changed?
• With social media, public relations is a
distributed function performed by many people
in an organisation (Kelleher, 2009).
• There is a tension between organisational or
corporate voices and personal voices via social
media.
Publics and social media
• 78% of Australians use the internet, a figure
comparable with Singapore, Japan and the UK
(Fitch, 2012).
• However, internet access varies depending on
age, income, education and geographical
location.
• Social media allows geographically dispersed
publics to organise around a common issues.
Challenges for organisations
• The 24/7 commitment to social media erodes
professional and personal boundaries.
• Traditional approval processes are inappropriate
for social media, particularly in dynamic
situations.
• Organisations should develop clear policies and
procedures around social media use
(Macnamara, 2011).
• Much communication takes place online and
therefore creates new challenges for
practitioners.
Legal and ethical issues
• Social media challenges traditional notions of
copyright and ownership, exposing legislative
grey areas (Breit, 2007).

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.

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.

2. Outline
• Social media is a constantly evolving and creative
endeavour that necessitates a coordinated
institutional response.
• The pervasiveness of mobile devices and the
immediacy of online interactions present institutions
with unique challenges.
• The need to develop and maintain a consistent yet
nuanced voice across various platforms requires a
strategy that is well articulated and implemented.
• This talk will explore the relationship between policy
and practice whilst sharing best practices taking into
account the very nature of social media.
7. Noam Chomsky - Professor of Linguistics (MIT)
I don't look at Twitter because it
doesn't tell me anything. It tells
me people's opinions about lots
of things, but very briefly and
necessarily superficially, and it
doesn't have the core news. The
sources of news have become
narrower.

29. So – You need a social media policy?
• A directory of the institution’s social media accounts
and how groups can add to the list.
• Best practices that include tips about monitoring,
responding to comments and correcting mistakes.
Some policies even provide information on social
media strategy.
• Differences between personal and institutional use of
social media.
• Privacy recommendations for both personal and
institutional social networking.
• Copyright and fair use resources for images, video, text
and other content.
30. Staying safe
Proper social media ethics are a matter of law, not
personal preference.
• Require disclosure and truthfulness in social media
outreach.
• Monitor the conversation and correct
misstatements.
• Create social media policies and training programs.
31. Purpose of guidelines
• Create a training tool
• Set a baseline of best
practices
• Simplify a complicated topic
• Creative flexibility
• Planning ahead
• Measure for results

• Pick and choose your platforms
• Put guidelines in place
• Develop a consistent voice across platforms
• Empower and support individual departments
• Communicate across campus
• Social analytics and measurement
• Starting a movement
Section 2: describes seven building blocks of Social Media and illustrates the fundamental implications that each block presents to firms as they seek to fathom the engagement needs of their social media
The honeycomb framework presents seven functional building blocks: identity, conversations, sharing, presence, relationships, reputation, and groups. Each block allows us to unpack and examine (1) a specific facet of social media user experience, and (2) its implications for firms. These building blocks are neither mutually exclusive, nor do they all have to be present in a social media activity. They are constructs that allow us to make sense of how different levels of social media functionality can be configured.
These building blocks are neither mutually exclusive, nor do they all have to be present in a social media activity. They are constructs that allow us to make sense of how different levels of social media functionality can be configured.
In this Figure, we illustrate the example of LinkedIn (in the full paper we also display Foursquare, YouTube, and Facebook). The darker the color of a block, the greater this social media functionality is within the site.
