Our last fig harvest on Sunshine Acre as I moved Jan 2012 to live with Marcel in Corpus Christi. We still own the acre, but the renter rightfully gets to enjoy the harvests of figs, pomegranates, blackberries, jujubes, and grapes.

The Gutenberg printing press in the 1450s opened new technology that affected the everyday world. This change was part of a disruptive force on church and society – a Copernicum Revolution. New ways of learning and new resources became available. What happened then was a gradual, profound change not just in the ways people communicated but, in the ways, people thought and the ways in which they formed meaning. I believe similar changes are unavoidable now and in fact are already happening. Digital Culture is surrounding us in a variety of ways, is real and can no longer be feared or ignored in the Church. Today’s workshop will provide a place to begin exploring what is meant by Digital Discipleship and/or Digital Ministry.
In the 50th World Day of Social Communications message, entitled Communication and Mercy: A Fruitful Encounter, Pope Francis said that “emails, text messages, social networks and chats” can be “fully human forms of communication”.
“It is not technology which determines whether or not communication is authentic, but rather the human heart and our capacity to use wisely the means at our disposal,” the Pope said.
He added: “Communication, wherever and however it takes place, has opened up broader horizons for many people. This is a gift of God which involves a great responsibility. I like to refer to this power of communication as ‘closeness’.”
Goals:
• To raise consciousness – What does it mean to “lead” at a time of transition often referred to as “middle space” in our evolving digital culture?
• To identify the new skills (best-practices) that are needed to effectively engage in ministry in our evolving digital culture.
The everyday world around us is utilizing tools and social media in their communications world. How are our parishes engaged in this digital communications world? What can parish clergy, staff, and parishioners do to engage others in this digital world?
Rather than lament the loss of a 1950s model where churches were typically the center of social of social and cultural life in American, how do we adapt to a world where technology is an integral part of everyday life?
Pope Francis recently said "that if guided by the Holy Spirit, we can discover opportunities to lead humankind toward God" by using the Internet. Is this opportunity one of being a DIGITAL DISCIPLE? Being a Digital Disciple involves being a real person with a passion to share goodness, faith, and more in an online environment. Is it possible? What is the balance of digital communication and authentic and direct human relations? Does it just involve social media or is there more? What does it mean to be connected? What is the "attitude" that I bring to the digital environment? As a lay minister, when I communicate in today's online environment, what are my family, friends, and parishioners expecting? Is proclaiming Christ in the digital era a work of youth or of all of us?
The Technology & Pastoral Planning workshop explores what is important while planning and implementing technology into your parish (or diocesan) Pastoral Plan.
Yes, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest are the often used tools in our parish digital spaces! Yet these social media tools remain the tip of the iceberg. A number of other tools are available to you! Just because they are strange names does not mean they are to be ignored and forgotten. Rather these twenty-first century tools can each be valuable additions to your ministry resources. Many graduates of our Digital Discipleship Boot Camp have been amazed at how easy and helpful these tools can be in ministry and evangelization. No matter what your ministry these are a gift waiting for you. Come and See! You will be wonderfully surprised!
Building the Future of Catechesis in a Digital WorldCaroline Cerveny
A presentation for the sponsoring groups of Dioceses of Owensboro and Evansville and St. Meinrad School of Theology for the Catechetical Leadership Institute.
This 21st century presents opportunities and challenges. What do today's catechetical leader and catechist need to know about technology? How do we employ technology to transform and enhance catechesis? What does it mean to accept the challenge of, and actively participate in learning new technologies? What catechetical materials exist in a digital format and are we ready for them? What technology standards do we need to move forward? Come to engage in a conversation as we ask ourselves, how do we catechize in a Digital World?

WEB 2.0 AND SOCIAL MEDIA
TOOLS – PART I

4. Web 1.0 was Commerce
Web 2.0 is People
- Ross Mayfield
Web 2.0 seems to be like Pink Floyd
lyrics: It can mean different things to
different people, depending upon
your state of mind.
- Kevin Maney
5. Introduction
• The concept of "Web 2.0" began with a
conference brainstorming session between
O'Reilly and MediaLive International in 2004
• The phrase "Web 2.0" hints at an improved form
of the World Wide Web
• Emphasizing tools and platforms that enable the
user to Tag, Blog, Comment, Modify, Augment,
Rank, etc.
• The more explicit synonym of "Participatory
Web"
7. No Products but Services
“There are no products, only solutions”
• Not what customer wants but why they
want
• A problem solving approach
• Simple Solutions
8. Customization
• Every individual is unique
• Some people want to be different
• Allow him to choose instead of forcing him to use
what you have made
• Make her feel at home
e.g.
– My yahoo, Google Homepage, myspace
– Firefox extensions
e.g. (This slide is better for reading online)
9. Focus on the “Long Tail”
• Reach out to the entire web
• To the edges and not just to the centre, to
the long tail and not just the head
• Leverage customer-self service
e.g. Google, StumbleUpon, orkut
10. Harnessing Collective Intelligence
Network effects from user contribution are
the key to market dominance in Web 2.0 era
The Wisdom of crowds – Users add value
– Amazon, ebay - User reviews, similar items, most
popular,
– Wikipedia – content can be added/edited by any web
user,
– Flickr – tagging images
– Cloudmark – Spam emails
11. Harnessing Collective Intelligence..
Some systems,designed to encourage
participation
– Pay for people to do it – ‘gimme five’
– Get volunteers to perform the same task
• Inspired by the open source community
– Mutual benefits e.g. P2P sharing
12. Harnessing Collective Intelligence
• But only a small percentage of users will go to
the trouble of adding value to your applications
via explicit means.
• Therefore web 2.0 companies set inclusive
defaults for aggregating user data and building
value as side effect of ordinary use of the
application.
• It requires radical experiment in trust
“with enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow”
- Eric Raymond
13. Benefits of Web 2.0
Recruitment:
Due to the cutting-edge underlying technologies and
usability-focused interfaces (the ‘cool’ factor)
Organizations adopting Web 2.0 tend to attract
sophisticated, high-caliber technical candidates.
Reduced cost:
Not only are Web 2.0 offerings low-cost, but the same
techniques can also be applied to existing (non-Web 2.0)
products and services, lowering costs.
For example, wikis can enable your users to build
documentation and knowledge base systems, with
relatively little investment from yourself.
14. Benefits of Web 2.0
Loyalty
The open, participatory Web 2.0 environment
encourages user contribution, enhancing participant
loyalty and lifespan.
Marketing/PR.
By taking advantage of the aforementioned benefits,
marketing and PR teams can implement low-cost, wide-
coverage, viral strategies.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Web 2.0 delivery mechanisms - such as Blogs and RSS -
significantly enhance search engine exposure through
their distributed nature

look like?
26. MindShift
One goal is to help expand our
understanding of communications
technology by exploring ideas
outside of the dominant worldview
and assist you in waking up from
what can be called “The Trance
State," an unconscious but
profound detachment from inner
and outer reality.

27. Brain Freeze
Brain freeze is your brain with all of
the new technology … kind of like
what happens when you eat ice
cream too fast. It is delicious, but
causes a brief headache.
Peace, love and blessings in
cyberspace, - Pam Emery
