The key steps to developing a social media strategy are to 1) tie social media goals to the organization's mission and objectives, 2) decide which tools best meet those goals, 3) develop engaging content, 4) assign owners and define the audience, and 5) create an implementation and evaluation schedule. The strategy should leverage various social media tools like blogs, videos, podcasts, and social networking.
Reaching Generation C (ASTD International Conference and Exposition)Andrew Krzmarzick
When you think of the typical Web 2.0 user, you probably envision a Millennial or Generation X, right? You may be surprised to learn that Boomers are the fastest growing group at social media sites like Facebook and Twitter, with the average age on LinkedIn being 40 years old. I use the term "Generation C" describe all people who engage one another on the Internet with a 2.0 mindset: creative, collaborative and community-oriented. I also give several ideas for bridging the generation gap in our workplaces and classrooms through social media.

This document discusses the benefits of virtual worlds like Second Life and provides an overview of its features and uses. It notes that Second Life allows for engagement, immersive education, collaboration, discovery, productivity and more. Many businesses, schools and organizations have a presence in Second Life, including over 100 universities. The document outlines some of the activities people can do in Second Life like meetings, concerts, events, information sharing, outreach and more. It also provides resources for educators and researchers interested in using Second Life.
This document summarizes a presentation on social media and Generation V. The presentation has 4 parts: defining social media, addressing whether it is just a passing fad, exploring its role in learning and development, and outlining potential uses. It notes that over 50% of online households use Facebook and discusses other popular sites like Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube. The presentation also examines generational differences in social media use and argues that Generation V, those who rely heavily on social media, is an emerging group that will drive its continued importance. It provides examples of how organizations can leverage social media for tasks like training, knowledge sharing, and marketing events.
Social networks have become highly popular in Latin America, with penetration rates around 90% in some countries. Facebook is the dominant social network, and Latin American countries have some of the highest Facebook usage rates in the world. While smartphones are not yet widely used, mobile adoption is growing rapidly across Latin America, fueling further social media engagement. Social networks are integrated into Latin American culture due to influences like extended family and social orientation.

Social media, Gov 2.0 and government workersJD Lasica
At the annual conference of the American Society for Public Administration in Las Vegas on March 4, 2012, JD Lasica and Chris Abraham of Socialmedia.biz will be giving a Super Session on social media strategy for public sector managers and employees. This presentation covers topics such as the importance of a social media strategy, metrics, SEO, keywords, Gov 2.0 sites, and lots more.
The document discusses the current state of social media. Some key points made include:
- Social media usage and content sharing have grown dramatically in recent years, with billions of minutes spent on Facebook and videos/images uploaded daily.
- Major brands and organizations have increasingly adopted social media strategies in their marketing.
- Social media has leveled the playing field, allowing individuals and groups to connect and organize in new ways. Events like political protests in Iran have been amplified through social media.
Technology across the Generations: Using Educational Technologies to Engage M...sondramilkie
This document provides an overview of how different generations use technology based on data from the Pew Research Center. It finds that younger generations such as Gen Y (Millennials) and Gen X engage more with social media, entertainment, and communication technologies, while older generations focus more on activities like email, searching, banking, and getting health information online. The document discusses implications for professionals working with multiple generations, such as those in UWEX, and provides examples of technologies that different generations commonly use.
The document discusses the rise of social media and its impact. It notes that social media has transformed people from passive content consumers to active publishers. It provides statistics on the growth and usage of major social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube. It discusses how both individuals and businesses can benefit from social media engagement and provides tips on using different social media tools and overcoming common objections to using social media.
The document discusses some of the negative impacts of social media, including cyberbullying and catfishing. It provides statistics showing that cyberbullying is common, with 43% of children reporting being bullied online and 1 in 4 saying it happened more than once. Catfishing, where people pretend to be someone else online, is also discussed. The document suggests that both cyberbullying and catfishing stem from issues like loneliness, low self-esteem, and a desire to harm others. While social media allows people to connect, it can also encourage people to create fake personas and identities online.

Stories of a continent solving real problems, not #FirstWorldProblems!
This document provides an overview of social networking tools like Facebook, discussing how they are changing daily lives and business. It notes that social media is now the number one online activity, surpassing pornography, and that people trust peer recommendations more than advertisements. The document also shows statistics on the rapid growth of Facebook's user base from 50 million in 2007 to over 400 million today.
This document discusses the concept of participatory culture in developing countries. It argues that while access to information is important, the goal should be providing access to participation. Participation looks different in developing countries, where it is largely mobile-based due to differences in technology infrastructure. Participation can take many forms, from rich media creation to simple contributions through tools like Ushahidi. Even small acts of involvement, connectedness, and conversation, such as question-and-answer sessions over mobile messaging, can foster a sense of participation.
This course examines the role of technology in political activism. It discusses how social media has impacted authoritarian regimes and whether it can enable long-term activist campaigns. Key issues include social media's ability to quickly report events and organize protests, though setting up blogs only helps if people post despite risks of arrest. The impact of social media is less significant in the US than transitioning countries. Case studies of specific tools and campaigns will be compared to analyze their affordances and limitations within different political contexts.

The New Journalist in the Age of Social MediaJD Lasica
In the age of social media, what should be the role of the New Journalist -- not one who works for a traditional news organization but a social entrepreneur launching a media project for a nonprofit?
The New Journalist at a nonprofit or startup will be a storyteller and multimedia producer but will also have to take on additional roles:
• entrepreneur
• conversation facilitator
• social marketer
• futurist
• metrics & research nerd
Here's my presentation for the New Media Lab on Nov. 23, 2009, in San Francisco, bringing together new media innovators to kick off a year-long project covering nonprofits, journalism and social media.
The focus is on how to leverage social media for Doing Good 2.0
1. The document discusses the growing use of social media and networking tools by government agencies and professionals to connect, share information, recruit and retain personnel.
2. It provides examples of how different government organizations at the federal, state and local levels are using tools like Twitter, LinkedIn, Flickr and GovLoop to engage with the public and each other.
3. The emergence of these new technologies helps address issues around an aging federal workforce and "brain drain" as many personnel become eligible for retirement in the coming years. Knowledge transfer between employees of different generations is key.

The presentation covers statistics on social media usage and growth, how it has evolved, and steps institutions can take to engage online communities through conversations and relationships on social media platforms.
Millennials have grown up in a digital world and are the first true "digital natives". Social media is deeply ingrained in their lives and how they connect with friends. The document discusses how millennials use various social media platforms much more than older generations as their primary means of social connection. It also explores how social media is still evolving, with new platforms focusing more on integrating the online social world with real-world physical locations and interactions. Millennials strongly identify being digital as the biggest difference between their generation and previous ones.
A look at millenials, who they are, the emerging technologies they're using, how social media is being used in the workplace and some guesses at the future of technology.
The document discusses information literacy (IL) and its importance. It states that to be information literate, one must be able to recognize when information is needed, locate and evaluate needed information, and use it effectively. It emphasizes that IL is key to lifelong learning and empowers people to seek, evaluate, use, and create information effectively. The document also discusses concepts related to IL such as the information paradigm, IL and lifelong learning as a continuum, and Web 2.0 technologies.
The document discusses different generations and the rise of "Generation C", who actively uses social media and engages others online in a collaborative way. It suggests that 58% of people could be considered part of Generation C and that the internet is becoming like an ancient marketplace where people share stories and information. Finally, it recommends that governments look to harness new collaborative models enabled by technologies like wikis and user-generated content to transform and improve the public sector.
This document provides an overview of social media including definitions, national trends in usage, types of social media and examples of uses in education. It discusses how pedagogy should drive technology use and issues related to social media. Key points include that social media is defined as social instruments of communication, teens and young adults are heavy users of social media and mobile devices, popular social media platforms include Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and blogs. Social media can be used to communicate, share multimedia, collaborate and entertain. Constructivist pedagogy and active learning are emphasized. Issues discussed include privacy, ethics, identity protection, cheating and bullying.

It then provides views from Gavin Marshall of AAR Group on key issues clients face with social media, such as navigating different agency perspectives and measurement. The document concludes by thanking the presenters.
Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia that functions as a democracy on the internet. It allows anyone to edit its pages and contribute information, creating a collaborative global project. However, its open structure also makes it susceptible to manipulation. While Wikipedia excels at spreading knowledge and has benefits of decentralization, special interest groups and biased editors can abuse the system to spread misinformation. Both the positives and challenges of Wikipedia's open democratic model were discussed.
