How social media is affecting communications in non-profit organizationsJukka Helin
1) The working environment for non-profit organizations in Finland is changing due to increasing social media and internet usage. More discussions are happening online rather than within organizations.
2) The role of communications departments in non-profit organizations must adapt to facilitating discussions between experts and supporters online. They should guide the organization on social media opportunities and track external discussions.
3) It is important for organizations to understand their audiences and how they participate online. Tools like surveys and analytics can provide insights into relevant subgroups and participation levels.
This document provides an overview of the Digital Business introductory session. It introduces the module themes, demonstrates FlipGrid and the ELE platform, and discusses how digital transformation requires reconfiguring business around social, mobile, analytics and cloud technologies while transforming organizational culture. It also explores the shift from pipes to platforms and how mature internet services are driving digital transformation across industries.
The document discusses emerging trends in technology and how they will impact higher education and IT services departments. Some of the key points made include:
- Mobility and portable devices like smartphones and tablets will become increasingly important for both students and staff.
- Open source solutions and shared services across institutions can help reduce costs while improving collaboration and innovation.
- Federated access management is needed to enable open content and networked learning across institutional boundaries.
- IT services will need to shift from control-oriented models to being more choice-oriented and hands-off to meet users' needs and empower innovation.
- Collaboration software will be essential to support more open and networked models of teaching and learning.
Cloud computing offers potential benefits for adult literacy programs by providing access to computing resources and services at lower costs. However, adult literacy in Canada currently faces challenges including a lack of coordinated policy and funding instability. While some programs utilize basic IT like websites and online courses, adoption of cloud computing has been limited due to issues like lack of access, trainer skills, and studies on effectiveness. For cloud computing to benefit adult literacy, strategies are needed to address concerns regarding security, infrastructure, and control by large companies.
This document discusses emerging technologies including Web 2.0, Web 3.0, social networks, web collaboration, mobile broadband, crowdsourcing, and provides an assignment to create a PowerPoint presentation about one of these technologies or trends, explaining how it affects people, business, or society, and why it is important, using examples and media.
Pre igf13 Collaborative Leadership Exchange Bali Workshop-Meeting Design+Mode...Ruud Janssen, DES, CMM
Background:
Capacity Building has become one of the essential requirements in order to foster meaningful participation in Internet Governance processes. The multistakeholder model for Internet development means that all relevant stakeholders - including governments, the private sector, civil society, and the academic and technical communities - have respective roles to play in shaping key Internet governance issues, such as access, privacy, security and many others.
Performing such a role requires, however, a deep understanding of the multidimensional facets of Internet-related issues, often spanning across policy, technical, social and economic underpinnings. Fostering cross-disciplinary knowledge and cross-sector cooperation through capacity building is therefore paramount to ensure that the next generation of Internet leaders is empowered with the necessary tools to address future challenges, whether at the national, regional or international levels.
In the past few years, a wealth of capacity building and fellowship programs have emerged to address these new requirements, engaging individuals from all regions in capacity development and exposing them to key Internet Governance fora, including the Internet Governance Forum.
Objective:
The objective of the Collaboration Leadership Exchange on Capacity Building is to bring together the staff and participants in the different sponsored programmes to the IGF to network, build relationships, exchange ideas, discuss key local / regional issues on Capacity Building and IG, and explore applicable solutions.
It is envisioned that this one-day session will contribute to building and fostering capacity building communities, and create a multiplier effect on the Capacity Building track throughout the IGF week, and beyond. All IGF participants interested in this topic will be welcome to attend.
The Collaborative Leadership Exchange will take the format of an unconference, with equal parts of peer-to-peer style learning and engagement, networking and relationship building, interactive discussions and promotion of increased collaboration between capacity building programmes in the Internet ecosystem (DiploFoundation, Freedom House, ISOC, IFLA, dotASIA, SSIG, APC, etc.).
Once the event has started, activities are determined and led by the persons in attendance. Instead of passive listening, all attendees are encouraged to become active participants, with the moderator providing structure for attendees.
Preliminary activities are designed to stimulate debate.
Attendees pick themes for the fishbowl sessions and within the group.

What technology is available which allows Global Virtual teams to improve their productivity?
This document discusses the challenges of social media for enterprises and how to manage electronic discovery related to social media. It notes that most information today is unstructured and unmanaged, including social media content created by employees. It defines social media and contrasts traditional enterprise data with social media data. It recommends addressing social media challenges through information governance policies, education, data mapping, and electronic discovery tools that can collect, preserve, and process different types of enterprise data, including ephemeral social media content.
The document discusses digital scholarship and how it relates to blogging, open access, and evaluating and rewarding digital work. Some key points discussed include:
- Blogging is social, democratic, can cover various topics professionally or informally, and can reach large audiences.
- Digital formats provide common distribution and social networks enable new connections, while openness facilitates these connections.
- Questions are raised around whether digital scholarship represents "proper" scholarship and how it can be recognized and rewarded through official routes like tenure.
- Alternatives are discussed for recreating existing evaluation models or generating new guidelines to include digital scholarship.
Networks have traditionally been based on social connections, but new technologies now allow networking on a wider scale. Social media expands the scope and nature of networks by providing open boundaries between networks and new entry points for members. This merging of networking knowledge with social media allows old practices to be done in new collaborative ways, such as working "wikily" through self-organizing networks with distributed leadership. However, these new possibilities also raise questions about ensuring quality, addressing information overload and privacy, and defining new models of leadership.
This document discusses web accessibility and the importance of digital inclusion. It notes that web accessibility creates online experiences that can be used by people of all abilities and ages. It is a key vehicle for digital inclusion and will become more necessary as social changes occur. The document provides practical tips for improving web accessibility, such as adding alt text to images, providing transcripts for audio and video, and ensuring sufficient color contrast. It also discusses compliance with laws and standards like the Disability Discrimination Act. Overall it promotes accessibility, inclusion, and equal access to online information and services.
The document discusses DGroups, a web-based platform that facilitates online knowledge networking among development professionals. It allows for the creation of email-based discussion lists and workspaces to support collaboration. DGroups aims to enable large-scale meaningful discourse and help people improve their lives through shared learning. With over 2,000 active communities and 151,000 members, DGroups provides a way for development organizations and professionals to communicate and exchange knowledge through email, which remains an important tool, especially in low-bandwidth environments.
Value Creation & the Evolution of Organizational Business ModelsPaul Di Gangi
This document discusses how business models are evolving due to changes in technology and society. It defines the business model as an organization's approach to creating and capturing value. Traditional closed models that keep knowledge internal are giving way to more open models that leverage both internal and external resources. The most collaborative model is the co-created model where organizations encourage knowledge sharing between internal and external stakeholders for mutual benefit. The document also discusses how information technology enables user-driven innovation and private-collective knowledge communities that blur organizational boundaries.
The document discusses the evolution of the web from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0 and open science. Key aspects of Web 2.0 include user-generated content, peer-to-peer interactions, and finding like-minded people. Web 2.0 enables cooperation and problem solving. The document also discusses how science can become more open through tools of Web 2.0 like social media, open access, and crowdsourcing solutions. It raises challenges to enabling more open science in Africa, such as policies prohibiting social tools and lack of bandwidth.
The document summarizes a panel discussion on social media in the enterprise. The panelists were Peter Hobby from USAID, Mary Abraham from an international professional services firm, and Kate Pugh from IBForum and AlignConsulting. They discussed their experiences implementing and using social media and enterprise 2.0 tools within their organizations. Topics included challenges, lessons learned, and best practices around social media adoption and knowledge sharing. The moderator was Tom Short from a global professional services firm.
Disruptive Technology and its Implications for University Information Serviceslisbk
This document discusses disruptive technologies and their implications for university information services. It notes that users want to adopt new technologies while services prioritize support and security. The author argues that institutions should embrace new technologies through education rather than control, get buy-in to update policies instead of just IT regulations, and focus on enabling users and building partnerships rather than just providing services. Guidelines are needed for appropriate and safe use of tools like social networks and blogs in personal and work contexts.
The document discusses how policing needs to adapt to changes in society due to new communication technologies and the internet. It argues that the concept of "community" now includes online groups that never meet in person. It suggests that policing should engage with online communities through social media to build relationships, understand cultures, and enable coproduction of services to reduce costs. Building relationships online can help offset cuts to policing budgets and manpower by allowing the public to take on more responsibility for their own safety.

This document discusses social learning and defines it as learning that is social by nature because humans are inherently social beings. Social learning aims to empower practitioners to form learning partnerships to create personal and organizational value. It can take the form of collaborative or informal learning. The document notes that social learning is not just a technical solution or communications channel, but a set of behaviors. While not entirely new, social media now enables social learning to occur across networks and a changing work environment. Success requires focusing on business needs, embedding social learning in workflows, identifying communities of interest, and cultivating trust through openness and transparency.
Solace digital leadership Masterclass (June 2014)Catherine Howe
Catherine Howe has worked in technology for nearly 20 years. Her research explores digital civic space and how social media can be used for democratic purposes. She is interested in digital leadership skills and how to work effectively in a networked society. Howe discusses how everything is changing due to factors like technological innovation, aging populations, and climate change. She argues that we need to change how we communicate and organize ourselves. Networks have become the dominant social structure, and citizens are more participatory through sharing, collaborating, and connecting online. Howe believes digital skills are needed for collaboration, co-design, social media use, research, data analysis, and agile project management. There is no single solution, and we must continue learning to work in

The Net Generation: Myths, Realities and Implications for Higher EducationMark Bullen
The document discusses claims about the "Net Generation" and evidence regarding their technology use and learning preferences. It summarizes literature on the topic and presents results of a study of college students. The study found that communication preferences were driven more by context than generation, and technology use was similar across generations. Implications are that assumptions about the Net Generation may be overgeneralized and not reflective of individual students' needs and contexts.
Using Web Tools For Personal Knowledge ManagementJoost Robben
This document discusses using web tools for personal knowledge management. It describes starting with a random tweet about serendipity, adding personal context, and digging deeper through conversation with one's network and additional research. The process culminates in writing a blog post and publishing it to a corporate social network to share the new knowledge with one's organization.
This document provides guidance to staff on writing incident reports. It instructs staff to learn about the purpose and proper formatting of incident reports. It then outlines best practices for titling reports, describing the chronological order of events factually, identifying student involvement codes, using descriptive language, and submitting the report in a timely manner. Following these guidelines will result in effective documentation of campus incidents.
This document provides an overview of incident reporting in a healthcare facility. It defines an incident and the main types: near misses, adverse events, and sentinel events. Near misses have the potential to cause harm but do not, while adverse events do cause unintended harm. Sentinel events result in major loss of function or death. The presentation outlines how and when to report each type of incident and the importance of reporting near misses to prevent future harm. It also describes the root cause analysis process used to determine why failures occurred and how to submit an accurate and thorough incident report.

Networks are social capital; where business value is created in relationships. Network analysis reveals the networks. CORE process identifies new market opportunities or innovation, improvess effectiveness, extends firms reach through stakeholder networks.
Digital Connectedness: Taking Ownership of Your Professional Online Presence Sue Beckingham
Developing pathways to connectedness essentially commences with family and friends, but over time new connections outside of these circles begin to form ever increasing and interlinking circles. These informal and formal networks have the potential to help you unlock new doors to new opportunities. Social media can without doubt provide excellent communication channels and a space to develop your network of connections. Nonetheless as your online presence expands it leaves behind both digital footprints and digital shadows; and this needs to be given due consideration. This keynote will look at the value of developing a professional online presence and why as future graduates you need to take ownership of this.
