  • Client: “The ‘V’ is too pointy.  Can we get a ‘V’ that isn’t pointy?”Me: “An un-pointy ‘V’ may start to look like a ‘U’…”Client: “We don’t want a ‘U’. We want a ‘V’ that doesn’t have a point.”

    For humor purposes. You guys may not realized this but some of you may sound like this…only designers understand it. Non designers who think they are designers….move a side! Let the big boys lead the way yo!

      Dr Ashley, I agree with you and posting a question at the beginning of the video is an excellent strategy. That is how I learn. I need to know the question upfront so that I know what to pay attention to in the video.
  • Embed short graded or self-assessments either in the video itself, or at the end of each video. Including one or two multiple-choice questions or requests to post to a forum—either between scenes (using a post-production editing tool such as Camtasia or Captivate) or after the video—alerts students to the “take homes” they should be getting from the material. It also helps teachers assess, at point of contact, whether students understand the major concepts.

      This (self assessment) is absolutely necessary to give learning a chance to happen, as we develop open learning courses. This applies to Google Sites training resources out there.

Web 2.0 Technologies

    My instructor from Penn State U shared his thought on the podcast. "I was very intrigued by his reference to Alan Kay when he talked about how the tools shape us via our interactions with them. Kay was (and is) most definitely one of the most visionary and original thinkers when it comes to technology and its applications. To be sure, this point about how the tools shape us is a very good one to emphasize. Tools are not innocuous things and metacognitive awareness can help both teachers and learners think about how their perceptions of ideas, concepts, etc are influenced by the tools they use to express their understandings of these things that they encounter."

    Nice find. I wonder how many other folks in and outside NIE will be open to this form of signing. Maybe it is time to push those who are willing to explore this option!
  • Sally Loan on 15 Jun 12
     
    I have tried that. 5 forms for free version. Unlike Doodle, you can remove the old item and free up for new added item. Once the form is signed, no way to remove it. The paid version is USD$49 per month for business and mobile ready. I understand that CUS has also subscribed to some kind of signing software, will check that out.
  • Sally Loan on 15 Jun 12
     
    I understand from Lay Choo, It is also under CUS roadmap to implement signature software to campus if they find the signature software good. They are now using eSignDoc from softpro. I recommend RightSignature to her instead :)

7 Tips for Igniting Your Content With Social Media - 1 views

  • "Content is fire. Social media is gasoline."
  • 1. Know Your Audience If you don't know who your audience is, how will you ever connect with them? Most brands have an understanding of their audience's demographics - age, gender, HHI, ethnicity. But you have to go beyond these statistics to get a better understanding of their interests, needs, mindsets, and behaviors to truly make a connection and become an important part of their lives. In addition to the standard methods of audience discovery - industry research, focus groups, and brand surveys - you can also use social media data to build audience personas. Social monitoring software, Facebook Custom Audience, social referrals to your website, and question-and-answer sites are just a few of the sources you can use to learn more about your audience.
  • 2. Provide Value Your content must provide some type of value to your audience. That value could be education, increased productivity, entertainment, or cost savings. To the consumer, it shouldn't seem like marketing, even though we know it is by nature. It's providing long-term awareness and brand recall. It's making sure your brand is right there with the consumer at each step along their path to purchase so that when it comes time to make a decision, you're the first brand that comes to mind.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • 4. Look Beyond Facebook and Twitter Creating content doesn't automatically mean users will come consume it and engage with your brand as a result. You must draw attention to the content through owned, earned, and paid methods across a variety of channels, not just the big ones. Ask yourself how else you can maximize the value of each piece of content and each campaign: Can you make the content more visible and sharable on your website? What other social channels does your audience use besides Facebook and Twitter? Can you use sites that accept submissions of specific content, like Visual.ly for infographics or Online-Sweepstakes.com for contests? How much are you able to pay to distribute your content on sites such as Outbrain or Taboola? Are you using Google+ to link to content on your website? (If the answer is no, I urge you to start today. Google+, while lacking in the engagement department, has a major impact on organic ranking.)
  • People share things not only because those things look good, but because those things make them look good.
  • 7. Measure Success Before creating a single piece of content or posting one Facebook message, determine the objective of your content and what metrics you will use to measure performance.
  • hile the specific metrics in each bucket will vary based on your strategy, objectives, and resources, some common ones are: Awareness - impressions, reach, mentions Consumption - clicks, visits, referrals Engagement - likes, shares, +1s, time on site Actions - leads/sales, PDF downloads, newsletter sign-ups, site navigation

    After viewing the video, I understand better of what is Self-directed learning (SDL) and collaborative learning (CoL) means.
  • Obi-Wan Fareed on 15 May 11
     
    in CoL, perhaps the tasks have to be such that students are inter-dependent on each other. This would then promotes interaction amongst students. A simple task would end up in a divide and conquer as shared by Dr Cheah.

    this article makes me understand it's not how colorful or tons of materials or fanciful stuffs or brochure you feed to your audience's eyes. It is about delivering the kind of services we want, good customer support,quality content or sincerity to help them out and associating those services with the logo or brand. We should think more of the audience point of view to solve their needs than appearing more pushy.

  • Because copyright law can be complicated, education is critical to ensure that our users understand the rules and continue to play by them. That’s why today we’re releasing a new tutorial on copyright and a redesigned copyright help center. We’re also making two changes to our copyright process to be sure that our users understand the rules, and that users who abide by those rules can remain active on the site.
