In a nutshell…
• I’m interested in the innovative applications of technology on education, business and society
• In particular, I’m currently involved in projects investigating:– Digital literacy– Social activism– Social CRM – Social shopping– Social learning
• But first, a bit of background…

“No more disruptive innovation, please”
![Page 6: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
I like these quotes…
“…alternatively, you can ignore this advice, close the blinds and gaze lovingly at your peer-reviewed papers. All I would say is: remember Betamax.” (Dan Stern in Times Higher , warning of the need for innovation in universities)
“If you don’t like change, you’re going to like irrelevance even less”
(General Eric Shineski, US Army Chief of Staff)
Eric Qualmann (video, 4 mins)

What technologies are being discussed here?
• “The modern world overwhelms people with data and this is confusing and harmful to the mind” (Conrad Gessner, 1565)
• “It will create forgetfulness in the learners' souls, because they will not use their memories.“ (Socrates, 469-399BC)
• “It socially isolates readers and detracts from the spiritually uplifting group practice of getting news from the pulpit” (Malesherbes, 1787)
• “It might hurt radio, conversation, reading, and the patterns of family living and result in the further vulgarisation of American culture“ (Ellen Wartella, 1962)
• “It’s making us stupid” (Nicholas Carr, 2008)
![Page 8: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The times they are a changing…
• Availability of free content (e.g. video of lectures) by global experts both in education and industry from the likes of MIT, Stanford, Harvard, Oxford
• University reliance upon the ‘Russell Group’ arrogance – but this is a 20th century brand.
• Expectation from students of flexible evening/weekend/online learning options, as they seek to maintain job and family commitments
• Accessibility and breadth of information now available online alters the traditional role of the lecturer as gatekeeper to relevant knowledge
• Difficult economic conditions and higher fees adjust the risk/reward calculation of attending university
• Student profile increasingly international and with a wide range of ages and work experience
• Princeton Uni now prohibits staff from signing away the copyright of their papers to academic publishers
• Currently there are calls to boycott reviewing for non-open journals

How many of these existed 10 years ago?

#caasoton
• Project details are available from the Digital Economy USRG website
• 13,000 tweets using the #caasoton hashtag• 430 photos on Flickr • Our Vimeo videos have been viewed over 2,100 times, with
viewers from 47 countries. • Nearly half of the 450 conference delegates used #caasoton
on Twitter before, during, or after the event • 70 people registered as ‘virtual attendees’ with some 20
additional twitter users joining in the conversations at random• The CAA Conference website has a round up of social media
activity

Defining ‘Content’
![Page 17: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Networking and building ties• social media allowed people to ‘meet’ others that they would not
have had time to meet if those tools were not being so extensively supported
• circles of contacts were strengthened and extended through conversations occurring on Twitter around a common topic
• they had identified new contacts with whom a connection was not apparent before engaging with their social media user profiles
• it provided a way to find out more about delegates who were at the conference, in order for new possibilities for connections to be explored
• increased interest in sessions being run at the conference therefore broadening the group of participants,
![Page 19: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Subject knowledge
• Twitter provided a safe environment to ask ‘silly’ questions that delegates would not be comfortable asking F2F
• A platform for conversations between individuals who were not together physically (because of differing interests)
• Online interactions made the subject matter more accessible for newcomers to archaeological computing
• Gaining ideas of topics that others found interesting• Additional tools and resources were referred to and linked to • Social media provided opportunities to follow up things that
were happening at the event and therefore lead to the discovery of further information, more quickly
• Individuals could identify relevant sessions and attend the most useful parts of the conference
![Page 20: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Challenges
• “If you have no social media account you are no one...”• “I think just looking at the twitter stream gives a
skewed idea of what people really think is interesting or noteworthy.”
• “It was hard to follow since so much posting was going on. I also felt like some folks were tweeting at the expense of hearing the presentations or discussion effectively.”
• “…. I just think people aren't good at multi-tasking even though they think they are.”
![Page 21: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Ethical issues
• Securing permissions - where are the public/private boundaries?
• relationship between making thoughts public (i.e. tweeting) and making broader interconnected narratives and opinions public (i.e. via data mining of tweets)
• Should social media data be archived, and how?
![Page 22: Lisa's research 10th oct 2012](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061115/54632dc9b4af9f4e1c8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Next steps
• we are exploring possibilities for a University-wide system or procedure for archiving tweets.
• investigating new ways of expressing context through mechanisms such as timelines and network visualisations
• Code of conduct for ethical storage and curation of social media (with Oxford E-research Centre)
• Case study for JISC Datapool project

Living and Working on the WebThis module focuses on the development of online identities and networks to enhance your employability in the digital age.
Specifically, it investigates how the digital world is influencing how we:
• collect, manage and evaluate online information – ideal preparation for dissertations• build an effective online identity for personal or career development• create and curate content via blogging and video production • interact with others for networking, team-building and project management purposes• deal with online privacy, safety and security issues• participate remotely in live events
Working in small groups, you will develop and deliver your own online seminars for assessment purposes, and engage in real time with a ‘real’ and ‘virtual’ audience at the University Digital Literacies Conference in May 2013.

Unconference #SXSC2
SXSC is an ad hoc informal gathering aimed at people in the creative industries/digital media who want to share their knowledge and learn about new developments. It is a combination of discussions, demos, participation and interaction. You can offer a talk, or a demo in one of the informal slots, or just come along and watch, talk to people, or demonstrate kit informally in the bar area. The idea is to get people talking and build up an informal network in the region, where beginners and experts can learn from each other, and make new connections. mobile/smartphone • social media • visual media • visualisation • gaming • augmented & mixed reality • design • metadata • webscience • linked data • motion capture • arduino • architecture •digital humanities • advertising • creative & performing arts • TV • raspberry pi • film & video • publishing • video games • collaborative working
