Event Twitter

ELI Annual Buzz on the Net

Submitted by cyang on Wed, 2008/01/23 - 12:20pm.

In addition to conversations occurring face-to-face in San Antonio, more than 125 participants communicated virtually using Twitter, an online application that is part blog, part social networking site, and part cell phone/IM tool. In 140 characters or less, the ELI 2008 Annual Meeting "Twitterati" shared URLs, posed questions to each other and speakers, and offered session reflections in real-time.

This tag cloud, generated from more than 1,000 posts, captures the most popular words shared across the annual meeting Twitter-space. "Students," "faculty," and "learning" dominated the event conversation along with sharing links to Web resources (which included being efficient with character limits by generating "tiny" urls). The large number of first-time users shared many in-the-moment references to the Twitter fun and experienced users discovered untapped dimensions for this Web 2.0 tool.

Citizen Journalism Video

Citizen journalism refers to a wide range of activities in which everyday people contribute to information or commentary about news events. The practice epitomizes the belief that the experiences of people personally involved with an issue present a different -- and often more complete -- picture of events than can be derived from the perspective of an outsider.

Student Videographers

How would students answer the question, "What would your ideal education look like?" See for yourself in the student content showcase, produced in collaboration with Apple. Five Apple student representatives will informally respond to the question through short videos they have created, which they will present in the Rio Grande West Ballroom at various points in the program.
