ROUNDTABLE TECHNOLOGY - Twitter
Twitter is a great medium to involve people who are not physically present in our dialogues; one aim of live tweeting at conference is to let these people follow our ideas and join in or create a conversation about these ideas if they so wish.
We ask Tweeters at the Roundtable to adhere to the following set of guidelines: Always Tweet using the conference hashtag #Lead4ECE. If a session chair, speaker or other attendee asks you to stop live Tweeting, please stop. Attribute correctly and clearly: begin Tweets of a paper with either the name or the initials of the speaker, so that readers of the Tweet can recognize whose ideas are being reported. Be considerate to other attendees: ensure your device’s sounds are off. It may be worth considering sitting at the back or the side of the room. http://ceelo.org/ceelo-events/ceelo-roundtable/ | www.naecs-sde.org/annualmeeting 30 If a follower asks a question, feel free to relay that question to the speaker during the question session, and report the answer back; questions from people in the room should, however, always take precedence. Tweet as little or as much as you like, about whichever aspect of the conference you like. Keep to a high standard of collegiality and professionalism. Keep in mind the very public nature of Twitter as a medium. Consider confidentiality issues before posting photographs Be civil, professional, and polite (and beware that ‘tone’ is difficult to discern from a Tweet); the medium is very public, so do not Tweet what you would not say in public.
These Hot Tips for using Twitter to enhance your conference experience are from a post by Dan McDonnell, Community Manager for the American Evaluation Association.
Hot Tip: Know Your Conference Hashtag. For this Roundtable it is #Lead4ECE – Whenever you have some downtime, or are interested in hearing your fellow attendee’s reactions to certain presentations or sessions, search the hashtag to see what people have to say.
Hot Tip: Share Your Experience—Part of getting the most value out of social media is by being, well, social. Use Twitter as your personal digital notepad by: . Tweeting out neat data points or insightful thoughts from speakers . Sharing your own reflections on the content and topics being discussed . Join the conversation by @replying to other users Tweeting on the hashtag . Posting photos from the event . With all of the above, be sure to include the conference hashtag #Lead4ECE to join in with the larger conversation.
Hot Tip: Connect with Others – Follow people on Twitter who are using the conference hashtag #Lead4ECE, as chances are, you’ll have a lot in common. Give conference speakers and presenters on Twitter a shout out, using their Twitter handle, especially if you enjoyed their session.
By following along with the conference hashtag, you may also uncover (or share!) great recommendations on sightseeing, local cuisine and the best place to grab a coffee near the hotel or convention center.
