Modified methodology, based on Guide to Monitoring eLearning Deployments (Intel & SRI, 2011) !20.

That can’t possibly be true. MARK (V.O.) It is. ERICA (V.O.) What would account for that? MARK (V.O.) Well, first, an awful lot of people live in China. But here’s my question: FADE IN: INT. CAMPUS BAR - NIGHT MARK ZUCKERBERG is a sweet looking 19 year old whose lack of any physically intimidating attributes masks a very complicated and dangerous anger. He has trouble making eye contact and sometimes it’s hard to tell if he’s talking to you or to himself. ERICA, also 19, is Mark’s date. She has a girl-next-door face that makes her easy to fall for. At this point in the conversation she already knows that she’d rather not be there and her politeness is about to be tested. The scene is stark and simple. MARK How do you distinguish yourself in a population of people who all got 1600 on theirDEADLINE.com SAT’s? ERICA I didn’t know they take SAT’s in China. MARK They don’t.

  • About-Asana.Pdf
    About Asana Asana is a leading work management platform that helps teams orchestrate their work, from daily tasks to strategic initiatives. Asana ​adds structure to unstructured work, creating clarity, transparency and accountability to everyone within an organization—individuals, team leads and executives—so they understand exactly who is doing what, by when. Our co-founders started Asana because they experienced firsthand the growing problem of work about work, or internal coordination. Instead of spending time on work that generated results, they were spending time in status meetings and long email threads trying to figure out who was doing what. They recognized this pain was universal to teams that need to coordinate their work effectively to achieve their objectives. As a result of that frustration, they were inspired to create Asana to solve this problem for the world’s teams.

With awe-inspiring ex­ pertise, clarity of thought, and engrossing writing style, Jane McGonigal cleanly exploded every misconception I’ve ever had about games and gaming.

Social media penetration rates in the Asia-Pacific region key driver for people to go online.1 It is one of the top activities on the Internet, particularly in developing countries, and is often people's first experience with the Internet.2 These platforms have surged in popularity, in parallel with the growth of mobile technology and tend to be optimised for mobile use. Social media sites have mainly been used for communication, but they are also creating new business models and incorporating multiple services (e.g., shopping, e-payment and banking, and 3 arranging transportation).

Stewart a and Cory Youngb aDepartment of Communication, University of North Florida, Jacksonville, Florida, USA; bDepartment of Strategic Communication, Ithaca College, Ithaca, New York, USA ABSTRACT Social media platforms in uence the ow of information and technologically mediated com- munication during a storm. In 2015, Stewart and Wilson introduced the STREMII (pronounced STREAM-ee) as a six-phase model for social media crisis communication in an e ort to assist institutions and organizations during unanticipated events, using the crisis of Hurricane Sandy as an applied example. Since the inception of the model, several advancements in social media strategy have revealed the opportunity for further development. This current work presents a revision of the original model, emphasizing the need for ongoing social listening and engage- ment with target audiences. These aspects of the revised model are discussed in interpersonal and organizational contexts related to examples of social media use during the October 2016 Atlantic Hurricane Matthew. KEYWORDS: Social media; crisis management; situational crisis communication theory; STREMII model; Hurricane Matthew The events of Hurricane Matthew in October 2016 resulted in a dev- astating crisis which was fully depicted via social media to engaged audiences. This hurricane event occurred during a time of innovative developments among several social media outlets, including Facebook Live, safe check-ins, and SnapChat stories.

  • From UX to CX: Rethinking the Digital User Experience As a Collaborative Exchange
    From UX to CX: Rethinking the Digital User Experience as a Collaborative Exchange May 2017 Collaborative Exchange / 2016-2017 What makes for a valuable user experience – one where customers extract value and the firm captures profit? Recent A New research has pointed toward technology as the catalyst for structural changes that allow firms to become more open- sourced via digital platforms, creating a competitive advantage. Indeed, platform structures have brought together producers and consumers in high-value exchanges.1 Yet there is still much to learn about how customers determine whether they have received value from these exchanges. It’s rather obvious why a firm would want its customers to solve Prism for their own problems via peer-based support forums, for example (for call-center savings, as in the case of Apple). But why would customers agree to do the firm’s work? What kind of value do they receive in return? In a desire to welcome User Experience a new age of digital technology and prescient algorithms, we must be mindful of ignoring the human element in the user experience. Firms that successfully create win-win dynamics are well positioned to create customer value and reap in a Digital rewards like loyalty and efficiency. Yet there remains a relative paucity of discussion about the customer side of the digital economy and how insight-driven design must complement data collection. Economy We seek to address this gap in knowledge by developing a framework that evaluates the four kinds of value – economic, cultural, social, and information capital – that customers expect in their exchanges with firms in a digital economy.
