The Organizational Level 31 the Identity Level 32 the Experiential Level 33 Leadership Involvement in Each Level 34 Measuring and Assessing Brandraising’S Impact 35 ftoc.indd x 10/20/09 3:28:08 PM “Brandraising is a timely, critically important contribution for all nonprofi ts. As ‘competition’ intensifi es, resources dwindle, and senior executives are drawn to react in short-term crisis mode, it becomes even more vital that external (and internal!) communications stay as strategic as possible. The ultimate perception of ‘brand’ will be the extent to which the audience clearly understands the organization’s vision, and Sarah Durham gets this ironclad principle. With step-by- step sage guidance, Brandraising should be a dog-eared resource for perceptive chief executives in the sector.” —Mark Lipton, consultant on nonprofi t board strat- egy and professor of management, Milano: The New School for Management and Urban Policy “Brandraising is a must-read for any organization operating in the noisy and crowded nonprofi t arena today. Sarah Durham ‘fl ips the switch’ on our understanding of a holistic communications strategy. Like the architecture of the planning and implementation she encour- ages, the architecture of this book delivers a clear and smart message. Finally, in one volume we can fi nd the structure and the techniques any institution can use to place itself above the din.” —Nancy Schwartz Sternoff, director, Dobkin Family Foundation “Sarah Durham presents her considerable expertise with a smart com- bination of authority and accessibility that makes Brandraising a must- read for fundraisers and nonprofi t communications and marketing staff—no matter how long they’ve been in the business or the size and mission of their organizations. The book’s hip yet down-to-earth tone is a perfect refl ection of Sarah herself, as is its fi nely balanced respect for traditional strategies with a serious, forward-looking nod to new technologies.” —Margaret Battistelli, editor-in-chief, Fundraising Success ffirs.indd i 10/20/09 3:25:41 PM “If you lead a nonprofi t organization and you want to be successful, you better read this book—right now! In today’s highly fragmented and fast-moving world, it is important for an organization to have a strong brand. Scratch that—it’s necessary, critical, obligatory, unavoid- able. Nonprofi t organizations must demonstrate their vision, mission, values, objectives, positioning, and personality in every aspect of their work. If they don’t, their audience won’t engage, their issues won’t resonate, and they will fail. Creating that strong brand is no easy task. Navigating the process of building and maintaining brand can be frustrating and exhausting. Sarah Durham understands that. She has spent her life helping nonprofi t organizations build strong brands and communicate successfully. And now she has written a book that provides clear guidelines, valuable lessons, and powerful examples that nonprofi t organizations can use to build their brand and succeed in their work.” —Brian Reich, coauthor, Media Rules: Mastering Today’s Technology to Connect With and Keep Your Audience “In today’s highly competitive nonprofi t sector, creating an effective brand is essential. Brandraising tells you how to do it right! It should be required reading by today’s executive director, development director, communications director, or other nonprofi t professional.” —Cheryl A. Clarke, consultant and author of Storytelling for Grantseekers and Grant Proposal Makeover “During these uncertain economic times, when organizations’ staffs are required to do more with much less, while meeting an ever growing need, Brandraising is a must-read for nonprofi t professionals looking to help their organizations thrive or even just survive. Although nonprof- its generally spend time on strategic planning, Sarah Durham brings home the point that executing the strategies is an entirely different set of tasks. Brandraising illustrates how strategically planned and executed tactics in branding, communications, and fundraising are critical ingredients for solvent and successful nonprofi t organizations.” —Nicci Noble, president, Noble Services ffirs.indd ii 10/20/09 3:25:42 PM Brandraising ffirs.indd iii 10/20/09 3:25:42 PM FREE PPremium Content This book includes premium content that can be accessed from our Web site when you register at www.josseybass.com/go/sarahdurham using the password professional. ffirs.indd iv 10/20/09 3:25:43 PM raising Brand HOW NONPROFITS RAISE VISIBILITY AND MONEY THROUGH SMART COMMUNICATIONS Sarah Durham ffirs.indd v 10/20/09 3:25:43 PM Copyright © 2010 by Sarah Durham.

Throughout the morning, several offi cers of large corporate founda- tions talked about how their foundations ’ endowments had plummeted, leading to fewer grants and less money awarded to nonprofi ts. These grantmakers stressed that the competition for available grants was going to be tougher than ever. Organizations applying would have to distinguish themselves by communicating clearly and demonstrating their value distinctively. By the time my afternoon panel on branding began, the big question on everyone ’ s mind seemed to be, How can we demonstrate our value and uniqueness with our limited staff, budget, and experi- ence in the area of communications? 1 CH001.indd 1 10/20/09 3:24:07 PM Let ’ s face it: nonprofi ts arrived very late at the market- ing party.

  • ``Even More Or Less'': a Data-Rich Interactive Podcast Player
    “Even More or Less”: A data-rich interactive podcast player Dr. Chris Baume BBC Research and Development London, UK [email protected] ABSTRACT Podcast players make poor use of the capabilities of the screen-based devices people use to listen. We present a podcast playback interface that displays charts, links, topics and contributors on an interactive transcript-based interface. We describe how we used paper prototyping to design the interface and what we learnt by doing so. We share preliminary results from a public online evaluation of the interface, which indicate that it was well-received. The new features were considered interesting, informative and useful, with charts and transcripts emerging as the most popular features.

  • Creating Enhanced Podcast Virtual Lectures Using Enhanced Podcasts and Powerpoint to Deliver Online Modular Lectures
    Creating Enhanced Podcast Virtual Lectures Using Enhanced Podcasts and PowerPoint to Deliver Online Modular Lectures Michael A. Russell AC 2568 503.491.7348 [email protected] Abstract: This report proposes a methodology that can be used to create enhanced podcast lectures using PowerPoint and audio podcasting tools. Podcasting is a new and exciting multimedia Web delivery protocol accessible to anyone with an Internet connection. Enhanced podcasts can be created on both Windows and Macintosh platforms by anyone with a microphone and an audio input, and one does not require an iPod to view or listen to a podcast (listening and viewing is possible through the free cross-platform iTunes program.) The process starts by digitally recording audio lectures (using a wireless Lavaliere microphone and a boundary microphone connected to a MAudio MicroTrack recorder.) Relevant PowerPoint slides from the recorded lecture can be converted into static graphic files (.png or .jpg) then combined with the audio recordings to create an enhanced podcast. Posting the podcasts to the Web makes the content accessible to anyone. I plan to slice my normal 50-minute lectures into more manageable "learning modules" of no more than ten minutes length. Students would need to listen to a lecture module on "electrons" only instead of listening to the entire lecture on "atoms", for example. Instructions and examples of creating enhanced podcasts from my PowerPoint lectures will be provided. This methodology is applicable towards all faculty and staff interested in podcasting and creating podcast lectures. Note that this document may be viewed on the World Wide Web: http://gst-d2L.com/TLC Contents: I.

  • Case Studies of Transitional Korean Adolescents' Literacy Practices
    Different Literacies in Different Contexts of Use: Case Studies of Transitional Korean Adolescents’ Literacy Practices DISSERTATION Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University Jeongsoo Pyo, MA TESL Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Professor Alan Hirvela, advisor Professor Youngjoo Yi Professor Francis Troyan ii Copyright by Jeongsoo Pyo 2015 iii Abstract As new technology has changed adolescents’ literate life pathways outside school in remarkable ways, new uses of terminology, such as “mutiliteracies” (The New London Group, 1996), are necessary to capture the multi-dimensional nature of current encounters with what was long called “literacy,” a term that reflects a more limited presence in a print- mediated environment. However, there has been relatively little interest in the multliteracies experiences of Korean adolescents in the U.S., especially I the framing of them as transitional youth. This study asserts that the term “transitional youth” best captures the nature of their movement from the native language and culture they are moving from to a very new language and culture. This study examined the literacy practices of transitional Korean adolescents across three contexts—school, home, and community— from a sociocultural perspective. I conducted multiple case studies of three transitional Korean adolescents in a Midwestern city in the U.S. Over a six month period, I used multiple approaches

  • Creating Content for Ipod + Itunes
    Apple Education Creating Content for iPod + iTunes This guide provides information about the file formats you can use when creating content compatible with iTunes and iPod. This guide also covers using and editing metadata. To prepare for creating content, you should know a few basics about file formats and metadata. Knowing about file formats will guide you in choosing the correct format for your material based on your needs and the content. Knowing how to use metadata will help you provide your audience with information about your content. In addition, metadata makes browsing and searching easier. This guide also includes recommended tools for creating content. Understanding File Formats To create and distribute materials for playback on iPod and in iTunes, you need to get the materials (primarily audio or video) into compatible file formats. Understanding file formats and how they compare with each other will help you decide the best way to prepare your materials. Apple recommends using the following file formats for iPod and iTunes content: • AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) for audio content AAC is a state-of-the-art, open (not proprietary) format. It is the audio format of choice for Internet, wireless, and digital broadcast arenas. AAC provides audio encoding that compresses much more efficiently than older formats, yet delivers quality rivaling that of uncompressed CD audio. • H.264 for video content H.264 uses the latest innovations in video compression technology to provide incredible video quality from the smallest amount of video data. This means you see crisp, clear video in much smaller files, saving you bandwidth and storage costs over previous generations of video codecs.

Under this view, copyright holders are at the center of the copyright universe and exercise considerable control over their exclusive rights, with the expectation that others seek prior permission for all uses of copyrighted works outside of a fair use. Though pervasive, this conventional view of copyright is wrong. The Copyright Act is riddled with gray areas and gaps, many of which persist over time, because so few copyright cases are ever filed and the majority of those filed are not resolved through judgment.

  • The JALT CALL Journal Effective Implementation of Interactive
    » Selected Papers — Kochi University of Technology’S Web 2.0 Workshop Effective implementation of interactive podcasting for the Web 2.0 generation Michael Vallance & Yukiko Shibata Mirai Daigaku, Japan Podcasting has become a popular medium for teaching and learning in modern universities and schools worldwide . Most often used podcasts are developed by instructors to broadcast content information for their students to access at leisure . This article explains how podcasts have been developed by students to support their learning and share with fellow learners . In addition, the students’ podcasts are furthered by adding multimodal interactivity with text, quizzes, images and links to websites . This article details the development of the interactive podcasts and provides quantitative and qualitative evidence of their efficacy. Journal Introduction Research on technology implementation in education supports the claim that the development of autonomous learners needs to be facilitated by a social constructiv- ist approach to teaching and learning (Luke et al., 2005). A constructivist approach is about constructing knowledge, not receiving it; thinking and analyzing, not accumulating and memorizing; understanding and applying, not repeating back; and being active, not CALL passive (Marlowe & Page, 2005). With particular reference to Japan, Prefume (2007) argues that the implementation of a constructivist approach enhances the ability of foreign language educators to develop better communicators. Web 2.0 and its empha- sis on social communication and collective intelligence fits well with the constructivist approach to teaching and learning. Web 2.0 envisages the World Wide Web as a strategic platform in which data inserted by users leads to collective intelligence (O’Reilly, 2005).
