. | 6/1/2008 21:57:27 | Kabren Levinson | Academic Technology | During my senior year in high school, I began working with my high school, the Cambridge School of Weston, on using technology in the classroom for my final senior capstone project. I've left my school with an educational technology program called "tech@csw." The program has 3 main components, a Technology Strategy Team, a committee of students on faculty who talk about tech in the school, an EduTech Squad, a group of students who work 1-1 with teachers on academic technology, and student-led technology courses. I'll talk about why this is necessary, my technology program, tech@csw, what other schools are doing in edutech, and my thoughts about my project. I'm 18 and I've been podcasting for over 2 years. I first became interested in Academic Technology at PodCamp Boston 2, where I led a session about Teen Podcasting. | 109960896-1641486 | y |

. | 5/31/2008 10:17:37 | Mark Bernstein | | The intellectual, artistic, social, and sexual concerns of weblogs are not well understood. It is wrong to dismiss weblogs with small audiences as failed efforts of the long tail, and it is equally mistaken to embrace them as merely Romantic expressions of their creator's inherent wonderfulness. A new synthesis of literary, social, economic, and technical understanding can help resolve the fruitless war of blogger and journalist, restore creative hypertext nonfiction to its rightful place, and save the blogosphere from the awful fate of usenet, slashdot, and Facebook. | 1838320-3150760 | y |

. | 6/16/2008 16:40:13 | Matt Peters | NeoVictorian, Nobitic, and Narrative: the intellectual, artistic, and social concerns of wikis, weblogs, and social media | Matt Peters, co-founder of local social media marketing company Pandemic Labs, will speak about the new marketing philosophy that Pandemic Labs and other new marketing companies have been founded upon. The main philosophy being that in an increasingly on-demand world, the consumer has the power. To be an effective marketer to the Web 2.0 crowd you HAVE to provide value to them, not interrupt them and blast them with your brand. Distinctions between these new marketers and more traditional "red saber" marketers will be explained.
Discussion points can be nearly anything along these lines. Matt will focus on these topics unless something else is desired by the audience:
-Easy steps that can be taken by small podcasters or huge corporations to improve their social media marketing efforts.
-Relevant campaigns Matt has been a part of and how the consumers were engaged, not interrupted.
-The philosophical rift between "red saber marketers" and new marketers.
-How much engagement is enough?
-How much advertising is too much?
-How do you engage without offending?
-How do you weave all of the available sites and services into a cohesive campaign.
-Open discussion.
We think this session will be particularly enlightening to most attendees due to the anti-marketing sentiment we saw at the most recent PodcampBoston.
Cheers. | 109960896-1914233 | y |
