Postmortem Notes: The Foursquare/Plancast Experiment
Last month, we announced we were conducting an experiment using Plancast and Foursquare to add a social layer to the 2010 Noel Levitz’ National Conference on Student Recruitment, Marketing and Retention and the 2010 eduWEB conference. A few weeks later, we’ve been able to digest the results and get feedback to report on.
Meet One of Higher Ed’s Social Media Mavens, Mark Greenfield
This year’s National Conference on Student Recruitment and Retention sponsored by Noel Levitz is gonna be a blast. Our team wanted to take some time out to highlight one of the 15 speakers focusing on social media topics (can you believe there’s 15 experts teaching about social media?! We’ve come a long way!)
Mark Greenfield is one of Higher Education’s most prolific students of social media. He can’t be described as a “bystander” or an “observer,” because he has had several hands in the pot since the inception of social media almost a decade ago.
It’s Conference Season!
The leaves are changing. Hotels are booked. Extra business cards are printed. Yup, you guessed it. It’s conference season! All over the US right now are this year’s Higher Ed leaders converging to discuss the latest trends and technologies in our markets. Though the ROI isn’t the most quantifiable for college administrators attending these events, I think we could all agree on the amount of learning that’s done when we get there.
