16 #highered must-attend sessions at #pseweb 2014 in Toronto (July 29-30, 2014)

Can you believe it? I can’t make it to the #PSEWeb conference this year even though it’s only 1-hour away (by plane) this year. My parents are in town next week — and since they come from Europe, they have priority. I spent several hours in a plane last year just to attend this conference […]

Is Your Attention Under Attack?

Do you have time to check everything on your to-do list at work? I doubt it. Time is the only thing that has remained constant over the past few years. A day was 24 hours long before Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter. And, still is. While your work day might have expanded outside of the office […]

My love story with the High Ed Web conference I attended my first High Ed Web conference 6 years ago in Rochester, NY. It was called HighEdWebDev at that time. It was the first time I presented and blogged this conference. I asked volunteers to help me live blog the conference (want to know what […]

I attended the eduWeb Conference last week in Boston, MA — and I got to say I really had a blast: 2 great keynotes, too many really good sessions, fantastic conversations, amazing social events and really lively backchannel on Twitter.

Why and how to present at a #highered conference in 2013

December 17th, 2012 Karine Joly 2 Comments

Since I started to teach social media marketing in 2011, I’ve realized that teaching is really the best way to learn (and keep learning) what’s really important about a topic.
