Social Media in Higher Education Summit
Tuesday, June 9, 2009
1:00 pm - 3:00 PM (Eastern)
Originating from the 2009 Penn State Web Conference
HashTag #smsummit
Come join me at this virtual summit as we explore the challenges and opportunities of social media in higher education. The format will be much different than a typical workshop. Following the principles of an unconference, we will leverage the wisdom of the crowd in an open environment where everyone's participation is encouraged.
In addition to those attending in person we will be using Adobe Connect to stream the event live and allow our virtual attendees to participate in the proceedings. The URL for the summit is http://breeze.psu.edu/psuwebsms.
Update, June 8: You will need to create a "Friends of Penn State Account" to participate. A link and instructions are available at http://breeze.psu.edu/psuwebsms.
We will will be utilizing social media to create a backchannel to let people from across the globe participate virtually. For those of you who want to participate on Twitter, delicious, Flickr, etc., the hashtag for the event is #smsummit
I have added an instance for the Social Media Summit at the Harvard’s Live Question Tool:

Please submit your questions and vote and reply to existing questions. I plan on using the information gathered to drive our live discussion on June 9.

Comment by Monty Dickerson on June 10, 2009 at 10:57am - The contribution by @bluefuego was outstanding, as was the discussion following, but due to technical difficulties the audio was very intermittent for remote participants. I'll look forward to any PowerPoint et. al. documents from the meeting! If anyone would share their notes taken from the conversations, that would be wonderful!

I'm using a version of PHPLive I've been customizing for the past few years. Although I've used the meebome widget before too. The nice thing about it is that if no one is online to answer the chat it prompts them to leave a message.
Our library staff initiated adding live chat and have had a good success with it. Now the admissions folks are interested in doing something similar. The real challenge is, of course, people managing the responses. The technology is fairly straigh...
