I was recently invited to Cal State Fullerton to speak to a graduate class taking the first social media course to be offered by CSUF. What I decided to present was my role as a Community Manager and how that may affect business in the near future. My goal was to use Prezi, a tool I have never used before, to give a visual representation of this role while using a tool within a tool within a tool. A fast paced real-life dive into the role of a Community Manager. Up until this day, the course had been mostly theory and having mostly come from corporate backgrounds many of the students had never heard of this position nor had they ever heard of about 95% of what was presented including but not limited to the tools, terminology and concepts.
One of the take-aways that I learned from this presentation is that for this particular type of audience I need to go at a slower pace and explain the detail more thoroughly (laymans terms). But for the purpose of sharing my experience I have created these Screenr vids in 2 parts to take you through my presentation with them. I do apologize if the pace is too fast but I had 5 minute time constraints to abide by in Screenr and well, C’est la vie.
