Online platforms provide engagement opportunities for many Americans who may not belong to a formal volunteering organization." www.ncoc.net "Strangely enough, digital technologies are forcing us to recognize the power of the collective and social."

Notes de l'éditeur
- Welcome everybody. My name is John Hamerlinck. I am associate director of Minnesota Campus Compact. It is great to have you here to explore ideas and opportunities related to leveraging technologies in campus-community partnerships.Do we have any visually impaired people with us today? I have a lot of slides that are just quick images . . . I am no expert, but what we’re talking about today is more about awareness and creativity than it is about expertiseIn fact, even if you are an expert, however,that doesn’t always mean you can see too far into the future.

- Live Webinars/Tutorials - you could create a new Twitter account with protected updates and ask invitation-only participants to follow you. Then you could hold a closed webinar at a pre-arranged time using Twitter for delivery instead of expensive webinar solutions. Twitter allows you to live chat, post links, photos, videos, audio files and text so there is no need for any plug-ins. You could even use a Twitter buffer like Twuffer (http://twuffer.com/) to space out the content of the webinar via tweets over a specific timeframe.Idea Sharing / Community Mind Mapping - So this amazing business idea comes to you in the shower and you are busting to make it happen. But you want to be sure that your stroke of brilliance is fabulous and not folly. This is where your Twitter followers come in. Whether you tweet publicly or DM only your most trusted followers to keep it under wraps, you’ll get unbiased and practically instantaneous feedback on your big plans. Would you use it? Could it work? How much would you pay for it? What features should it have? Tapping into the combined brain power of your Twitter community is a great way to flesh out a business plan.Competitor Tracking - You can use Twitter to monitor the activities of your enemi... er competitors without alerting them. Simply create an anonymous Twitter account and start following them. If they bad-mouth your company, or tweet about a product that may threaten your market share, you’ll know immediately.14) Live Presentation Aid - Presenting at a conference or other event with Internet access from your laptop?

TeleDoc provided handheld mobile phone devices to village health workers in India, permitting them to communicate with doctors who use a web application to help diagnose and prescribe for patients. The approximate cost of the entire TeleDoc process was 70 rupees (US$1.50) per consultation.Nacer (Peru)Nacer is a phone- and web- based information and communication system for maternal and child health that allows health professionals in remote locations to communicate and exchange critical health information between themselves, medical experts, and regional hospitals. All reported data is recorded in a central database, and is available to health officials in real-time for analysis and decision-making. Health workers in locations without Internet connectivity can access the system using any phone (satellite, fixed-line, mobile, or community pay phone).Cardionet (Mexico)Voxiva, along with ICS, has developed CardioNet, a solution in self-health care, health risk prevention, and adherence to prescribed treatments.

Based on these answers, the individual is evaluated according to the standards set by the World Health Organization (WHO). From this assessment the individual begins receiving educational messages encouraging him/her to exercise and eat healthy. Examples of health foods and exercise are given to increase the messages effectiveness.
- Stanford course on writing iPhone apps available for FREE at the iTunes storeStanBird, directed by Chase Mendenhall (Biology), an intergenerational, local volunteer team of citizen scientists and students will assist in the capture, color¬band marking, and release of the dense population of Western Scrub Jays on the Stanford campus and in surrounding areas. Students and community members will then track the population by submitting photos and observations of the marked birds via cell phone, email, Google maps, and a novel free Apple iPhone Application that automatically records information such as the date, time and GPS location of each photo or observation. The Geo-Historian project at Kent State University plans to put students to work creating multimedia content about historic sites. The technology behind this idea is a program that ties the information to a bar code. Then you could leave that bar code on, say, the memorial commemorating the 1970 Kent State shootings. Visitors could get access to the student-produced audio and video clips by scanning the bar code with their cell phone cameras.
