Paul Walk, Deputy Director, UKOLN, and Thom Bunting, Web Manager (eFramework and JISC IE Technical Foundations), UKOLN, will both be contributing to sessions on 27 July 2011 at the Institutional Web Management Workshop 2011 (IWMW 2011). Thom in a computer-lab-based session entitled Doing Drupal: quick start deployments via distributions will focus on a distribution providing automated content and data aggregation, tagging, mapping, and trend visualisation. Paul, conscious of the the lack of career options for successful Web developers in many HE institutions will explore the possible development of a new role in the sector – The Strategic Developer – a developer who has both technical and domain experience, and who can contribute to strategic planning and decision making.

Marieke Guy and Brian Kelly will be facilitating a parallel session at this year’s Institutional Web Management Workshop entitled The Economical Way to Amplify Your Event.
Web teams are increasingly involved in supporting events by delivering resources, streaming content and promoting outputs. This session will consider what you need to do to amplify an event successfully, the free and not-so-free tools that are out there for you to use, and what equipment it would be useful to have. It will also take a look at event amplification at IWMW2011 and consider what has worked and what hasn’t over the past few years.
