Contextual Narrative: Rethinking Communication In Our Professions

•

10 gostaram•2,367 visualizações

The rich contextual narrative contained in a story makes it a far more effective way of learning than by reading any procedure, best practice, or most other knowledge transfer media. What makes stories so compelling? While we have been taught that people process information, they actually learn by processing patterns. The patterns held in stories hold far more contextual meaning than we intentionally convey, and stay longer with those being told the stories. Will we ever wean customers from calling the help desk? Should we start our manuals with "once upon a time ...?" Is the answer to usability to create a giant template for all Web applications? Which patterns work, and why don't my patterns ever seem to be ones that stick? This presentation was delivered by to the Indiana Chapter of the Society for Technical Communication and the Indiana Chapter of the Usability Professionals Association, Monday, March 12, 2007 by user experience and content management consultant Rahel Anne Bailie. Take a rollicking trip through information versus pattern processing, ditting as a requirements-gathering techniques, urban myths as knowledge base model, and other issues related to contextual narrative. Bailie's academic background in creative writing includes a specialization in myth, folklore, and fairytales, which led to a decade-long career in technical communication.

Today, business is digital. That makes content critical. Content now represents nearly a third of marketing budgets alone (Content Marketing Institute), and that proportion will only increase. Content also is the substance of most digital media products and digital channel communications. So, you might have enjoyed some success with implementing a content strategy for a single product, channel, or marketing campaign. Now, imagine repeating that success. How do you make your content strategy scale across products, brands, channels, markets and more? It's a question that often brings up many, many, MANY more questions for midsize and enterprise organizations. This session will help you answer them with a practical vision and 3 useful principles to scale your content strategy. This presentation was given at Content Strategy Applied USA on November 17-18, 2014

You CAN prove the savings possible from moving your unstructured content to intelligent content. The benefits are measurable. Intelligent content combined with a content management system can facilitate savings and improvements in content development, translation, regulations, governance, multi-channel publishing, and quality. In this session, Mark discusses how the various processes benefit from intelligent content and discusses metrics that prove the benefit. If it hurts, then it's time to calculate the pain — and the relief. This session draws from concepts in Mark's book, DITA Metrics 101, The Business Case for XML and Intelligent Content. Mark also discusses which metrics you should gather so you can align your plan with corporate strategy and become the "Executive Whisperer." This session is part of The Content Wrangler Virtual Summit on Advanced Technical Communication Practices, December 4-5, 2014. Hosted by BrightTALK.

Content strategy is about so much more than streamlining your content development process—it's about supporting your organization's business goals. To be truly effective, your content strategy should be global. That means breaking down the barriers that keep the different types of content producers in your organization apart. Your organization creates various kinds of content—technical, marketing, training, and more. Your content strategy may begin with tech comm, but it should also account for these other types of content to present a unified message and better serve your brand. This presentation shows how, with a global strategy, all of your content can work together to help your organization succeed. Gretyl Kinsey is a technical consultant with Scriptorium Publishing who specializes in content strategy and tech comm tools and technologies. Since joining Scriptorium in 2011, she has been involved with the development and implementation of content strategies for organizations in a variety of industries. She has experience with every step of the implementation process, from customizing transforms to converting legacy content to helping with follow-on support. She also frequently contributes her graphic design skills to the marketing side of Scriptorium. With a background in journalism and visual communication, she is interested in the convergence between technical and marketing communication, and in content strategies that encourage it.

Once a prospect buys a product or service, the content they interact with is no longer familiar. The instructions provided don't look, feel, or sound anything like the marketing and sales materials that introduced them to your brand. Neither does the service contract, the warranty, the customer support website, the product documentation, nor the training materials. The extensive variability in customer experience — and each customer touchpoint — creates a different and inconsistent version of the brand, some that bear little or no resemblance to the brand that executives believe they are building. There are often as many brands as there are touch points. For no good reason, the content experience changes drastically -- and not in a good way. That's why organizations that recognize the importance of a unified customer experience have started rethinking what it means to be customer-centric. Some forward-thinking organizations are reorganizing customer-facing content creators into teams under one roof. They're breaking down the barriers — the silos — that prevent them from collaborating; from creating a unified customer content experience. In this presentation, Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, discusses the challenges of content inconsistency and incongruity, and why he thinks the future of technical communication is marketing.

The Future of Technical Communication is Marketing

Time is in short supply. Deadlines are tight. Resources are even tighter. If you're like most content professionals, you have dozens of great ideas but not enough time, money or experience to bring them to life. But it doesn't have to be this way. In this content marketing meets intelligent content engineering case study, we will explain how the newly published book, The Language of Content Strategy (XML Press) was created with the help of the crowd, structured XML content, a wiki and a formal content strategy. Attend this session to learn how the two seasoned content strategists enlisted the help of 50 knowledgeable experts to create a printed book, an e-book, a companion website and educational flash cards in record time, all from a single source of content. You'll discover why it's imperative that content professionals —regardless of their area of specialty — understand and leverage the power of advanced information development practices. You'll leave knowing why a repeatable content production system, optimized for productivity and designed to efficiently produce multiple content products simultaneously, is no longer an option, but rather a necessity.

Getting the right information to the right people, at the right time, in the right format, and in the right language is the goal of every professional technical communicator. But, the pace of change is fast, and each and every step forward is often accompanied by two steps back. That’s because the speed of technological change is outstripping our ability to keep up. It seems we’re always playing catch up. But, it doesn’t have to be that way. In this slide deck, Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, showcases five powerful information technology innovations that, when harnessed by professional technical communicators, can help us future-proof our content and ensure we’re meeting – even exceeding – our goals.

Words matter. Selecting the wrong ones can impede communication. But, while word choice is critical, equally important are spelling, style, punctuation and grammar. This slide deck was used by Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, and Val Swisher, CEO of Content Rules, Friday, February 9 to guide our interview of special guest Mignon Fogarty (aka Grammar Girl). The three content pros discussed the fast-changing world of language and how we use and abuse it. And, they answered questions from the audience.

“Creating Culturally-Correct Web Content For Global Audiences” was a discussion between Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, and Maxwell Hoffmann, Director of Multilingual Document Globalization at Globalization Partners International. The two discussed best practices for creating web content. Maxwell provided interesting examples of color, imagery and expression mistakes others have made in the past. Scott and Maxwell also discussed how to determine if content (text and graphics) are both culturally-correct and effective in communicating to an off-shore, global audience. They also talked about how to avoid the most common cultural mistakes that unintentionally alienate the customers you are trying to serve. Listen to the archived recording: http://bit.ly/ls5nq3

Content strategists come from a variety of backgrounds and talents, and have developed the skill set that it takes to succeed in the field we now call content strategy. It’s not a matter of knowing which tools to use – after all, the music is not in the violin, but the musician. If you want to work as a content strategist, which of your existing skills can you leverage, and what skills do you need to gain? What area of content strategy do you want to work in, and how do you move into that area? This slide deck was part of a webinar series sponsored by MindTouch. MindTouch creates software that can help you build social communities around your product and user assistance documentation.

Six Myths about Ontologies: The Basics of Formal Ontology

johnbeverley2021

The microservices honeymoon is over. When starting a new project or revamping a legacy monolith, teams started looking for alternatives to microservices. The Modular Monolith, or 'Modulith', is an architecture that reaps the benefits of (vertical) functional decoupling without the high costs associated with separate deployments. This talk will delve into the advantages and challenges of this progressive architecture, beginning with exploring the concept of a 'module', its internal structure, public API, and inter-module communication patterns. Supported by spring-modulith, the talk provides practical guidance on addressing the main challenges of a Modultith Architecture: finding and guarding module boundaries, data decoupling, and integration module-testing. You should not miss this talk if you are a software architect or tech lead seeking practical, scalable solutions. About the author With two decades of experience, Victor is a Java Champion working as a trainer for top companies in Europe. Five thousands developers in 120 companies attended his workshops, so he gets to debate every week the challenges that various projects struggle with. In return, Victor summarizes key points from these workshops in conference talks and online meetups for the European Software Crafters, the world’s largest developer community around architecture, refactoring, and testing.

Tracing the root cause of a performance issue requires a lot of patience, experience, and focus. It’s so hard that we sometimes attempt to guess by trying out tentative fixes, but that usually results in frustration, messy code, and a considerable waste of time and money. This talk explains how to correctly zoom in on a performance bottleneck using three levels of profiling: distributed tracing, metrics, and method profiling. After we learn to read the JVM profiler output as a flame graph, we explore a series of bottlenecks typical for backend systems, like connection/thread pool starvation, invisible aspects, blocking code, hot CPU methods, lock contention, and Virtual Thread pinning, and we learn to trace them even if they occur in library code you are not familiar with. Attend this talk and prepare for the performance issues that will eventually hit any successful system.
