Green-minded consumers concerned about our environment are pressuring businesses to adopt green printing practices-and rewarding those who do so with their dollars. The development of new eco-friendly inks, paper, and print processes have made it easier for professional communicators to take their companies in a green direction and print eco-friendly documents. This paper discusses strategies for being an advocate for environmentally responsible printing practices and describes some of the eco-friendly and price-competitive print options now available.","PeriodicalId":348807,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126547123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most speakers prefer text slides in a bullet layout. Yet their audiences like real visualizations better. The question is: which of these two types of presentation support is better in terms of learning effects? In a large-scale experiment (N=237), we tried to determine the most effective way to visually support a presentation. We used a real-life 15-minute lecture on the topic of persuasion strategies. The independent variable was the content of the slide. Regarding the slide content, we employed three variations: ldr no visual support ldr slides with text ldr slides with real visualizations (diagrams, pictures etcetera) The dependent variables were a multiple-choice questionnaire to measure the comprehension of the listeners, and a Likert-like questionnaire to measure the attitudes of the listeners regarding presentation and slides. The outcome of this experiment suggests that, from a learning point of view, text slides support a presentation at least as well as visualizations, and that text on the slides does not need to be concise. But although listeners learn more from text slides, they prefer the visual kind significantly.","PeriodicalId":348807,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127232394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The project was carried out by a team of specialists, both in the content area and language teaching, and implemented on CEAS, an e-learning platform which emphasizes the face-to-face lecture. The project proved to be successful as the test results in English and the programming language showed a strong correlation. The student perception of the demanding curriculum was also positive.

Engineering requirements become greater and the level of complexity, cost, and humbug tend to increase. This paper offers communication solutions for today's engineering management challenges based on the use of certain models. Those models are simplified presentations of complex, elaborate, or vague concepts, designed to accelerate the learning process and extend retention of acquired knowledge and/or skills. Two model examples are used. Some traps and urban myths surrounding new technologies (and also older ones) are unveiled. An increased importance of recognizing needs for integration of technical and non-technical content are stressed. Skills and practices, necessary to succeed today are pointed out. Three stories, taken straight from the author's experience are told. They indicate the potential for sad happenings where end users not only vastly overpay for engineering work, but also receive clearly inferior product. It is followed by discussion on how application of those models leads to formulation of 'meta-consulting' where both technical and non-technical aspects are quickly assessed to form a basis for powerful, rapid-engagement, clear, priority-based solutions.","PeriodicalId":348807,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126251606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, a production experiment was carried out to determine which modalities people choose to answer different types of questions. In this experiment, participants had to create (multimodal) presentations of answers to general medical questions. The collected answer presentations were coded on the presence of visual media (i.e., photos, graphics, and animations) and their function. The results indicated that participants presented the information in a multimodal way. Moreover, significant differences were found in the presentation of different answer and question types. Next, an evaluation experiment was conducted to investigate how users evaluate different types of multimodal answer presentations. In this second experiment, participants had to assess the informativity and attractiveness of answer presentations for different types of medical questions. These answer presentations, originating from the production experiment, were manipulated in their answer length (brief vs. extended) and their type of picture (illustrative vs. informative). After the participants had assessed the answer presentations, they received a post- test in which they had to indicate how much they had recalled from the presented answer presentations. The results showed that answer presentations with an informative picture were evaluated as more informative and more attractive than answer presentations with an illustrative picture. The results for the post-test tentatively indicated that learning from answer presentations with an informative picture leads to a better learning performance than learning from purely textual answer presentations.","PeriodicalId":348807,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122590477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
