Ware","doi":"10.1145/2666216.2666238","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/2666216.2666238","url":null,"abstract":"In this poster presentation, the author presents results of a study about student journalist perceptions of the wearable technology Google Glass (Glass). This poster presents the first set of results of an ongoing research project designed to determine what factors play the largest roles in student decision making processes about whether or not to use a new technology. Survey results of students in a semester-long capstone journalism course are presented. Results indicate that students' perceptions of social norms related to the new technology shaped early use of the wearable device. After becoming more familiar with Glass and using the device in training sessions, student social norm apprehensions did not decrease. This printed poster will include video footage related to the project through augmented reality technology accessible via smartphones.","PeriodicalId":393730,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 32nd ACM International Conference on The Design of Communication CD-ROM","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130875027","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}

{"title":"Identifying how U.S. nonprofit organizations operate within the Information Process Maturity Model","authors":"Sarah K. Gunning","doi":"10.1145/2666216.2666220","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/2666216.2666220","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, the researcher investigates grant writers' perspectives on knowledge management practices within nonprofit organizations. The researcher uses survey data (n = 448) to assess where organizations fall within JoAnn Hackos's Information Process Maturity Model (IPMM) [1]. The paper asks, how do proposal writers perceive current documentation efforts within their organizations? Is there a relationship between an organization's annual operating budget and employees' satisfaction with documentation efforts? Results indicate that most nonprofit organizations fall within the Ad hoc or Rudimentary stage of the IPMM. However, this classification may be due to grant writers' preferences to create individual rather than organizational documentation systems. Organizational documentation practices have both short- and long-term economic implications for the nonprofit industry, particularly fundraising, where employee turnover is a problem.","PeriodicalId":393730,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 32nd ACM International Conference on The Design of Communication CD-ROM","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124651709","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}
