FIR on Higher Education #18 – Adopting a PR 2.0 Mindset as a Student or Professional
We all know that the way we go about doing public relations has drastically changed in recent years. We also know that changes will only continue as we move forward.
On episode 18 of FIR on Higher Education, author and professor Deirdre Breakenridge talks about:
• How to educate students to be prepared for this PR 2.0 world.
• How current PR practitioners can adopt this mindset and adopt a never top learning mindset as professionals.
• The eight practices for the PR professional.
• The learning forum that exists for students and professionals through #PRstudChat.
• Best practice tips on deploying hashtags.
In our reports section, Harry Hawk discusses presenting content in the classroom, while I share my online learning tip of the day by highlighting how the App “Logic Mind” can be useful in delivering presentations.
This episode is sponsored in part by Experiential Communications forthcoming Online Media Training Program for Academics.
