Class Intercom, the leading provider of school social media management software, has announced the official date for its fifth annual Content Generation Workshop. The student-focused event will be held Wednesday, October 16th from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. central at a combination of in-person locations across multiple regions in addition to being accessible to virtual attendees at schools nationwide. This year’s workshop will be centered around the power of social media, exploring a diverse range of topics, including prudent skills like visual branding, video production, and copywriting, as well as bigger picture themes like storytelling, student voice, digital citizenship, and community.
The workshop will broadcast live to in-person satellite locations and virtual attendees across the country from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s main campus (just a few blocks from Class Intercom’s headquarters in Lincoln, Nebraska). Attendees will hear from a diverse group of expert content creators, including the likes of K12 communications expert Akwi Nji; hospitality marketing guru Sydney Long; and wildlife social media coordinator Laura Kintz.
The workshop will also offer a number of practical opportunities for students to build and test their skills in areas like copywriting, video editing, photography, and creative collaboration. Through a series of quick-hit challenges, students are prompted to create and post real social media content reflecting their school’s innovative approach to digital media and student engagement.
“We’re thrilled to be back for another year of The Content Generation Workshop,” said Class Intercom President Dr. Jill Johnson. “The event gives students a unique opportunity to think about and apply their skills and knowledge from so many different angles and lenses. It’s a truly unique, real-world learning experience centered on digital citizenship and the power of social media.”
Educators can register groups of up to 10 students to attend virtually here. Be advised that space for in-person workshop opportunities is severely limited, but free virtual registrations will remain open until the day of the event.
