<div><b>Overview</b></div>
<div>Effective use of new interactive media -- such as participatory
technology, video, blogs, podcasts, news feeds and social networking
sites -- has become key to communicating with higher education's most
important constituents. However, measuring the effects of these new
interactive media efforts on key audiences remains a challenge.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>This webinar will introduce you to a number of tools that can
help you assess your efforts. It will provide the context for using
these tools effectively, including establishing realistic
communication goals for interactive media and using measurement data
to track your progress.</div>
