"Hey DK.
Only photos and videos are pre-moderated on this network - so it would be an issue with the RSS feeds. Your post definitely went up in July.
Ning 'upgraded' their RSS feeds in the last few days - and I suspect broke the IDs which…"
DK replied to DK's discussion FREE Social Media Training"Don't know why but the post above just appeared in my RSS feed which I have for the forum here. That means either the RSS wasn't working properly or the post which was written above on the 14th July didn't go live until today.

"Hi Tony,
Thanks for that; your youthworktoolbox website looks useful, particularly the podcasts.
We're looking at going with Mailchimp as it's very user-friendly and very much integrated with social media which is a major plus.
I might…"
Tony Brown replied to Mildred Talabi's discussion Email marketing - how do you do yours?"Hi Mildred.
I currently use Awebber for my email campaigns.
It's a paid service, but after my research, it seemed to be the best option for me.

Using Creative Assessment Tools for Practitioners at Attlee Youth & Community Centre, London E1
April 11, 2013 from 9:30am to 4:30pm
BackgroundOne of the challenges of assessment processes with young people is how to secure their involvement and active participation. Only too often assessment can become something that is ‘done’ to young people (or a form that needs to be filled in), rather than a dynamic process that puts them at the centre, something theyare involved with and have some ownership over. The assessment tools called ‘CAF Cards’ and ‘Road Sign Cards’ have been developed with young people to work with the…See More
