Jeremy Day commented on Joe Roberson's blog post Four things I learnt about user involvement at Innovation LabsJeremy Day replied to Tim Davies's discussion What about symposium on Digital Youth Work for the "International Conference on Youth Work and Youth Studies" in August 2012 in the group Researching Youth Engagement in a Digital Age"Sounds like a very interesting idea"
Jeremy Day commented on Jeremy Day's blog post Engaging with young people on Deviantart?"Thx DK, interesting chat about how Deviantart differs from other social networks there. I'm already getting the feel that it's much more akin to something like Etsy or Threadless than a more traditional all-stream social network.
Dave,…"

Dave Danis commented on Jeremy Day's blog post Engaging with young people on Deviantart?"That sounds pretty interesting, keep us updated. Whats the age range of these artists?

Jeremy Day posted a blog postEngaging with young people on Deviantart?
OK, this is a new one for me -- young women at an art group I'm assisting with (they brought me in for the webcomics/manga angle) want to engage on Deviantart! I've gone through the usual set-up and establish process -- an interesting experience because you have to "become a deviant" to join, ha ha -- friended, commented, added some content, the usual.Language issues aside, I was wondering if anyone else has any hints/tips/ideas/things to watch out for about engaging on online art communities?…See More

- Hey Jeremy
Welcome to the network :)
Really looking forward to hearing more about how things are going in Oxford.
One of the sparks for setting up this community came a while back when some youth website editors approached the NYA interested in some sort of event to get people together. I'm sure there is a lot that could be done in terms of content sharing / idea sharing between youth websites.... is there anything going on already that you know of?
- At 15:54 on June 16, 2008,
- I've just created a Youth Web Sites category on the forum for any youth website discussions - and I've put a question in there about content sharing.
Way way back I ran a very basic youth website down in Havant Borough - and was always on the look out for content I could syndicate and use there...

"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.
I also have a mail chimp account, but I have never used it.
Awebber was not too difficult to set…"

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
