Persuasion & Propaganda

Language in Society

What is Propaganda?

Definition: Information, ideas, or rumors deliberately

spread to help or harm a person or group.

In sort words Propaganda is the spreading of beliefs. If

people don’t believe the information that is being spread,

then it won’t influence them.

WHAT IS A WIKI The simplest online database that could possibly work.

It is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web

page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a

simple text sentence structure for creating new pages and links between

internal pages on the fly.

Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows

the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself.

How to use a Wiki:

How can David Weekley Homes use a wiki?

Great to plan staff meetings Keep in contact with staff members Store documents and edit them freely

Announce upcoming events Post work schedules

Advantages of using a WIKI:

•Good for writing down quick ideas or longer ones, giving you more time for formal writing and editing.

•Instantly collaborative without emailing documents, keeping the group in sync.

•Accessible from anywhere with a web connection (if you don't mind writing in web-browser text forms).

•Your archive, because every page revision is kept.

•Exciting, immediate, and empowering--everyone has a say.

NO EMAILS!

THANK -YOU

I hope you enjoyed my presentation on TWITTER and WIKIS for your company. I use both of these emerging

technologies everyday and find them extremely helpful in everyday life.
