Guidelines
About the IWMW Event
Background
The IWMW (Institutional Web Management Workshop) was launched in July 1997, to ensure
institutional web managers were able to keep up-to-date with developments in web
technologies and learn from peers at other UK higher educational institutions on emerging
best practices for managing large scale web services.
The event continues to support the institutional web management community although, 22
years later, the focus has widened to embrace the range of digital channels which are used
to support institutional activities. However the key characteristics of the event continue:
 Active participation: The event is described as a 'workshop'. There are plenary

talks (which provide a shared experience for delegates) but also parallel sessions
('workshops' and 'masterclasses') which provide opportunities for delegates to
engage actively in discussions on topics of interest.
 The event theme and programme: The theme and programme are developed by
the IWMW 2018 co-chairs and the event Advisory Group, with the event theme
providing a focus for the event: the theme for IWMW 2018 is “streamlining digital”.
 In the community …: IWMW events are hosted at higher educational institutions
across the country. Although a number of institutions (the universities of Bath and
York) have hosted the event on more than once occasion, the event organisers
ensure that the event travels around the UK.
 For the community: The event Advisory Group, which consists of members of the
web community, provides input into the event planning so that IWMW events address
the key challenges the community are facing.
 Event sponsorship: In order that the event continues to support a thriving
community of practice we need to ensure the event is sustainable. Since the
cessation of Jisc funding in 2013 the event sponsors have been invaluable in
providing financial support and contributions to the event programme.

Welcome
We’re so pleased that you will be joining us at the University of York for the 22nd IWMW
event. All conference sessions will take place on the main campus at the University of York
and individual session times and venues will be communicated individually.
This document provides practical information to help you prepare for your visit to York, as
well as guidelines as to what we expect from our speakers and facilitators, in order that both
the presenters and the audience members get the very best from each session possible.
Event Overview
IWMW, the annual Institutional Web

Management Workshop, is the ‘must attend’ Can’t fault it to be honest. Really
conference for web and digital professionals affordable which counts for a lot and
across the UK Higher Education sector who have
by far the best ‘ROI’ of any conference
an interest in a wide range of topics, including
I have been to in the last few years.
digital transformation, website/digital
governance, university strategy, digital strategy, UX, design, development, user-journeys
and tasks, team management, leadership, content, measurement and analytics, change
management, student recruitment and retention, and communications.
History of IWMW Events
The IWMW event was launched at King’s College London in July 1997. Following the
success of that 2-day event the IWMW series continued as a 3-day event (save for 2011
which was a 2-day event). From 1997 to 2013 the event was organised by UKOLN, a Jisc-
funded organisation based at the University of Bath.
Following the cessation of Jisc funding in 2013 and the subsequent closure of UKOLN, the
event continued as an independent event. The IWMW 2016 event, held at Liverpool John
Moores University, marked the event’s 20th anniversary with the IWMW blog hosting
recollections of previous events (see http://iwmw.org/guest-posts/#guest-posts). IWMW 2017
was held at the University of Kent, Canterbury, marked the 21st anniversary of the event and
this year’s event, IWMW 2018, will take place at the University of York.

Key Themes for IWMW 2018
The web has changed beyond recognition over the

last decade, and so has the role of the institutional Excellent. Every session had some
web team and the professionals within it. With relevance to my situation, and each
innovative technologies and channels of
institution was on a different point of
communication emerging at a rapid rate, we’ve
the improvement journey.
grown from mainly technical teams of web editors
and programmers/developers into multidisciplinary digital professionals in a unique position
to drive excellent user experiences and nurture our institutions’ digital footprints. Our work is
no longer purely operational, but strategic, agile and responsive.
However, there’s still a long way to go. Our time and resources are often stretched, and
senior management and stakeholders are still unsure how the web, and associated digital
channels, can help the institution reach its aims and objectives.
With the rise of omni-channel marketing and communications, Generation Z, Millennials, and
Alphas, organisational restructures, and budget cuts, how do we become experts in
measurement and reporting, governance and compliance, and the voice of our users? And
how do we get our expertise recognised?
Most of all, how can digital teams stay one step ahead and keep on doing more, in the most
effective, user-oriented, and collaborative way?
The “IWMW 2018: Streamlining Digital” event will explore these topics, and more!
Audience Profile
IWMW attracts core members of web and digital teams such as designers, content creators,
UX designers, developers, information architects and managers. In recent years the
audience profile has broadened to include policy makers and senior managers responsible
for facilitating organisational change around digital transformation and innovation.
Supporting and Encouraging Speakers
The majority of the speakers and facilitators at IWMW events throughout the event’s 22
years have been members of the UK higher education’s web management community. In
order to encourage new members of the community to share their experiences and support
their professional development we are pro-active in seeking new speakers. We hope this
handbook will ensure that new speakers at this year’s event feel at ease.

Before the Event: Planning Your

Talk/Workshop/Masterclass
Sessions
Each day is split up into sessions which are chaired by a member of the Advisory Group.
Their job is to ensure slides are ready for each session, keep everyone to time (please keep
to time and leave time for questions at the end of the main body of your
presentation/workshop/masterclass) and facilitate questions. The session chair will be in
contact with each speaker in their allotted session to introduce themselves and the speakers
to each other. The session chair is a key point of contact in the run up to the event.
The event programme is made up of a number of different types of sessions and activities.
For further information take a look at the IWMW blog post: The Different Types of IWMW
Event Sessions: How To Tell Your Plenary From Your Panel Session (see
http://iwmw.org/blog/2018/02/13/different-types-iwmw-event-sessions/).
IT Requirements
You will have been asked to provide details of any IT or other equipment. We will be in touch
with you prior to the event to ensure that we have the correct set-up for each session, in
case anything has changed since you submitted your proposal.
Your Slides
We request that slides are submitted in advance of the event (speakers will be emailed
further information) and they will normally be added to the Slideshare slide repository
service.
Handouts aren’t needed for plenary sessions but you may wish to bring along accompanying
handouts if you are running a workshop or masterclass.
We normally try to ensure that slides used in plenary talks are hosted on the Slideshare slide
repository service in order to (a) maximise the audience for the slides; (b) make it easier for
delegates to make notes of the talk; (c) enhance the accessibility of the talk (d) raise the
profile of the speaker and (e) raise the profile of the event.
5
Key Takeaways
We want each delegate to get as much out of every session that they attend as possible.
Being clear about your session goals, and sharing these with the audience, will give a clear
focus to your slot and help focus the minds of those in attendance. These could be as
specific (e.g. delegates will hear about the latest Google algorithm) or as broad as you see fit
(e.g. delegates will leave thinking differently about agile design), as, after all, everyone is
different, learns differently, and will see value in different parts of your session.
Interaction
Workshops and masterclasses should be interactive rather than a longer plenary session.
Activities, handouts, group-work, mini projects, feeding back, sharing experiences and
knowledge, all make for a great, and interactive session where lots can be learned both from
the facilitator and the others in the group.
If you would like to talk through your workshop or masterclass in more detail don’t hesitate to
get in touch with Brian Kelly or Claire Gibbons.
Promote Your Talk – and the IWMW Event
The IWMW event has seen a significant influx of new attendees over recent years, as long-
standing participants retire or move on to other areas of work and people who are new to the
web management sector (and possibly new to working in higher education) join institutional
web and digital management teams.
In order to ensure that knowledge of IWMW events is shared across the community we invite
speakers to mention the event and their participation at this year’s event. One simple way of
doing this would be to include something along the following lines in your email signature:
I am speaking at IWMW 2018 - the premier event for HE Web and Digital
Professionals. See iwmw.org/iwmw2018/
Contacting Your Attendees (Workshop and Masterclass Facilitators)
You will be provided with a list of attendees who have signed up to attend your workshop or
masterclass and you are welcome to contact them in advance in order to shape the finer
details of your session content or ask them for some specific information prior to your
workshop/masterclass. Under data protection and privacy guidelines these contact details
are not to be used for any other purposes.

At the Event
Be a Delegate
All speakers and facilitators are welcome to take full part in the event and attend all of the
other sessions, just as the other delegates will be. Make the most of the breaks and take the
opportunity to chat to others to enhance your own learning and networks.
Relax and Enjoy!
The IWMW attendees are a very friendly bunch who are there to learn from each other and
share their own experiences. The audience is very much ‘on your side’ and will be facing the
same professional opportunities and challenges as you have done, or still are! Enjoy your
time in the spotlight and make the most of being amongst peers and friends who are looking
forward to hearing from you about your work.
Note that we are exploring the possibility of providing a “buddy program” which aims to
support event participation, foster inclusion and build connections with members of the
community, especially for those attending an IWMW event for the first time.
Get People Together
You may find that you get loads of questions after your talk/workshop/masterclass. Feel free
to set up an impromptu get-together for anyone who may like to pick your brains a bit more,
to share the information with people all at the same time. There are plenty of breaks and
‘downtime’ in which this can happen. You can announce your impromptu session and let
Brian or Claire know and we can announce it at the start of one of the sessions.
In Case of an Emergency
Details about what to do should an emergency occur will be shared with all delegates,
speakers and facilitators at the events itself.
Notes For Plenary Speakers
Length of talks
The plenary talk slots will for 30 or 45 minutes. However you will need to allow time for
change-over times at the start and end of your talk and ensure there is time for
questions. The chair of your session will provide further information on timings – and
will ensure that you do not overrun!
7
Advice for those speaking at an IWMW event for the first time.
It is always good to have new speakers at IWMW events. If you are new at speaking in
public the IWMW 2018 event should provide an ideal opportunity for you – the
audience is always friendly. In brief we suggest that you (a) make contact with the
chair of your session who can provide more detailed advice and suggestions for your
talk and the session; (b) make it clear to the audience what your talk will cover and
what you hope they will learn from your talk and (c) try to leave time for questions.
Issues related to live-streaming and recording of talks

In recent years we have live-streamed plenary talks for those who aren't able to attend.
We hope to do this again this year if we receive sponsorship to cover the streaming
costs. However we appreciate that speakers may not wish to be live-streamed or for a
recording of their talk to be made available, due to nervousness or an unwillingness to
share sensitive information. If this is the case we are happy for plenary talks not to be
live-streamed or for recordings of talks not to be made public.
Updating slides at the last minute

We normally upload slides to Slideshare in advance in order that a remote audience
(watching a live video stream or reading event tweets) can access slides while a talk is
taking place. In addition access to speakers' slides can be useful for delegates when
writing a trip report. In order to minimise delays in uploading slides and to provide time
for slides to be added to the event web site we ask speakers to provide their slides in
advance. If you do wish to make last-minute changes (which can ensure the content is
fresh and reflects other talks given at the event) this can be done – we will upload the
latest version after the talk has been given.
Process for uploading slides to the speaker's PC

Since the event organisers will not be aware if you update your slides you should not
assume that the latest version is available on the speaker's PC. You should therefore
ensure that you have a copy of your slides on a memory stick which can be copied to
the speaker's PC. You should also ensure that your slides are copied to the PC in
advance of your session (e.g. at the start of a break before the session starts).
Use of Twitter during talks

The Twitter hashtag for the event is #IWMW18. In addition each of plenary talk has its
own hashtag (#P1 – #P11) so that tweets for a specific talk to be easily identified. After
the event has finished archives of the tweets will be published e.g. see the archives of
the IWMW 2017 event hosted on Wakelet (http://bit.ly/iwmw17-twitter-summary).

Notes For Workshop and Masterclass Facilitators
Difference between a workshop and a masterclass

A workshop lasts for 90 minutes and a masterclass last for about 2.5 hours. At IWMW
2018 the workshop sessions take place from 16.15 to 17.45 on Wednesday 11 July
and the masterclass sessions from 14.45 to 17.30 on Thursday 12 July (with a coffee
break). The longer time available enables masterclasses to address a topic in depth.
Helping to ensure that a session runs smoothly

Delegates have chosen to attend your session so are likely to have a particular interest
in the subject. Their interest may reflect in-depth knowledge of the subject area, which
they want to expand even further, or the topic may be an area in wish they wish to
know more about. Since there may be a wide range of knowledge of the subject area it
can be useful to ask delegates to summarise their knowledge of the subject and what
they hope to gain from the session at the start of the session to help ensure there is a
shared understanding of the audience's knowledge and interests. (Note if you are
worried that the audience's interests may not be aligned with what you intend to cover,
you should ensure that the session abstract makes it clear what will be addressed!).
Providing audience interaction in a session

The parallel sessions are intended to be interactive and to allow participants to ask
questions, challenge assumptions, provide feedback, etc. Note that at recent IWMW
events the biggest criticism (for a small number of parallel sessions) has been when
the facilitator has treated the session as an opportunity to give a long talk!
A number of approaches can be used for audience engagement and interaction:
 Ask delegate to provide introductions and summarise interests in the session.

 Small group activities, possibly followed by report backs.
 Ask delegates to summarise what they’ve gained from the session, what they
may do differently or recommendations they may make to their colleagues.
Getting feedback
There are no specific feedback forms provided for parallel sessions, although
participants will be asked to give a numerical rating and a brief comment on the
parallel sessions they attended on the online event feedback form. Facilitators are free
to solicit feedback on their session, either by bringing along their own feedback form or
by asking for feedback at the end of their session.
9
After the Event

Feedback
We ask all delegates (including speakers and facilitators) to fill in an event evaluation form
and the relevant results pertaining to your session will be circulated to you once they have
been collated and processed.
Speakers and facilitators will be provided with a summary of feedback for their session,
including the numerical rating for their session (based on a score of 1 [poor] to 5 [excellent])
together with details of additional comments on the session.
We will publish a blog post based on the overall feedback for the event, which may include
details of the highest ranked sessions. However we will not publicly disclose feedback on
individual speakers which we feel they may not want others to see.
Stay in Touch
We encourage all attendees to keep the conversation, sharing and learning going after the
event and everyone is back at work and bogged down by the day job! There is the HE-Digital
Slack Channel which you can sign up to, and we also encourage delegates to organise local
meet-ups, either around a particular topic and/or to facilitate the attendance of an external
speaker, for which there may be a cost. IWMW is for the year, not just the three days in July!
Spread the Word
We are sure that you will have a great time at the IWMW 2018 event and find the event
engaging, positive and one that gives a real boost to your enthusiasm for your work and
specialised subject. We encourage you to tell others about the event, and the HE Digital
community, so that more people can get involved with IWMW next year and help continue
the event into its 23rd year.
