Updating Content and Maintaining Traffic To An ICT Project

After creating, designing, and


launching your website, there are
other works that you have to do you
have to regularly maintain and update
it to keep the contents fresh. This will
encourage people to view your site
more often.

1. Update Contents Regularly

Add fresh, new contents like write-ups, pictures, videos, infographics, blogs,
news articles, and ideas regularly. Aside from the reason that it will attract new
visitors, search engines can recognize when you are being active and act
accordingly by visiting your site more often too.

2. Update Links

Regularly check links to other sites to make sure they are current and better if
you have new links to add. You can also utilize an RSS feed that will update
subscriber each time you publish fresh content to the website.

3. Reply To Inquiries

Be active and reply to your visitors on any inquiry, questions or comment that
they may have, activity in your site will increase more traffic and visitors.

4. Maintaining Your Site

Maintenance will ensure that your files and file directory structures are up and
running properly at all times, and all your links are functional. You should check that
any changes or addition you make will not affect the links and loading of images and
pages. Make use of e-mail feedback portion of your site to make you aware of the
problems that visitors may convey to you so that they will be resolve quickly.

ICT Management and Support

Sustaining an ICT project for Social


Change or any other websites requires
different forms of ICT-related management
and support to ensure that all areas are
running smoothly and address possible cause
of concern. Such forms of management and
support include:

1. Change Management • This aims to ensure


that standardized methods and procedures
are used for efficient handling of all changes. Change is an event that results in a
new status of one or more configuration items.

2. Request Management• This focuses on fulfilling service requests which are often
minor changes (e.g. requests to change a password) or request for information

3. Problem Management • This aims to resolve the root causes of incidents and thus
to minimize the adverse impact of incidents cause by errors within the IT
infrastructure and to prevent recurrence of incidents related to these errors.
4. Infrastructure Management • This process describes the processes within ITIL
(Information Technology Infrastructure Library) that directly relate to the ICT
equipment and equipment and software that is involved in providing ICT services to
customers.

IT Infrastructure refers to the composite hardware, software, network resources and


services required for the existence, operation and management of an enterprise IT
environment.

5. Operations Management • This provides the day-to-day technical supervision of


the ICT infrastructure.

6. Technical Support • Refers to the specialist technical function for infrastructure


within ICT.

7. Service Support • This focuses on the user of the ICT services and primarily
concerned with ensuring that they have access to the appropriate services to support
the business functions.

Information Sheet 2

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF AN ADVOCACY VIA AN ICT


PROJECT FOR SOCIAL CHANGE

The performance of an advocacy via an ICT Project for Social Change and
any other online campaigns can be measured through available monitoring tools and
evaluating techniques such as user interviews, feedback forms, and Analytics.

An Introduction to Google Forms

Drive is an integral part of every Google


account, and is best known as a cloud storage
service and for its Google office suite. One of its
lesser-known features is Google Forms, a form
building tool that is as simple or as complex as you
need it to be.

User interviews in the form of interactive


surveys can be done by using Google forms.
Google Forms is a web application much like Google Docs or Google Sheets and is
used to create interactive surveys and other types of forms. Some common uses
include:

 Event registration.
 User polls and questionnaires.
 Email subscription sign-up forms.
 Quizzes.
 Product orders.
 Contact forms.

Like the other G Suite apps, you can store all your forms in your Google
Drive. You’ll also be able to take advantage of Google’s sharing function. This is
especially helpful if you work with a team to create content for your website and you
want to enable others to collaborate on your surveys or other forms.

Of course, before you can use Google Forms, you have to sign up for a
Google (an @gmail) account.

How to Create a Blank Google Form

Now that you have a Google account, it’s time


to create your first form. Head over to the Google
Forms homepage and place the cursor on the
multicolored plus sign (+) in the bottom-right corner.

The plus sign turns into a purple pencil icon;


click it to create a new form.

Pro Tip: You can type “forms.new” into the address bar
from any browser and hit Enter to create and open a
new blank form automatically.

How to Customize Your Form

One of the first things you might want to do after


you create a new blank form is give it a bit of
personality. Google Forms lets you customize the
theme and help it stand out by adding an image, color,
and font style.

Click the artist’s palette at the top of the screen.


From here, you can choose a header image from one of
the many stock photos provided (or upload one of your
own), the primary color of the form, the background
color, and font style.

While customization is lacking when it comes to


the theme of forms (aside from being able to upload any
image for the header), Google Forms makes up for it with everything else it has to
offer.
After you customize
your form, close the theme
options to return to your
survey.

How to Choose Question Types

When you create a Google Form,


you can choose the types of questions you
want people to answer. Whether you want
static answers from a multiple-choice form
or essay-length responses, you can create
your ideal form in a snap!

Click the drop-down menu next to the question field. Then, select the type of
question you want from the list.

Your choices are:

 Short Answer: Responses only require a few


words. You can set rules people have to follow in
their answer with data input validation. Great for
email addresses or URLs.
 Paragraph: Responses require long-form answers
of one or more paragraphs. Data input validation is
available for this type of response, as well.
 Multiple Choice: People choose between a set of
options (one per question). You can include
“Other” and an option so people can input a short
answer. Depending on a person’s answer, you can
also send them to a different section of the form.
 Checkboxes: Responders choose one or more of
a set of options, including the “Other” option for a
short answer. Depending on a person’s answer,
you can send them to a different section of the
form.
 Drop-down: People choose their answer from a
set of options in a drop-down menu (one per
question). Based on the answer, you can, again,
send people to another section of the form.
 File Upload: This allows the person to upload a file in response to a
question. Uploaded files use Google Drive space for the survey owner. You
can specify the size and type of files people can upload.
 Linear Scale: People can rate your question on a scale that starts at 0 or
1, and ends on a whole number from 2 to 10.
 Multiple Choice Grid: This creates a grid from which people can select
one answer per row. Optionally, you can limit answers to one choice per
column and shuffle the row order.
 Checkbox Grid: This option creates a grid from which people can select
one or more answer per row. Optionally, you can limit answers to one
choice per column and shuffle the row order.
 Date: Responder must choose the date as an answer to the question. The
default is day, month, and year. Optionally, you can include the time in
people’s answers.
 Time: Responder must choose the time of day or a duration of time.

How to Add More Questions

If you’re creating a survey or quiz,


you’re likely going to include more than one
question on it. Google Forms makes it
super-easy to add as many questions as
you want, and you can vary the types of
questions. You can even separate them into
sections, so everything doesn’t appear on a
single page.

To add more questions to your form,


click the plus sign (+). To add another
section to separate questions, click the icon
that looks like two rectangles.

Optionally, you can give


the section a name and
description to distinguish it from
other sections later on.

If you want to add any


questions to a different section,
it’s simple! Just drag and drop them between sections. At the end of the section,
click the drop-down menu to choose where the form should direct people next.

How to Store Responses in Google Sheets?

Google Forms stores the answers to your Form automatically. It saves each
response in the “Responses” tab at the top of your form and updates in real-time as
people answer questions.
How to Collaborate on Forms

Like all Google suite applications, Forms lets you collaborate with others.
Anyone you share a unique link with can edit the questions in your form. This makes
it a lot easier to work on the same survey with a group.

To do this, click the three dots at the top of the page, and then click “Add
Collaborators.” Next, under the heading “Who Has Access,” click “Change.”

Select “On – Anyone with the link”


to generate a shareable link. Anyone with
this link can then access and edit your
form. Click “Save.”

Now, you can copy and share the


link with anyone you want to have access
to your form. You can do a lot more
with these shareable links, as
they also work with other Drive files and
on mobile.
However, if you prefer a more in-depth way to analyze responses from your
form, you can generate a new Google
Sheet—or link to an existing one—to store
and view answers. When viewing data stored
in a spreadsheet, you can apply many types
of calculations and Google Sheets’ functions
to create formulas that manipulate your
responses. To do this, select the “Responses”
tab, and then click the green Sheets icon.

Next, click “Create” to generate a new spreadsheet to store all your answers.
Each spreadsheet contains all responses, along with a timestamp of when the
survey was completed.

If you already have a spreadsheet you


want to use, you can do that, too! Instead of
clicking “Create,” click “Select existing
spreadsheet,” and then click “Select.”

Choose the spreadsheet you want from


the list of those saved on your Google Drive,
and then click “Select.”

As people answer each question in the


form, their responses dynamically appear in the
selected Google Sheet spreadsheet.

How to embed Google Forms on any


Website

After the form has been created, click on


the Send button as shown in the image below.
Select the embed option from the available options of sending. This would
show an <iframe> link that has to be copied.

Add this <iframe> link in the HTML


source code of the page where the form
has to be embedded. This will
automatically display the form and allow it
to be filled on the page itself. The example
below illustrates how the form has to be
embedded.
Output: The output will look like this.

options and functionalities:

website | without iframe | without Google branding

How To Add Google Forms To A Facebook Page

If you have a Facebook Page for your


business or company, you might want to convert
your fans or followers into subscribers. Hence,
for doing that, you need to add a form to your
Facebook page. Basically, the major reason for
adding forms on Facebook or other social media
profile is to achieve a higher number of views
and submissions.

Further, adding forms to Facebook will


also help in conducting a survey, selling
products on your page, collecting feedback and
suggestions, offering cashback from your
affiliate sales and a lot more.

In order to add the forms on Facebook page, you need to click on the “Send”
button. Here, you will find a number of options for sharing your form including email,
link sharing, HTML, etc. Using these options, you can share the form with people via
email or social media, or embed it into a webpage.

Now, to post this form on Facebook page you can directly share it by clicking
on the Facebook icon present on the right side.

Adding Review Elements On Website

In the digital world, customers rely on reviews online to determine the quality
of any product or service. According to a survey by Search Engine Land conducted
in 2014, 88% of consumers trust online reviews as much as personal
recommendations. So, reviews work better than the word of mouth when it comes to
increasing brand awareness and reliability.

Online reviews have become indispensable means through which buyers can
inquire and decide on what to buy. As a matter of fact, most customers don’t even
visit a shop or business before reading reviews about them.
How do my clients write a review on my website?

Reviews can be really valuable to build trust on your website as well


as improving your Google ranking. There are two places that you may want to get
reviews for.

 To display on your website


 For 3rd party review websites

To display on your website

The simplest way to get reviews on your website is to ask for them!

1. Create a page on your website called “Reviews” and add a paragraph


explaining why you would like client reviews.
2. Add an Email form block for the reviewer to submit the review on.
3. Link to that page from other places on your website or send the Review
page directly to clients who you would like to get reviews from.

After you have received these reviews via your website or email, you can add
them to your website in a variety of ways. The length of the reviews may determine
how you would like to display them.

Longer form reviews and testimonials can be done as case studies on full
pages or as blog articles using images, videos and text as needed.
For 3rd party review websites

The best places to get reviews is on review sites like Google My Business,
Facebook, Trip Advisor and any others that you may use in your industry. Again, you
can ask for these reviews on your website and, using a link, take users to the
specific location to place these reviews for you.

These reviews help with where you are ranked in a Google search as Google
uses these reviews as a part of its ranking process. You can then also use a system
like Repuso to display these reviews on your website.

If you are an e-commerce customer, you can use TrustSpot to get reviews
and feedback from users after they have purchased from you. TrustSpot is a review
& rating service that can help you to increase your shop’s sales and customer loyalty
by allowing you to easily collect and share feedback about their purchase.

Facebook Reviews

There are many ways that potential leads and current customers can
communicate with your ICT project for Social Change but how they perceive you
online is greatly influenced by your presence on Facebook.

For businesses, Facebook Reviews is a star system where your customers


can rate your service or product and leave a comment. Users can comment on each
other’s reviews and talk about your business openly.

This review system appears on your business page and can be read by
anyone who visits your business page. Customers can even check in at your
physical address and will be prompted to leave a review when they do so. Meaning it
is not only your behavior online that influences what appears there.

How to get Facebook Reviews

Setting up Facebook Reviews on your business page couldn’t be easier.


Follow these simple steps to get started.

1. Go to ‘Settings’ located at the top of your page.


2. Click ‘Page Info’ and choose ‘Local Business’ as your Facebook Page
category. (The Review feature isn’t yet available for celebrity pages.)
3. You’ll then be given an option to make your business category more specific:
restaurant, café, hospital or healthcare facility, hotel, etc.
4. Click ‘Save changes’.
5. Next, you have to add your business’ physical address or location. Again, go
to ‘Settings’ and click ‘Page Info’.
6. Click ‘Address’ and enter the information required, then tick the box next to
‘Show map’, ‘check-ins’, and ‘star ratings’.
7. Click ‘Save changes’.
How To: Enable Reviews on Your Business Facebook Page

1. Log in to your Facebook account and navigate to your business Facebook page,
then click "Settings" on the top right-hand side of the page.

2. Click "Templates and Tabs" in the left-hand menu

3. Scroll to the
bottom and click
"Add a Tab"
4. Under "Reviews," click the "ON"
button next to "Show Reviews,"
then "Save" at the bottom.

Google Analytics and Facebook Insights

You can also evaluate the performance of your ICT Project for Social Change
by monitoring the activities happening in your site shown by Google Analytics. If you
are managing a Facebook page, then your page activities are shown via Facebook
Insights.

Google Analytics

Google Analytics allows you to track and understand your customer or site
user’s behavior, user experience, online content, device functionality and more.
Google Analytics allows you the information needed to help you shape the success
strategy of your business, discovering things you probably never knew about visitors
on your site.

Google Analytics is a very simple tool, which helps you see everything that's
happening on your site. With the help of this tool, you can see how your site is
performing so that you can take steps to improve it.

Google Analytics has been discussed comprehensively in Module 4:


Managing An Online ICT Project For Social Change.

For a more detailed guide on how to connect Google Analytics to a


WordPress website, using Site Kit plugin, refer to this YouTube Video tutorial:

Video Title: How to Install Google Analytics in WordPress in 10 mins

For a more detailed guide on how to add Google Analytics to a Weebly


website, refer to this YouTube Video tutorial:

Video Title: How to setup google analytics tracking ID in Weebly 2019


Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7MW573Pcbo
Facebook Insights

You can’t add Google Analytics directly to a Facebook page like you can to a
website because Facebook doesn’t allow this. But you can use Facebook Analytics
instead to analyze your Facebook data. Facebook Insights tracks likes, page views,
and more. Facebook analytics tells you who your audience is and how they’re
interacting with your page.

Why use Facebook Insights?

Understanding how and when people interact with the content you post on
Facebook is also an important way to make sure the Facebook algorithm works for
you, rather than against you. Facebook Page Insights gives you detailed analytics for
your Facebook Page, so you can track what works, learn how people interact with
your content, and improve your results over time.

Facebook Insights has been discussed comprehensively in Module 4:


Managing An Online ICT Project For Social Change.

Information Sheet 3

MONITORING SOCIAL IMPACT OF ADVOCACIES VIA AN ICT


PROJECT
ICT is an acronym which
means, Information and
Communications Technology. It
refers to the technologies used to
acquire needed information
through telecommunication. It
also studies how modern
communication technologies
affect society. Indeed, ICT is
easily accessed and used every
day by users. With this idea,
Information and Communications
Technology gives a chance for
people from around the world to
communicate; leading to the
success of various advocacies.

A perfect example for ICT as a medium for social movement would be the use of
social networking sites, such as Twitter, Facebook, and Skype¸ to promote the
Tunisian Revolution. This social movement began in December 2010, because of
the lack of political freedoms and poor living conditions. Many Tunisian people
leaned on the use of social media sites to spread awareness of the revolution.

This lead to awareness for


people around the globe to
understand what was taking
place in Tunisia during the
revolution.

Another would be users creating websites, webpages, even blogs to promote their
cause. For instance, a website entitled, Women’s Learning Partnership
acknowledges ICT as a means for social change. In this case, the organization aims
to connect the use of ICT to eliminate the marginalization of women.

Information and Communications
Technology has different impacts when it is
used as a medium for promoting social
change. May it be cyber-bullying, promotion for
feminism, abolition of slavery, or industrial
revolution, ICT gives an opportunity for people
to be aware of the problems in the society and
offers them the opportunity participate and be
part of these social changes.

Information Sheet 4

Reflecting on the ICT Learning Process and How It Affects World


View

In the beginning, computers were created to facilitate engineering and


scientific calculation. Gradually computers found their way into business and
industry. Computers were quite expensive initially, and only those with enough
budget would be able to afford them. Nowadays computers have reached a point
that they have also become common learning tools, finding their way into school and
homes to accomplish tasks, and obtain knowledge and information.

ICT and Self-Learning

Integrating and effectively using ICT as a tool for efficient and effective
learning is what every computer-based educational system can hope for. ICT is a
tool for enriching as students’ cognitive skills such as critical thinking, synthesis
analysis, and problem-solving capability.

As an individual learner in school or at home, the student now has access to


enormous educational resources in advancing and learning more than what the
regular classroom can offer. The students have now in their fingertips the resources
that were not available without ICT. The efficiency and ease in accessing these
resources has never been as fast as today.
ICT also allows learning outside the confines of a classroom and beyond the
time usually designated for learning. ICT in education has helped in collaborative
learning. Effective teachers act more of a guide rather than simply relaying
information to students.

The challenge today concerns self-discipline and self-management of young


students in the use of ICT since computers also tend to attract them more on
entertainment and games, which distract them from learning.

ICT and Society

ICT can very much help improve the quality of community life. Nonetheless,
the opportunities and challenge of implementing ICT for development needs further
and deep study to ensure its effective application. Providing reliable, timely, and
accurate information to the resident or citizens of the locale or country would be
beneficial to everyone. An effective ICT execution should provide the following
benefits:

1. Better income and business climate


2. Superior help system
3. Improve educational system
4. Constant information campaign
5. Participative decision-making for constituents
6. Equitable sharing and utilization of resources
7. Effective feedback and mechanism to enhance government services.

2. Make a self-assessment on the impact of your ICT Project for Social Change.
Below are some questions that will guide you in your reflection:

 Did you post any poems, songs, manuscripts, video clips on community belief
systems, and the like created by people from the immediate community?
 Did posting on the website help you increase or share your knowledge and
creative expression?
 As a content creator, do you feel encouraged to continue contributing to the
website?
 Do you think the contents of this website can be applied to various concerns
such as environment, health, and governance in an enlightened and effective
manner resulting in a mutually agreeable and beneficial consensus for
community actions?

Refer to Table 2: Rubric # 2 for Essay-type Questions shown in page 4 to guide you
in answering.
What I Have Learned

I learned that:

 Regularly maintaining and updating a website is very important


to encourage website visitors.
 The performance of an advocacy via an ICT Project for Social
Change or any other website can be measured through available
monitoring tools and evaluating techniques such as user interviews,
feedback forms, and Analytics
 ICT is easily accessed and used every day by users. With this
idea, Information and Communications Technology gives a chance for
people from around the world to communicate; leading to the success
of various advocacies.
