2014 AFFILIATE EDITORS WORKSHOP EDITORS' WORKSHOP
This workshop was intended to help newsletter editors communicate more effectively with their members. Multimedia tools and the use of cyber cafés were discussed in one group as a means to promote this. At the same time, traditional means of communication among the affiliates was also discussed. Participants broke into groups whose topics best met their needs, and they discussed what they would do to help foster or promote communication among their members. Each group developed a philosophy that explained the reasons behind why or how what they did worked, and created a list of their best practices to guide other affiliates who could not attend the meeting. Then both groups came back together and shared their findings with each other. From there, people broke into new groups with a mix of people discussing both types of newsletters and methods of communicating to decide ways to move forward in the 21st century with tools that accommodate both types of communicating. At the end, we gathered the findings together, got everyone’s e-mail addresses, and put together a document to e-mail back to each affiliate. Below is a summary of our work. Participating affiliates: ARTESOL
