Pilot Phase. During the pre-pilot phase the outreach events should be focused on showing the new concept to interested stakeholders and communication and social media. Our strategy involves using social networks and blogs to make people aware of SoCaTel. The activities to be carried out in this phase are: Press release communication: Press releases are an essential element of any health communication strategy. Great press releases do more than keep the media and the target audiences informed about SoCaTel’s recent developments; these short, compelling documents detail our platform releases, event announcements, and other newsworthy items. They are meant to pique the interest of journalists, who may seek to cover the topic further. Crafting a great press release is often the first step to securing a newspaper article or a radio or television interview – and thus, more visibility and new customers. Considering that journalists are flooded with potential stories and pitches on a daily basis, making SoCaTel stand out is crucial. While the format for a press release is basic, the content of the release should be anything but. We follow the tips outlined below to write a great press release that shows that our organization is professional, accessible, and attractive to writers looking for stories. • Place press release on letterhead. • List official contact person and mobile phone number as well as your contact information. A common oversight that can render a press release ineffectual is a lack of contact information for reporters to follow up on. • In a press release, it is customary to indicate at the top whether the press release is for immediate release or to be kept until a certain date, which is a request that the information or news provided by the source not be published until a certain date or certain conditions have been met. • Grab attention with a good headline. The introduction of a press release is the most important. A strong headline will pull in journalists seeking good stories. • Get right to the point in the first paragraph. Reporters are busy people. We must assume that they will only read the first sentence and then scan the rest – and even that is a generous assumption. Every important point should be addressed in the first few sentences. The subsequent paragraphs should be for the “Who, What, Where, When, Why & How” supporting information. • Using quotes to draw the attention of journalists and media figures. Using quotes also gives it a personal touc...
Pilot Phase. During the pilot phase the outreach events should be focused on showing the platform to interested stakeholders and communication and social media. Our strategy involves the use of social networks and blogs to make people aware of the SoCaTel platform. The activities to be carried out during this phase are: Congress To carry out a successful congress, we adhere to the following guidelines: • Active engagement of participants during the congress: Nothing is more boring or less effective than a congress where participants do not participate. The goal is to give people an opportunity to participate actively in every session using a variety of techniques: small group discussion, large group discussion, short problem-solving tasks, involvement of participants in trying out activities, individual or paired work at the computer, and scheduled thinking and writing time. • Modelling effective pedagogy: The most successful congress sessions are those taught with good pedagogy in mind; and the least successful sessions are those where a presenter simply stands up and talks. • Giving participants time to interact and share experience/knowledge: Participants bring valuable experience and ideas to the congress. Structured mechanisms for sharing experiences and expertise must be an integral part of every congress program. This aspect of the program will be supported with unstructured social time that supports the development of networks that will last beyond the congress. • Emphasizing practical applications: An emphasis on the practical applications of the SoCaTel platform is an important aspect of providing value. Congress participants frequently comment on the value of examples of what works and what doesn't. • Giving participants time to make progress on a specific task that connects the congress topic to their teaching: Time to work individually during the congress allows participants to reflect and to make progress on adapting congress content to their own needs. This can be effectively supported during the congress by providing opportunities for participants to work one-on-one or in small groups with congress leaders. Congress programs will include scheduled work and reflection time for participants. • Making sure that participants leave the congress with specific plans for future action: the congress can produce a wide variety of results. In all cases, congress time devoted to planning the next steps is critical. Posters and oral presentations of plans have prove...
Pilot Phase. During the post-pilot phase the outreach events should be focused on retrieving the stakeholders feedback about the platform and providing brief online courses to make a long and lasting impact. Our strategy involves the use of a MOOC platform to deliver the online course content. The activities to be carried out during this phase are: MOOC delivery: Online learning programs such as Massive Online Open Courses (MOOC) provide educational opportunities for people who cannot attend classroom education because they reside in remote locations, lack time or have a severe disability. Despite the advantages offered by these programs to people with disabilities, their level of accessibility leaves much to be desired. Although research into accessibility of MOOC is still limited, findings show that many MOOC platforms and programs do not comply with current accessibility standards. Since SoCaTel aims to help elderly people who usually have some kind of medical situation or disability, we aim to deliver learning courses that comply with the Universal Accessibility / Design for all requirements. In addition to course content, other issues need to be taken into account: ● Choose a MOOC platform that complies with WCAG 2.0 recommendations ● Make the registration process accessible ● Pages containing general information about the courses must be accessible ● Allow students to complete accessibility configuration process anonymously ● Provide information on which accessibility features are available as part of the courses ● Ask users which accessibility features they need to successfully complete the course ● Gather feedback about their experience using the accessibility features provided ● Provide assistance for users in accessible formats (chats, videoconferences, etc.) Interactive multi-stakeholder closing event: An interactive multi-stakeholder event will conclude the project. Outreach Measurement Tools Some initial targets established for dissemination activities, as well as some examples of specific channels, are shown below. Activity Targets (minimum) Examples and comments Project website Hits from 50% of European countries Total hits 100/month Visitor statistics via an analytics tool will be recorded on the website to identify the country, but also interaction (measured via page depth, unique visitors and time on site) and referral sources (direct access, via Facebook or other social media platform) Press releases 3 per year, ideally in a variety of languages Upda...

Pilot Phase. There were two phases of piloting. The first phase was carried out to assess whether the trauma films in the acquisition phase produced the conditioned fear response according to SCR amplitude and subjective ratings. Changes were then made to the protocol and the second piloting phase was completed to further assess whether the stimuli were producing the conditioned fear response and to assess the feasibility of the design. The pilot participants were recruited via email and were all staff or students at King’s College London. They all met inclusion criteria for the study and gave written informed consent. Four participants completed the first phase of piloting. 50% of these participants did not meet minimum response criteria for the conditioned SCR. The mean age of these participants was 27 (SD=1.73) and three of these participants were female and one was male. The intensive presentation phase was added to the protocol to attempt to produce a more consistent conditioned response. Nine participants (three per group) completed the second phase of piloting. The mean age of these participants was 27.5 (SD=2.69), eight participants were female and one was male. Eight participants (88%) showed a conditioned SCR above minimum criteria. All participants reported an increase in subjective ratings of distress to the CS+ after viewing the trauma films. The main aim of the piloting stage was to assess whether the stimuli produced the conditioned fear response at acquisition according to SCR and subjective distress ratings. SCR was inspected visually and 10 out of the 13 pilot participants had produced an SCR amplitude of greater than 0.02µs in response to the unreinforced CS+. Eight out of nine participants in the second phase acquired the conditioned fear response according to this criterion, which was after the addition of the intensive presentation phase. For the participants who also viewed the CS- following conditioning (n=6), there was a significant difference between subjective distress ratings to the CS+ (mean=56.67, SD=23.38) and the CS- (mean=0, SD=0) following
