From Lecture to TikTok with NotebookLM
Monday, Nov. 10 - 10:20 AM - Main Stage

Higher ed content marketers are drowning in long-form assets, scattered requests, and shrinking timelines. Enter NotebookLM, Google’s AI-powered tool that’s changing the game for lean teams. In this session, you’ll learn how to use NotebookLM to turn a single webinar, research report, or podcast episode into dozens of digital-ready assets, from social posts and emails to video scripts and blog intros. We’ll walk through real use cases and show you how to build an efficient remix workflow that saves time, boosts output, and keeps your sanity intact. Work smarter, not harder—with AI as your content creation co-pilot.

Cut the Tech Stack. Keep the MarComm Strategy

Monday, Nov. 10, 2025 at 4:40 PM, Exhibit Hall Stage

Marketing tech stacks are bloated. Teams are tired. Budgets are shrinking. And yet, most institutions are still adding more tools instead of simplifying. In this session, we’ll explore how AI Workforces are helping higher ed leaders reduce costs and streamline operations by consolidating their MarTech stacks. Learn how Element451 and other platforms are integrating AI-powered features—from predictive analytics to dynamic content creation—that eliminate the need for point solutions. Walk away with a framework to assess your current stack, identify overlaps, and make a case for cutting tools that aren’t delivering ROI. Because the future isn’t “more”—it’s smarter.

AI Is Ready to Work — Are You Ready to Lead?


In a world of AI agents, delegation is no longer just a management skill — it’s a core competency for every staff member. From admissions and marketing to advising and student support, AI is becoming a digital teammate that needs clear instructions, context, and feedback. This talk explores what good delegation looks like in a higher ed environment, how design can teach it, and why success with AI depends as much on the user as the model. With real-world examples from Element451, we’ll examine how to help staff build confidence in handing off work to machines.
