What are the essential elements needed to provide effective and sustainable evidence-based programs for students with ASD across the age range? How can effective programs be replicated across a large system? Come learn how three states (Oregon, Arizona & Arkansas) have developed solutions for building their capacity to serve all students with autism. Specifically, the OrPATS Project (Oregon Regional Program Autism Training Sites), AzSECAP (Arizona Statewide Early Childhood Autism Project) and Easter Seals Connect Project will be discussed.

How do teachers implementing the ISSN framework put Action into the component, "Taking Action” without the project consuming the learning? The ISSN Performance Assessment Shells and SAGE are tools teachers can use to incorporate project-based learning activities into their curriculum that are specifically designed to address the four domains of global competence. This session will provide an overview of specific project-based learning components in conjunction with ISSN resources. Explore the use of SAGE and the Performance Assessment Design Shells as elements necessary to support students in Taking Action. Participants will interact with each other to discuss challenges and successes of project implementation. Participants will leave with exposure to a number of ISSN resources and an understanding of the essential project-based learning components necessary to empower students to Take Action on Global issues.

Carl Reidsema, Lydia Kavanagh, Esther Fink, and Marnie Holt, University of Queensland, and Hayley McGrice, University of Adelaide. The learning pathway is a navigational element in Blackboard courses at the University of Queensland and a visual representation of what students need to know and need to do each week to stay on track. A JavaScript visualises course materials and activities in form of a clickable pathway that easily guides users to relevant course content to help learners can _see_a pathway for achieving the learning objectives. Since the first iteration of the Learning Pathway in 2012 the system has been successfully embraced by a variety of small and large classes (1200+ students) at different levels across faculties and institutions. The presentation will introduce an updated version and showcase pathway examples from a range of different disciplines and report on usage and how students interacted with the pathway and learning resources. We will provide an outlook to the next stage of the project which aims to provide students with individually tailored maps for planning and tracking learning trajectories. These maps, embedded within Blackboard courses, will make engagement visible to academics and learning visible to students, including factual knowledge and conceptual understandings, metacognitive and problem solving abilities, as well as professional and behavioural skills. Delivered at Innovate and Educate: Teaching and Learning Conference by Blackboard. 24 -27 August 2015 in Adelaide, Australia.

With more memory available, system performance of three Dell devices increased, which can translate to a better user experience Conclusion When your system has plenty of RAM to meet your needs, you can efficiently access the applications and data you need to finish projects and to-do lists without sacrificing time and focus. Our test results show that with more memory available, three Dell PCs delivered better performance and took less time to complete the Procyon Office Productivity benchmark. These advantages translate to users being able to complete workflows more quickly and multitask more easily. Whether you need the mobility of the Latitude 5440, the creative capabilities of the Precision 3470, or the high performance of the OptiPlex Tower Plus 7010, configuring your system with more RAM can help keep processes running smoothly, enabling you to do more without compromising performance.
