Investigating the role of an enhanced textbook: Using the principles of human...husITa
The role of the social worker is evolving, and social workers will need to adjust to the changes in social work practice in the technology age. In addition to the pressures of becoming technologically proficient, social workers will be required to absorb an increasing body of knowledge in order to remain informed supervisors.
Given these pressures and the current modalities for educating social workers, mobile learning should be explored as a solution for training social workers. The environment, physical device and operation, and content and design are integral aspects of mobile technology affecting the successful application of knowledge. This presentation summarizes a qualitative study of whether having a mobile device embedded with practice-based information developed as an enhanced textbook will make it easier for social worker learners to retrieve and retain information.
The study included a triangulation approach using grounded theory, user-centered research, and innovation diffusion theory. The grounded theory phase sought to understand how social workers are currently learning and retrieving information. The data collection methods included 25 face-to-face, in-depth interviews with field instructors. The second phase of the study developed an enhanced textbook based upon the grounded theory analysis, human-centered design principles, and cognitive psychology concepts. The field instructors’ suggestions and feedback from the data were built into the interface and design of the enhanced textbook. In the final phase of the study, innovation diffusion theory was used, and the subjects were asked if there was a benefit from the innovation.
The results provided information on how to create an enhanced textbook and how to evaluate the outcome. In the current technology environment, applied research is often used for developing new products, due to the potential for immediate results. These results illuminate the value of using evaluative research when implementing a new technology.

Estratégias de Desenvolvimento de Produto e Inovação em DefesaAndre Marquet
Temos vindo a assistir em Portugal ao desenvolvimento de um conjunto de empresas nas áreas das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC) que de acordo com a ACEPI (Associação da Economia Digital) no seu agregado em 2013 representavam 4,5% do PIB nacional, sendo que o perfil de exportações portuguesas reflete também uma tendência de progressiva consolidação dos sectores de média e elevada intensidade tecnológica. Não obstante, uma das principais limitações ao desenvolvimento deste sector tem a ver com a dificuldade das empresas nacionais em desenvolver produtos de elevada densidade tecnológica, exportáveis e por isso competitivos. No quadro atual as empresas TIC nacionais são ainda muito dependentes de desenvolvimento de soluções e serviços e por isso com custos marginais muito elevados, e portanto dificilmente escaláveis. Pretende-se com este trabalho fazer uma análise de caso, focando em alguns casos de sucesso nacionais no sector das TIC de Defesa e comparando com as melhores práticas internacionais e formulando assim, um conjunto de conclusões com vista a serem criadas melhores condições para emergência de produtos competitivos e novas empresas, na expressão inglesa "startups" das TIC de Defesa que permitam a emergência de um “cluster” altamente especializado de empresas das TIC que possam atuar indistintamente no sector civil e militar, consoante as condicionantes conjunturais do mercado e identificando áreas nas quais Portugal tem já alguma base instalada, e onde poderá apostar com vista à sua diferenciação no quadro das suas parcerias internacionais no âmbito da União Europeia, da NATO e da CPLP.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
