Research, policy and practice in widening participation: the evidence from A...johnroseadams1
The session will include a brief overview of the statistical trends in part-time admissions to HE, a presentation on the approaches used in Aimhigher to track learners and the impact of Aimhigher interventions on their progress and discussion of research methods and the uses of data for targeting.
Questions will be raised about the ways in which researchers and practitioners frame an oppositional discourse and could do things differently.
Discussion groups will include:
• Trend data in part-time applicants and entrants.
• Taking the evidence from Aimhigher - how could/does this translate into research?
• Making a difference in widening participation - the responsibilities of researchers and practitioners

This qualitative study included a series of formal interviews and focus groups conducted across an elementary school district to examine the connection between transformational leadership and transformational teaching and learning in their 1:1 iPad initiative. The study examined the characteristics of transformational leadership defined as 1) vision and sense of purpose, 2) systems for professional learning and 3) reciprocal accountability for student outcomes. Findings indicate the existence of transformational teaching practices are connected to transformational teaching and learning. To effectively integrate mobile technology it is necessary to examine the contexts that exist to support the changing role of the teacher necessary to achieve desired outcomes for students.

Educational Technology in the NJ ClassroomLisa Thumann
New Jersey K12 schools have been charged with preparing our students to excel in the community, work place, and in our global society. What are we doing to accomplish this? Let's look at how these students, educators, and administrators are using digital tools to communicate, collaborate, and create in the New Jersey classroom.
These are the slides that went along with my presentation on March 13, 2012 at the Annual NJECC conference in NJ. The topic of the presentation was how to use Twitter without having an account.
With the budget cuts in NJ schools this past year, many educators don't have funding for PD. Our NJECC meeting this month will be about how schools are dealing with the cuts, what types of PD their districts are spending money on and of course, how we can harness the power of our networks to bring in free professional development virtually.
Using Google Apps to Foster Global CollaborationsLisa Thumann
One of the most effective ways to get students collaborating with each other is to use tools that are easily accessible. If the tools are browser agnostic, have no demand for installations or updates, and are intuitive, the collaboration is more likely to be effective. Together, let’s look at Google Forms, Docs and Sites as a suite of tools to facilitate and foster Global collaborations.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
