Presented at the International Society for the Scholarship of Teaching & Learning (ISSoTL) 2019
Faculty and students investigated the impact of social media on asynchronous and synchronous engagement in an online interprofessional PhD. The instructional design intentionally integrates the Scholarship of Technology Enhanced Learning (SoTEL) and Community of Inquiry (COI) framework. We evaluated community, teaching, and learning through course analytics; analysis of Social Presence in a SoTL-COI survey; and self-reported student perceptions. Partnering breaks down barriers between teachers and students. Results provide insights into teaching and learning within the virtual community. We present the instructional design framing the SoTEL inquiry, findings on asynchronous and synchronous engagement, and future directions.

Information literacy 2.0: experts or expats?Pru Mitchell
This presentation (rescued from the archives) was presented at the 2007 School Library Association of New Zealand Aotearoa Conference. It challenges library staff to reconsider their role in information literacy and how to ensure students and teachers are equipped to navigate the new information landscape. It asks for experts in contemporary information literacy issues, such as online identity, digital rights, social networking, personalisation and collaborative content, rather then expatriates continuing to do things as they did in ‘the old country’?

Social Media and Education
Class Objectives
• To provide an overview of the use of social media in educational institutions
• To explore how social media is used to advance education
Introduction
The internet has opened up spaces for individuals from different parts of the world,
generations, class, gender and race to gain access to higher education. These forms
of “borderless” learning platforms allow professors to facilitate linear interactions
with students as students take charge of their learning by posing questions and
posting content virtually. The popularity of online courses is demonstrated by a
study conducted by the learningSloan Foundation study consisting of more than
2,500 colleges and universities. The study findings indicated that online enrolments
were growing substantially faster than overall higher education enrolment, and the
17% growth rate in online enrolments far exceeds the 1.2% growth rate in the
overall higher education population (Allen & Seaman, 2010, cited in LeNoue, Hall,
Eighmy, 2011, pp. 4-5). Allen and Seaman classified an online course as one in which
more than 80% of content is delivered online and reported that over 4.6 million
students were taking such courses during the fall 2008 term (p.5). Clearly, online
courses are becoming a preferred means of learning mainly because of their
convenience—students are able to navigate, full time employment, family
responsibilities and other commitments. Many online instructional settings utilize
content management systems that allow for a two way communication between
students and the professor. The forums deviate from lecture structures and
professors in the online context as seen as facilitators of knowledge encouraging
active and experiential learning and teamwork to enhance cooperation and
collaboration. Would you categorize the online classes provided by UCW as a social
media forum?
Beyond online classrooms, universities use social media mainly for marketing,
communication and alumni relations. Universities now combine the use of social
media with their own homepages as a recruitment tools (For example, last year
UCW’s homepage provided access to Facebook, Twitter and YouTube). Universities
are also using social media to reach out to their alumni. A 2012 survey by the
Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (an association of university
and college professionals in development, alumni affairs and communications)
shows that 83 percent of U.S. colleges and universities are using social media to
engage alumni, with 96 percent on Facebook, 80 percent on Twitter, 73 percent on
YouTube, and 68 percent on LinkedIn (Frank, 2013). These statistics give an
illustration of how social media are used for communication between universities
and the public.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Obviously folks who might have thought that online courses were a fad or a marginalized continuing education phenomenon were wrong. What we have not seen during this tremendous growth period Is a co-evolution with civically engaged teaching and learning. That would suggest that there are some real opportunities.
