Thật khôi hài khi rất nhiều nhà quản trị kinh doanh ngày nay tin rằng cấp dưới của họ rời bỏ công ty là do bất mãn về các khoản lương thưởng. Điều này không hẳn bao giờ cũng đúng. Và vấn đề nhiều khi xuất phát từ chính bản thân các “sếp”.
Một cuộc nghiên cứu gần đây đối với 20.000 nhân viên tại nhiều công ty trên toàn thế giới do Trường quản lý Vanderbilt, Mỹ, tiến hành cho thấy nguyên nhân khiến số một nhân viên quyết định chấm dứt hợp đồng là “Hành vi và thái độ quản lý nghèo nàn”. Nói cách khác, chính là vì những ông chủ tồi. Còn một trong những yếu tố quan trọng nhất làm nên “Hành vi và thái độ quản lý nghèo nàn” là kỹ năng giao tiếp yếu kém.

Virtual reality and Augmented Reality for enterprise knowledge transferDan Lejerskar
By 2030, half of all workers in Japan and 33 percent of the US workforce will require retraining. This PowerPoint presents why large organizations around the globe are using virtual in augmented reality for enhancing the skills of their workers. A McKinsey Global Institute report estimates that automation will displace between 400m and 800m people worldwide by 2030, but the report also suggests that automation can create enough new jobs if the workers are retrained
McKinsey says that countries should invest heavily in retraining workers that need to change careers.
375 million workers who lose their original jobs may need to switch careers and retrain by 2030.
The shift could be on a scale not seen since the transition of the labor force out of agriculture in the early 1900s in the United States and Europe
Governments, Academic institutions and enterprises need to invest in a new innovative knowledge transfer solutions, see McKinsey Global Institute report

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.

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.

the industry come in as university or
private institute graduates but, as
it's a young industry compared to
the others in the creative industries,
new entry routes are emerging.

Importance of supporting the development of creative and technical skills, preparing young people with transferable 21st century skills.
The UK is a world leader of film VFX (kicked of by the Harry Potter franchise), and to retain our leading edge in this sector, need to have students aware that careers dependent on strong STEM and computing science backgrounds are essential.
Working in this sector involves problem solving skills, a creative vision to develop stories and ideas that capture an international audiences imagination, the iterative process of making visual effects means that sometimes things do not work but that is a not to be seen as a failure because you learn something from that process.
We need to encourage more students to think about STEM subjects because many industries that we in the UK excel in depend on them. Not enough engineers undertaking R&D; UK 5th largest economy in the world yet we are 22nd in the world rankings for countries for registering patents (according to James Dyson in Observer last month)

A 2012 study by Oxford Economics estimates that the core UK film industry is a substantial industry, directly generating 43,900 full time equivalent (FTE) jobs and contributing £1.6 billion to national GDP.
In employment terms, the industry is larger than fund management and the pharmaceutical manufacturing sector. Furthermore, the overall trend is very positive with employment increasing since 1995, mirroring film production levels (particularly inward investment).
Creative Industries Employment (2011 –2012)
The Creative Industries accounted for 1.68 million jobs in 2012, 5.6 per cent of the total number of jobs in the UK.
Employment in the Creative Industries increased by 8.6 per cent between 2011 and 2012 ,a higher rate than for the UK Economy as a whole (0.7%) – DCMS 2014 report

Visual effects (commonly shortened to Visual FX or VFX) are the various processes by which imagery is created and/or manipulated outside the context of a live action shot.
Visual effects involve the integration of live-action footage and generated imagery to create environments which look realistic, but would be dangerous, expensive, impractical, or simply impossible to capture on film. Visual effects using computer generated imagery has recently become accessible to the independent filmmaker with the introduction of affordable and user friendly animation and compositing software.
Not to be confused with SFX –
SFX are done ‘in camera,’ that is to say they actually, physically happen. If you drop a match in a can of petrol and record the resultant explosion, that’s SFX. If you build a prosthetic arm, then attach it to your actor then have it ripped off and blood spurt out, that’s SFX. So are gunshot wounds, firing blanks, stabbing people etc.VFX are done in post-production, through the power of a computer. If you create a computer model of a spaceship and fly it across the background of your scene, that’s VFX. If you greenscreen an actor to make it look like he’s falling from a plane, that’s VFX. Now, these days, VFX is often cheaper than SFX so often explosions, spurting blood and muzzle-flashes are done as VFX.
OTHER CAREERS – pyrotechnics
Or to look at getting in via subjects
Stage 1: Researching the idea, finding money and team members to make your film
Stage 2: Got the money and an idea – you’ve got the green light! Next, preparations
Stage 3: The actual shooting of the film
Stage 4: Post-production – what you do once you’ve shot the film
Stage 5: Getting it seen in the cinema
Point out, as some will know, US and UK have different systems
Studio films/independently made films
Films go through 5 common stages
Say it is one of the most competitive and popular job markets to crack.
For teachers:
Research and Development, including Writing, Pitching, Finding Finance
Pre-Production: Production is definitely on and preparations are made
Production or Shoot: Filming
Post-Production or Post: Editing of sound, vision and visual effects
Distribution and Exhibition, which may be the crucial part of the process -marketing the film; getting it shown and watched
The handbook has been produced following a sustained dialogue between Creative Skillset, the industry and educators. It is a clear presentation of the VFX industry's voice on new entrant skills, setting out what skills the industry needs to remain world beating
The Core Skills of VFX Handbook has one simple but ambitious aim: to improve the new entrant skills available for the UK's VFX industry
The Core Skills of VFX is a comprehensive, modular guide to best practice in VFX education and training that draws on the knowledge and advice of more than 60 of the UK's top VFX professionals from many of the UKs leading companies.
