Schoology_intro_KH
This document discusses and compares the features of two learning management systems - Edmodo and Schoology. It summarizes that Schoology offers traditional administrative programs for attendance, grading, calendars and homework posting. It allows for real-time discussion on assignments between students and teachers. The interface is designed similarly to Facebook for ease of use. Key features include instructional tools, communication/collaboration tools, mobile apps, data analytics and personalized training. It also allows creation of open or closed student groups and various assessment tools for teachers. While both systems are free, Schoology enables better school-wide collaboration compared to Edmodo.
Digital educational system
The document discusses the benefits of digital education systems over traditional systems. It outlines technologies that will shape future education like virtual classrooms, 3D printers, cloud computing, and multi-touch screens. It also discusses innovative teaching methods like g-learning and the jigsaw technique. Overall, a digital education system provides benefits to students, teachers, principals, parents, and organizations by improving access to information, engagement, communication, and administrative functions.
E-Teacher
To be a successful e-teacher for new generation learners, teachers must engage students through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning activities. Traditional classroom methods often fail to engage learners, who are now motivated, self-directed, and access information instantly online. Evaluation should be ongoing and focus on concepts rather than just testing. Teachers must adopt technology like learning management systems and web meetings to engage learners outside the classroom and prepare them for the future.
Software Evaluation Assignment
The document evaluates and compares potential software options for Komarek School's 1:1 initiative and math department. For communication software, Schoology is recommended over Edmodo as it has more robust discussion capabilities, is more compatible with iOS, and will integrate better with their student information system in the future. For math software, Geometer's Sketchpad is recommended over Math Success Deluxe as it is more interactive, aligned to standards, compatible with their devices, and has available curriculum materials.
Academic software evaluation rubric

Forward thinking feedback at UEA
Feedback to students on their work and attainment is at the centre of successful learning in higher education. However many top rated universities find it hard to match high levels of student satisfaction with teaching and learning in general with levels of satisfaction in assessment and feedback. There are many factors which impact the quality of the feedback, and at UEA we are keen that the opportunities to enrich through digitisation are not constrained to the replication of previously paper based practices. For this reason we have initiated a project to harness all of Blackboardäó»s interactive tools to raise the quality of feedback. The overall aim of the project is to embed assessment and feedback in teaching and learning, so that feedback becomes a dialogic process and not a product in itself. This presentation is a report on our progress so far and looks at a range of interventions and their results, as we scale up to campus wide integration of Blackboard assessment and feedback tools. The evidence of impact comes from the academic community and students. We welcome interaction from fellow delegates during the presentation, as we discuss how Blackboard supports us to move forward with feedback.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
