Mining Opinions from University Studentsâ Feedback using Text AnalyticsITIIIndustries
Â
Feedback from university students on their experience while studying in any university allows an institute of higher learning to strategize and improve their strategies in order to enrich studentsâ university experiences. In Malaysia, a yearly student survey is conducted to solicit feedback and this research studies the feedback by using text analytics to analyze issues in the form of key terms that were discussed in the feedback among these students. The outcomes of the analysis in this paper will highlight key topics and related sub-topics in their feedback. Another outcome of the analysis highlights clusters of feedback where themes that are closely interrelated will be put into the same cluster. The unstructured feedback in this research analyzes their arrival to the university, learning activities and living experiences. The methodology used in this research entails review of related works, understanding on the importance of student experience, text analysis that consists of text parsing, filtering, and topics and clustering of themes after texts are preprocessed, and finally analyzing the outcomes produced. This paper concludes by drawing several issues to the attention of the institute.

¡ Assignment 3: Creating a Compelling Vision
Leaders today must be able to create a compelling vision for the organization. They also must be able to create an aligned strategy and then execute it. Visions have two parts, the envisioned future and the core values that support that vision of the future. The ability to create a compelling vision is the primary distinction between leadership and management. Leaders need to create a vision that will frame the decisions and behavior of the organization and keep it focused on the future while also delivering on the short-term goals.
To learn more about organizational vision statements, do an Internet search and review various vision statements.
In this assignment, you will consider yourself as a leader of an organization and write a vision statement and supporting values statement.
Select an organization of choice. This could be an organization that you are familiar with, or a fictitious organization. Then, respond to the following:
¡ Provide the name and description of the organization. In the description, be sure to include the purpose of the organization, the products or services it provides, and the description of its customer base.
¡ Describe the core values of the organization. Why are these specific values important to the organization?
¡ Describe the benefits and purpose for an organizational vision statement.
¡ Develop a vision statement for this organization. When developing a vision statement, be mindful of the module readings and lecture materials.

IEEE Pro Comm 2022 New directions in collaborative writing--LI.pdfJoe Moses
Â
New directions for collaborative writing in courses across the curriculum, including practices that significantly reduce the grading workload. Slides are for faculty and graduate instructors who 1) use team writing projects in their courses and capstone projects, 2) have used team writing projects in the past and would like to make them more effective, or 3) would take advantage of team writing projects if they had tools for designing effective assignments that reduce the paper workload.
Workshop Description
Instructors may recognize that writing provides students with unique and powerful opportunities for learning, but the time commitment required for grading writing can be a barrier to using writing in class. Collaborative writing can help instructors realize the benefits of writing to learn while turning the burden of grading into efficient teaching.
This workshop presents strategies for designing collaborative writing projects that reduce the paper workload by up to 83% while giving teams the structure they need to work together productively.
We address questions about creating diverse teams and grading individual contributions, assigning teammate roles, and structuring peer review. We also discuss strategies for addressing common student concerns about unequal teammate contributions and conflict resolution.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will be able to
Save time when grading student writing assignments
Design writing assignments that promote learning of course content
Use peer review to reinforce course learning objectives
Presentation from 'Design for learning' strand at the CDEâs Research and Innovation in Distance Education and eLearning conference, held at Senate House London on 1 November 2013. Conducted by Dr J Simon Rofe (School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London). Audio and video of the conference can be found at www.cde.london.ac.uk.

Aligning Learning Analytics with Classroom Practices & NeedsSimon Knight
Â
The Learning Analytics Research Network (LEARN) invites you to join us for a talk about the exciting ways in which the University of Technology Sydney is using participatory design to augment existing classroom practices with learning analytics. Simon Knight, a LEARN Visiting Scholar from the University of Technology Sydney, will introduce a variety of projects, including their work developing analytics to support student writing.
Come meet others at NYU interested in learning analytics while learning from the examples of leading work in Australia. A light lunch will be served and the talk will be followed by a short Q&A. RSVP is required.
About Simon Knight
Simon Knight is a lecturer at the University of Technology Sydney in the Faculty of Transdisciplinary Innovation. His research investigates how people find and evaluate evidence, particularly in the context of learning and educator practices. Dr Knight received his Bachelorâs degree in Philosophy and Psychology from the University of Leeds before completing a teacher education program and Philosophy of Education MA at the UCL Institute of Education. Following teaching high school social sciences, Dr Knight completed an MPhil in Educational Research Methods at Cambridge, and PhD in Learning Analytics at the UK Open University.
About Simonâs Talk
How do we make use of data about our students to support their learning, and where does learning analytics fit into that? Educators are increasingly asked to work with data and technologies such as learning analytics to support and provide evidence of student learning. However, what learning analytics developers should design for, and how educators will implement analytics, is unclear. Learning analytics risks the same levels of low uptake and implementation as many other educational technologies if they do not align with educator practice and needs. How then do we tackle this gap, to support and develop technologies that are implemented in practice, for impact on learning?
At the University of Technology Sydney, we have taken a participatory design based approach to designing and implementing learning analytics in practice, and understanding their impact. In our work we have identified existing practices with which learning analytics may be aligned to augment them. This talk introduces some of these projects, particularly drawing on our work in developing analytics to support student writing (writing analytics), giving examples of how analytics were aligned with existing pedagogic practices to support learning. Through this augmentation, supported by design-based approaches, we argue we can develop research and practice in tandem.

Learning Analytics -Towards a New Discipline-Dragan Gasevic
Â
The talk, motivated by the present state of learning and education, identifies a need for a systematic change of the present preactice. Learning analytics is identified as a possible way to good to address this open challenge. Some connections with evidence-based medicine are drawn. Finally, learning analytics is defined as well as some open research challenges.
It is impossible to separate the human factors from software engineering expertise during
software development, because software is developed by people and for people. The intangible
nature of software has made it a difficult product to successfully create, and an examination of
the many reasons for major software system failures show that the reasons for failures
eventually come down to human issues. Software developers, immersed as they are in the
technological aspect of the product, can quickly learn lessons from technological failures and
readily come up with solutions to avoid them in the future, yet they do not learn lessons from
human aspects in software engineering. Dealing with human errors is much more difficult for
developers and often this aspect is overlooked in the evaluation process as developers move on
to issues that they are more comfortable solving. A major reason for this oversight is that
software psychology (the softer side) has not developed as extensively
In this lightening talk we will reflect on the use of social media for learning, some of the
changes over the last decade and share the updated guidance to support how social media
can be used by students safely and appropriately to support their learning experience and
prepare them for employment.

This practical workshop will use a research-based framework and evidence informed recommendations, providing participants with tools to design and manage
programmes to enhance both student and staff experience.
Programme Leaders: co-creating support through community development, Neil FordSEDA
Â
Programme Leaders increasingly play a critical role in the student learning experience and delivery of strategic education objectives. It is also well known that Programme Leaders face
significant challenges and often receive little support in their role. This participative workshop will investigate challenges and effective forms of development for Programme Leaders. Using examples from scoping research at the University of Southampton, participants will explore networks and communities of practice as effective forms of peer support.
Step up to presentations - the PPCP approach, Laura DyerSEDA
Â
Presentations are a common means of communication worldwide with learners expected to engage to disseminate academic knowledge (Tsang, 2020). However, presentations
demands on students are little researched compared to written communication outputs
(Ducasse and Brown, 2023). This lightning talk will look at the complexities students need to
negotiate to communicate a successful presentation then introduce an adaptation to the
activity using the author's own theory - people, place, compassion, power or PPCP (Dyer, 2022).
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 wasnât 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.
Operation âBlue Starâ is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Â
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 âany matterâ at âany timeâ 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
