Customizable and Scalable Information Literacy Learning ObjectsDana Longley
This document summarizes the information literacy (IL) learning tools and resources developed by librarians at an online university to meet the needs of their 20,000+ primarily adult and distance learners. The librarians created customizable, plug-and-play IL learning objects for faculty to embed directly into their online courses. These include video tutorials, online workshops with interactive activities, self-assessment quizzes, and research guides. The goals were to engage students through active learning, accommodate different learning styles, and provide just-in-time research help within the context of coursework. Assessment of the embedded IL objects showed they improved students' research skills without greatly increasing faculty workload.
This document discusses the pros and cons of using open educational resources (OER). Some of the key benefits mentioned are that OER provide universal access to free and up-to-date learning materials, help lower costs, and allow for collaborative development of resources from around the world. However, barriers to using OER include issues with access to technology, a lack of interactive resources that appeal to different learning styles, and potential lack of student motivation in an online environment without sufficient support. Faculty may also be hesitant to adopt OER due to textbook requirements or questions about source credibility.
A Personal Learning Environment (PLE) is a facility for individuals to aggregate, manipulate, and share digital artifacts of their ongoing learning experiences in a learner-centric way. A PLE allows individuals to set their own learning goals, monitor progress, manage both content and process, collaborate with others, and support lifelong learning through critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and reflection. Effective use of widgets, JavaFX, HTML5, and mobile technologies can help optimize PLE prototypes for recommending learning resources across different contexts.
Web accessibility for people with cognitive disabilitiesdadahl
This is a talk that I presented as part of Philly Tech week 2015 (http://2015.phillytechweek.com/) at evoHaX (http://www.evohax.com/) an accessibility hackathon, organized by evoXLabs (http://evoxlabs.org/) I talked about a new task force at the W3C on accessibility for people with cognitive disabilities. Cognitive disabilities such as aphasia, autism, dementia, ADHD, Down Syndrome and others affect many people. Although the web should be a resource for everyone, many websites are difficult for people with these disabilities to use. More information about the task force -- http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/ .
This document provides an overview of content management systems (CMS) for open educational resources (OER). It discusses that popular web CMS like WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla are free and extendable options. WordPress has a dedicated accessibility team and themes that follow best practices. The document recommends starting with a simple CMS and optimizing for legibility and accessibility before design. It also suggests prototyping with off-the-shelf technologies rather than custom solutions to avoid vendor lock-in.
The document lists the group members working together as Saumya Sharma, Navneet Sharma, Parikshit Bhatt, Nikhil Tatke, and Utkarsh Tripathi. It then compares traditional and e-learning approaches, noting that traditional classrooms have physical size limits and synchronous content while e-learning allows unlimited participation anywhere asynchronously using multimedia content and digital libraries. E-learning also allows for personalization where the learner determines their own path and pace.
The document provides an overview of a staff development session on Moodle, a virtual learning environment (VLE). The aims are to: identify what Moodle is; discuss how to access it; construct a course; upload resources; examine other Moodle pages. The session will include an explanation of what a VLE is and how Moodle works, a demonstration of creating a course and adding/editing resources, and time for questions and feedback. Moodle allows organization of lessons, resources, portfolios, and deadlines, as well as communication tools for one-on-one and group collaboration on projects and documents.

1. The University Library at Newcastle developed online Skills Guides to provide consistent and accessible information literacy instruction. These guides cover key topics like finding, evaluating, and managing information.
2. Interactive online tools were also created, including a Search Strategy Planner to help students plan literature searches and a Dissertation Planner to guide research projects.
3. An online course for a faculty research program used a variety of media like videos and quizzes. Assessment showed improved student satisfaction and engagement with the blended learning approach.
Jisc aims to support UK universities through technology and digital transformation. It provides digital infrastructure and services to improve education and research. Jisc's vision is for UK institutions to be world leaders in applying technology. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the need for technology-enabled learning. Jisc's report recommends universities embed digital culture, invest in blended learning, and ensure inclusivity and accessibility in curriculum redesign. Going forward, Jisc will help universities in areas like leadership, learning and teaching, student experience, and research through solutions, advice and partnerships.
This document discusses dual-mode or hybrid teaching, where students are taught both face-to-face in a classroom and online simultaneously. It notes that dual-mode teaching works best when it combines the in-person and online experience into a cohesive whole that keeps the class together and allows all students to be included. However, it cautions that dual-mode teaching should only be used if it is pedagogically appropriate for both in-person and remote students and there is adequate staffing to fully integrate remote students. The challenge is to provide an equitable experience for both groups using technologies not originally intended for this type of dual delivery.
How will the growth in online learning shape the future design of learning sp...James Clay
The physicality of online learning is an issue that will impact on university campuses as more institutions move to a blended programmes containing elements of online and digital learning and physical in-person learning. In this session James Clay from Jisc will explore the challenges that growth in online learning will bring to learning spaces and the university campus. He will explore what is required for, in terms of space for online learning, but will also consider the space and design implications of delivering online teaching as well. He will discuss what some universities are doing today to meet these challenges and requirements. He will reflect on a possible future where we are able to maximise the use of our space as students have the flexibility to learn online, in-person and across a spectrum of blended possibilities.

There is something very beautiful and sensual about a new book. As you open it for the first time you can feel the stiffness of the spine of a book that has never been read. Books are indeed wonderful things, but still, the iPad is the future of reading…
What do we understand by Education 4.0 and the potential impact on universities?James Clay
How will teaching be transformed?
What does personalised adaptive learning look like?
Could we re-imagine assessment?
Do we need to build a fluid digital campus?
What needs to be in place to make that happen?
What do you need to do, to make that happen?
What about privacy, ethics and security?
Digital is core to the UK’s higher education sector, enhancing and creating efficiencies across all aspects of the student experience and supporting staff in delivering excellence. Jisc is the UK digital body dedicated to the education and research communities. Jisc’s vision is for the UK to be the best research and education nation in its use of digital technologies.
“New technologies and approaches are merging the physical, digital, and biological worlds in ways that will fundamentally transform humankind. The extent to which that transformation is positive will depend on how we navigate the risks and opportunities that arise along the way. The changes are so profound that, from the perspective of human history, there has never been a time of greater promise or potential peril.”
– The Fourth Industrial Revolution by Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum
The UK education sector needs to transform to meet the requirements of industry 4.0 and student expectations. Artificial intelligence and mixed reality will play a critical role in successfully upskilling, retraining and assessing our workforce to ensure no one is left behind. The world of Industry 4.0 is one of high-level skills such as analysts, AI wranglers, problem solvers and creatives, but also a world of dexterity, such as artisans, carers and robot carers and maintainers.
What’s the first thing you do in the morning? What’s the first thing you do when you sit down at your desk at work? I suspect you are probably checking your e-mail? It wouldn’t surprise me that you leave your e-mail client (like Outlook) open all the time and respond as those little pop-ups appear on your screen. So how often do you check your e-mail?
- The document discusses priorities and initiatives for higher education learning and teaching, including:
- Developing learning analytics and personalization services, as well as digital skills and capabilities.
- Creating an "Intelligent Campus" using data to improve the student experience and institutional efficiencies.

The document discusses an "Intelligent Campus" project that aims to improve the student experience, make smarter use of campus space, and increase organizational efficiencies through the use of data and technology. It notes the project has engaged over 120 universities and colleges and is collaborating with a small number of pilot programs to test uses of an intelligent campus technology infrastructure.
Smart buildings and spaces are already here; the technology, sensors and data analysis capability are all available, but it isn’t all joined up and so has limited scope in terms of what we can learn and how we can use the knowledge.
Could we build not just a smart science park, but start to build an intelligent science park, where data from the physical, digital and online environments can be combined and analysed, opening up vast possibilities for more effective use of spaces, buildings, energy, people, and then some…
The smart campus is already here; the technology, sensors and data analysis capability is all available, but it isn’t all joined up and so has limited scope in terms of what we can learn and how we can use the knowledge.
In order to enhance the student experience, allow for more effective and efficient use of space, could we take the smart campus and make it intelligent?
Universities and colleges spend billions on their campuses, yet they are frequently underutilised and are often a frustrating experience for students. In this session, I will describe the campus of the future. How does a traditional campus become a smart campus? What are the steps to make a smart campus, an intelligent campus? We have an opportunity to provide our members with a service that can help them address that problem. If we extend our learning analytics infrastructure to collect data from a wider range of institutional software and devices then we can deliver novel insights to institutional managers to help them make their campuses more efficient, improve student experience and deliver higher quality teaching.
The future intelligent campus service aims to find effective ways to use data gathered from the physical estate and combine it with learning and student data from student records, library systems, the virtual learning environment (VLE) and other digital systems. This session will describe what data can be gathered, how it can be measured and explore the potential for enhancing the student experience. It will demonstrate and explain to the delegates what the exciting future of the intelligent campus. Importantly I will also ask delegates to consider the ethical issues when implementing an intelligent campus as well as the legal requirements.

"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...Fwdays
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

5. Benefits
• Self-guided any time
• Targeted at new students when they
arrive
• Links self-help to physical locations
6. • Requires Bluetooth to be enabled
• Have to download an app
• Making sure content is succinct and
relevant
• Tying in with other self-help
• Locations limited by architecture
Challenges
7. • Number of beacons to use
• Formats of content
• Augmented reality (AR)
• Integration with other media (and
Information Points?)
Developments
we've piloted this project at Collegiate Library, our smaller building in order to test how the beacons work, their uptake and how we could use them to promote library and IT resources within the building
we've placed 8 beacons around Collegiate Library, concealed in different locations but have promoted a beacon is in range by using this symbol
the beacons offer a self guided tour for students at all times of the day, inside and outside of staffed hours and so provide an element of 'Out of Hours' support
we've decided to use the beacons to target new students when they arrive to offer a tour to a building they aren't familiar with
the content we've decided to include links to physical locations within the library building which offers help to students in the space, for example the print top up kiosk
we've come across a few challenges whilst working with the beacons and have found that these are mostly technological limitations
the beacons require a mobile device to have Bluetooth enabled and need an app 'Physical Web' to be downloaded and to be open on the phone for it to pick up the beacons
as we didn't want to overwhelm users with information we needed to make sure that our content was easy to read quickly and also relevant to where a user might be standing (bearing in mind how far they can walk away from the beacon and becoming out of range and losing the information provided)
we found as well that the locations that we could place the beacons in was limited by the architecture of the building i.e. corridors, walls, stairs limiting the flow of the tour and blocking the range of a beacon
moving forward we'd like to address the number of beacons that we could use, perhaps only using 1 beacon that can pick up where you are in the building using Augmented Reality to spot different elements of the building which in turn creates a 'pop up' feature explaining how to use it, for example a pop up next to a printer to explain how a student can release a print job
