South Korea aims to consolidate its position as one of the world's highest-rated education systems by digitizing its entire curriculum by 2015. The country's Minister of Education announced plans for "Smart Education", focusing on customized learning through wireless networks in schools and a learning management system accessible via various devices. This will allow students to learn "whenever and wherever". The project involves providing wireless networks to all schools and an LMS that can be used on PCs, laptops, tablets, and internet-connected TVs.

Asynchronous curriculum creation and id modelsekramer4
This presentation is of a paper that looks at the three traditional models of instructional design, their stages, and their adaptability to create online courses; ADDIE, Dick and Carey, and the Kemp models. It also examines the ITD model and the use of learning objects as two examples of instructional design models that were created specifically for online learning. This presentation was given March, 2013 at the Society for Information and Teacher Education International Conference.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
