This document summarizes a presentation on supporting online students through academic advising. The presentation covered emerging technologies that can engage students, such as social media, blogs, and video sharing platforms. It also discussed principles of connectivism and communities of practice in online advising. The presentation suggested considering students' technology use and looking to the future, which may include increased digital advising resources, mobile/BYOD options, and web/video conferencing. It emphasized connecting with students in multiple ways through purposeful advising delivery.
Best Practices in Online Academic Advising DeliveryLaura Pasquini
The Global Community for Academic Advising (NACADA) has identified the need to educate advisors on how to effectively implement technology into their practice. The NACADA Technology in Advising Commission continues to thrive to support new initiatives and tap into the advising needs for the profession. During the 2009 NACADA Winter Institute, the first hands-on, interactive NACADA Technology Seminar (Pasquini, Steele, Stoller & Thurmond, 2009) introduced participants to a conversation about technology in advising. NACADA continues to support online webinars to share expertise and resources throughout the United States, and across the globe. Other examples of online NACADA development and training initiatives can be found on commission group wikis, regional blogs, slide sharing websites, NACADA Facebook group page and daily on the NACADA Twitter stream.
Overall, a renewed emphasis for collaborative, online engagement in the higher education community is evolving to develop new forms of interaction and assessment. Participants will learn and share examples of online advising delivery being utilized in the advising practice. Session facilitators will share their experience advising with social networks, IM, web conferencing, podcasts, slidecasting, and other online resources. The growing use of social media and online tools, combined with collective intelligence and mass involvement, is gradually but deeply changing the practice of learning (The Horizon Report 2008). Electronic technologies can create a change in pedagogy for students, staff and faculty connected to the advising process. Advising units need to think about online advising development that includes increased participation, self-paced learning design, and continual assessment and feedback.
The #Selfie : Modeling Your Online Persona to Support Student Success
#NACADAmelb Conference 2015, Melbourne, Australia June 26, 2015
#AdvSelfie digital handout: http://bit.ly/advselfie and Slide Deck
Our students are sharing their lives online with friends, family, and peers. Often times they’re willing to share their lives with us too. But many advisors are hesitant to heed the invitation. Developing your own online persona can help to create an open atmosphere for starting conversations, addressing mental health issues, and growing a network of support. So... go ahead, take that selfie. Post it up and put it online... you may be surprised what comes of it!

Growing a whole institution culture of commitment to student engagementJisc
As the student engagement agenda has gained momentum in UK higher and further education, there are numerous interesting and complex issues that arise and seemingly prevent a whole institutional commitment to working with students as partners.
Issues such as departmental autonomy, traditional hierarchies and power dynamics, and lack of time invested in innovative student engagement all contribute to a landscape where engaging students remains a project rather than a culture, and something done in a few departments rather than across a whole institution.

Digital student - understanding students' expectations and experiences of the...Jisc
Jisc’s research into students’ experiences and expectations of technology began in 2006 with the Learners’ Experiences of e-Learning programme. This became a reference study for the sector and helped change the way institutions understand students’ experiences with technology. Studies in partnership with the British Library, and work carried out by Jisc’s recent ‘Developing Digital Literacies' programme, have furthered our understanding of students' digital practices and needs. Now, through Jisc’s Co-Design programme, the Digital Student project has brought us up to date with how students' expectations are changing and what institutions are doing to keep up with them.
This workshop will offer delegates an opportunity to engage with the findings and recommendations from the Digital Student study and to consider what impact these could have in their own institutional context. A large part of the session will be taken up with a scenario planning activity in which delegates explore different outcomes depending on whether or not institutions rise to the digital challenge. There will be an opportunity to share effective approaches and to inform the next phase of activities being planned by Jisc to support the Digital Student Experience into the future.

This session will utilize coaching skills to create a culture of learning and career development. Do your leaders see employee engagement as a survey, program, or completing a course? Do you want your leaders and employees to convert feedback and conversations into meaningful action and growth? Unconscious bias, resistance to feedback and organizational politics can make it challenging to measure the needs of your teams and organizations. With the coaching skill everyone can be equipped to help drive learning and growth.
There are a number of occupational roles, positions, and career paths into learning design. This is an introduction to a few ways learning/instructional design careers are evolving in education and industry today.

#SMsociety15 Conference, Toronto, Canada - July 29, 2015
This panel will focus on the intersections between social media and academia, in relation to the theme of Social Media’s Impact on Society, but discussion will examine impact through the lens of trust and credibility within online communities. In an era of knowledge abundance, scholars have the capacity to distribute and share ideas and artifacts via digital networks and communities of practice. This fosters extensive cross-disciplinary public ties and rewards connection, collaboration, and curation between individuals rather than roles or institutions. These informal online developments and support networks in higher education is contributing to scholarly publications, professional development, and personal support. That being said, participation within these networks offers both opportunities and challenges with engagement. This panel will discuss their perspectives and encourage audience participants to share their stories, questions, and ideas on this topic.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
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 “any matter” at “any time” 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
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.

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.

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.
