Portfolio of Initiatives: An Institutional Model for Implementing Student Suc...Sukhwant Jhaj
Graduating more students and increasing the quality of their learning are national priorities and Oregon is implementing 40-40-20 to improve student attainment. Due to demographic shifts, institutions must maintain institutional quality and reputation by building capacity to successfully serve an increasing numbers of first-generation and under-represented students. Educational institutions that fail to develop the capacity to serve a diverse student body, with varying ability, will face existential challenges.
Research has shown that institutions can surpass the limits set by institutional resources and students’ backgrounds by engaging students in high quality learning experiences, organized around clearly articulated learning outcomes, supported by high-impact practices, and project redesign using assessment of student learning and program effectiveness.
While there is significant research on factors that have an impact on student success, there are few models that outline how institutions can successfully implement student success initiative. Retention efforts are also distributed across the schools and colleges. This typically results in an institution developing a patchwork of programs, which are not effectively coordinated, where success of one program is negated by the actions of another project on campus, resulting in little or no progress in improving student success.
Case Study: At Portland State University we have implemented a Portfolio-of-Initiatives framework, developed by McKinsey and Company, to develop strategy, and manage implementation. Using a Portfolio-of-Initiatives approach has required us to focus on:
• A disciplined search for a variety of initiatives with the highest possibility of success.
• Rigorous monitoring of projects and sub-projects, with a focus on action.
• Supporting the champions.
• Scaling up successful ideas and projects and winding down unsuccessful projects and changing course when needed.
Portfolio-of Initiatives includes projects that aim to: improve effectiveness of existing academic policies and services; support early identification of students at risk; intentional advising and charting a pathway to degree completion; improve communication; address academic needs of students with a High School GPA below 3.0; address financial concerns; ease transition to college using peer mentoring; improve persistence of Freshmen living in residence halls; make student success data available at unit level; reduce the number of courses with preponderance (20%) of D, W, F grades; manage capacity of programs and course offerings for timely progress to graduation.
Summary: This session will focus on the theory and practice of developing institutional student success initiatives. We will offer Portfolio-of-Initiative implemented at Portland State University as a case study for the participants.

Freshman seminar presentation from Louis CabuhatLouisCabuhat
Louis Cabuhat, the Director of Education, assigns day-two of each new term to meet with students, answer questions about learning, and help others plan to be massively successful. This slide deck is only a small representation of what will be covered in the three hour session.
5 unit five teach the teacher_web 2.0 technologyLouisCabuhat
Digital media (technology) has very important implications for learning. Technology has, inarguably, become woven into everyday living. In fact, it is hard to imagine a world void of technology. The Internet (Worldwide Web) is a great example of just how access to information touches and shapes our lives. Social media is used for communication. Online video conferencing bridges gaps. And, Wi-Fi technology currently provides access to information like never seen before. The Unit Five weekly activity is intended to connect learning, personal motive and technology so that behaviors are shaped. The goal is to demonstrate just how digital media can be leveraged by an instructor in the classroom to reveal a connection between motivation and Slideshare.com for learning.
Teach the teacher achievement (unit four)LouisCabuhat
The literature on attrition suggests that learners who underestimate their ability to succeed in college-level courses become easily disillusioned once failure occurs. The key to avoiding this example of cognitive dissonance (Miller & Tanner, 2011) is to anchor achievement strategies to realistic goal-setting. The literature suggests that students who experience cognitive dissonance are more likely to dropout (Miller & Tanner, 2011). Furthermore, the unpleasurable experience of dropping out of school is manifested emotionally. However, studies show that students who are successful in managing their emotions and relationships and impulse control are more likely to persist to graduation (Allen & Lester, 2012).
So, how do you measure achievement?
Teacher the teacher engagement (week two)LouisCabuhat
In unit two, participants will create the framework for a rating scale on motivation with the idea that, ultimately, a workable Early Warning System that alerts faculty and staff of impending student issues is published for use by the college.

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.

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.
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.

Operation “Blue Star” 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.
