Lean Kanban India 2015 | Tearing down the walls:Leveraging Lean and Agile met...
This document discusses leveraging Lean and Agile methods to improve organizational culture. It begins with a quick survey about how participants feel about their organization's culture. It then introduces an exercise where participants pair up and explore words or phrases that convey something true about themselves without judgment. The document goes on to define culture and reference models of cultural development. It notes that culture, Lean Kanban, and adoption/transformation are interrelated. The conclusion emphasizes that everyone wants to feel supported, heard, and able to contribute their best in the workplace. Organizational culture impacts adoption of new methods and a hierarchical "follow the book" culture may resist transformation while an empowering culture can create and evolve their own processes.

The document outlines the 7 steps for writing a successful research paper: 1) Choose an interesting topic with an arguable thesis, 2) Find credible primary and secondary sources, 3) Evaluate and organize sources into a working bibliography, 4) Avoid plagiarism by properly citing ideas, 5) Read research and take notes, 6) Create an outline and rough draft with logical arguments supported by evidence, 7) Revise draft for structure, citations, grammar and spelling. The key aspects are developing an arguable thesis, distinguishing primary and secondary sources, properly citing research, and using evidence to support the argument.
Tearing down the walls: Leveraging Lean and Agile methods to create your own
This document discusses leveraging Lean and Agile methods to transform organizational culture. It begins with a quick survey about employee satisfaction with current culture. Then an exercise is described where participants pair up and explain or explore words/phrases that convey something true about themselves. Next, the document defines culture and references models of successive stages of human and organizational consciousness. It contrasts characteristics of a culture undergoing Agile adoption versus transformation, noting differences like hierarchical versus servant leadership structures and fear/micromanagement versus trust/empowerment. The goal is to help organizations evolve from rigidly following processes to creating their own adapted processes.

OER: Reducing Costs, Expanding Access, Improving Efficacy (#UNTOA16)
The cost of college textbooks has grown to a point that virtually every campus is now seeking solutions. While many colleges and universities have successfully reduced costs through stop-gap measures such as rental programs and textbook reserves, the greatest potential for permanently solving the problem lies in Open Educational Resources (OER), which are academic materials that are freely available online for everyone to use, adapt, and share. Institutions across the country have begun to leverage OER to reduce textbook costs, expand access to information, and enable faculty to better tailor materials to their courses. This talk will provide an overview of the OER movement to date, how it is playing out on campus, and research showing the impact on students. It will also help frame opportunities in the open, digital environment to improve teaching, learning and research for the advancement of society.

We live at a time of transition between the disconnected, analog past to the wired, digital future. Nowhere is the tension between these two worlds more obvious than in education, where schools and universities hold onto centuries-old paradigms at the same time they seek to harness today’s technology. Many of these paradigms — for example, the traditional lecture-style course that we often see replicated in MOOCs — create unnecessary limitations and barriers that hold back the transformational power of technology in education. Openness is the key to overcoming these barriers and unleashing all that is possible in the digital environment. Teachers, learners, researchers, and policymakers around the world are awakening to this potential, creating a new generation that will define the future of education. I’m part of Generation Open, are you?

It concludes by noting trends in OER adoption in K-12 education.
#OESS18 | Holding the Line on Open in an Evolving Course Content Landscape
The open educational resources (OER) movement has grown considerably in the past decade. With this growth, we have seen new players enter the open education space from commercial publishers to learning platform companies. The entrance of these new players into the space is part of a larger shift in the course materials market as technology has changed both access to knowledge and the way students learn. New actors are putting considerable pressure on institutions to purchase new platforms and suites of materials below market price that often contain OER. Some of these platforms for delivery are part of a larger model often called “inclusive access” or “digital discount” programs. These new models and products beg the question, “what is actually best for students?” Providing open educational resources to students without barriers is truly the best way to ensure students have access to the materials they need. How do we make smart decisions on content and content delivery with changing technology and new actors in the OER space? This session will outline existing and new players in the OER movement and discuss strategies for choosing content delivery models.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
