This paper was presented within 16th ICSQCC in Lucknow, ındia on 28th November 2013:
Total quality (TQ) is a passion and a way of life for those organizations that live its message. The problem is how to generate the passion and the pride required to create quality in education. The significance of leadership for undertaking the transformation to TQ should not be underestimated. A key aspect of the leadership role in education is to train and empower teachers to give them the maximum opportunity to improve the learning of their students. Technology and innovative ideas are the other important tools for them.
Not only in Turkey, but in many countries “training innovative minds through quality in education and technology use” has gained importance recently. Many educators and educational leaders are trying to find out the meaning of “quality” in education through the further technological innovations. This tendency seems to be changing the educational paradigm with respect to the Internet technologies. Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are getting very popular especially in American and European universities. Through some well-known IT companies teachers are trying new ways instead of the traditional ones. Experts think that the Internet and some other innovative ideas might be significant for the national systems of education as they may become the basis for the emerging global education system.
In this paper, the author is going to share her experiences she gained during her participation to the Sixth Conference of MIT’s Learning International Networks Consortium on June 16th-19th, 2013 at MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.
Innovative Teaching in Higher Education: Big Data EraMiftachul Huda
With massive amounts of data created every second across the internet, the concept of big data would give opportunities with the ability to explore data and understand in maximizing the potential of data collection in relation to innovative teaching in an online learning setting. This is to support teachers’ pedagogical skills, mainly in the big data era from multiple sources in maintaining a competitive advantage to give a feedback on innovative teaching performance. This article aims to critically investigate innovative teaching competencies of teachers in the light of big data approach. Critical review using content analysis from both the theoretical and the empirical base was conducted to explore the big data for supporting innovative teaching. This result shows innovative teaching performance with an insightful result to contribute these competencies towards the theories and models of educational innovation into the pedagogical element.

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.

– RQ2:
How
do

evaluate
the

of

6. • RQ1:
How
do
states
evaluate
the
quality
of
online
learning
courses?
• States
typically
focus
either
at
course
or
provider
level
• Some
do
both
(GA,
for
example)
• 11
states
evaluate
course
quality
• MD’s

7. • RQ2:

do

evaluate
the

of

• 24
states
require
iniKal
approval
of
F-‐T
providers;
approval
process
ranges
from
simple
to
complex
• 33
states
require
iniKal
approval
of
F-‐T
programs
(usually
as
charters)

GA
Findings
8. • RQ3:
How
do
states
ensure
the
quality
of
online
learning
programs
on
an
on-‐going
basis?
• All
states
that
permit
F-‐T
online
public
schools
require
them
to
report
like
other
public
schools
• At
least
5
states
require
ongoing
addiKonal
reporKng
or
audits,
beyond
standard
reporKng
• Examples:
AZ,
MI
• One
state
(CO)
recently
removed
ongoing
evaluaKon,
now
only
has
iniKal
approval
Findings
9. • Con&nue
input-‐focused
evalua&on
and
approval
processes
for
F-‐T
online
schools
– Seek
to
ensure
they
meet
basic
quality
standards
during
development
&
startup
– Consider
eliminaKon
of
input
processes
not
supported
by
research
or
evidence
of
student
impact
Recommenda&ons
10. • Adopt
processes
across
states
for
evidence-‐based
third
party
external
valida&on
of
K-‐12
online
courses
and
program
quality
– Work
in
collaboraKon
with
professional
associaKons,
associaKons
of
states,
online
learning
providers,
and
post-‐secondary
insKtuKons
Recommenda&ons
11. • Adopt
a
student
growth
model
for
K-‐12
student
performance
data
analysis
– Provide
public
online
access
to
comparaKve
analyses
of
data
– Facilitate
comparison
of
F-‐T
online,
blended,
and
tradiKonal
school
results
Recommenda&ons
12. • Consider
adop&ng
an
intensive
state
review
process
for
F-‐T
online
schools
– A@er
two
years
of
operaKon
or
on
a
periodic
basis
as
funding
permits
– WA:
good
P-‐T
vs.
F-‐T
differenKal
review
model
– BC
(Canada):
good
external
audit
model
Recommenda&ons
13. • Define
blended
schools
with
a
significant
online
learning
component,
and
track
their
results
– For
example,
define
blended
as
30%-‐80%
of
instrucKonal
Kme
online
– Track
results
separately
from
F-‐T
online
(over
80%)
– Track
separately
from
supplemental
use
in
tradiKonal
schools
(under
30%
online)
Recommenda&ons
14. • Collaborate
ac&vely
with
educa&onal
researchers
to
help
build
the
evidence
base
for
what
works
in
K-‐12
online
and
blended
learning
