“Opening Up the Ivory Tower” Kaleidoscope Conference 29 – 30 May, 2014 Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge. UK
Teaching and learning at universities has moved beyond traditional transfer of knowledge from the learned to the learning. In today’s rapidly evolving world, educators at higher education institutions are challenged with preparing students to succeed in jobs that don’t even exist today, in a world in which creativity and innovation are valued as much as knowledge.
What does it take to do this? What are the latest trends in teaching and learning at higher education institutions? Are they keeping up with the transformations taking place beyond campus boundaries? What are the strategies for broader adoption of effective teaching and learning practices across campus?
UCalgary's Vice-Provost of Teaching and Learning (Interim) Leslie Reid and Jay Cross, Director of the new College of Discovery, Creativity and Innovation in UCalgary's Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning, provide their expert knowledge on these and other related questions.

Open pedagogy: making learning visible through live, reflective, and co-creat...Michael Paskevicius
VIU’s take on open pedagogy centres around the making of learning visible through community engagement and the design of authentic and lived learning experiences, including non-disposable assignments. This isn’t about using open textbooks or open educational resources (however it may be a side effect) but rather about making the entire learning experience live, unedited and unfolding in the moment following many of the attributes of Hegarty’s (2015) model for open pedagogy (learner generated, peer review, participatory technology, innovation and creativity, sharing, reflection, trust and a connected community). We have a number of faculty applying open pedagogy components in their classes and we’ll share some examples. We also are building a course redesign institute around this impactful learning practice. This session will explore the evolving components of open pedagogy and how it might manifest for optimal student learning. Participants will engage in a mini-version of our course redesign model and uncover the key attributes of open pedagogy. Come explore visible learning with us!

Exploring the use of Twitter, Snapchat and LinkedIn for learning and teaching...Deborah Baff
Abstract
Mobile technologies have become embedded into our everyday life with individuals depending on such tools to engage, communicate and complete tasks. However, technologies have also become ingrained into the Higher Education environment as they support and stimulate innovative ways of learning and teaching. The use of social media such as Twitter, Snapchat, LinkedIn and Flipgrid are just a few examples of the possible social media tools to develop and enhance teaching and or research experiences as well as professional skills. The efficacy of using social media in Higher Education requires investigation to explore the way in which staff and students communicate on these platforms. Staff-student partnerships is evolving and becoming an effective method for staff and students to share knowledge and practices; an example and opportunity to develop new approaches using social media to enhance learning and teaching.
The proposed interactive workshop seeks to engage the delegates (staff and students) to understand their professional use of different types of social media, and how we can optimise the use of the available tools; drawing on examples to reflect on our own learning, teaching and sharing practices in our local institutions. Using Lego® Serious Play® , the participatory workshop aims to actively engage with participants to explore ways in which they have used social media for learning and teaching.
Subsequently, outputs derived from the discussions will be collated onto an infographic poster, which will be made widely available for the Higher Education community to share both pedagogy and practice in relation to social media for learning. It is hoped this will also stimulate discussions around our thinking when conducting and or participating in our own learning through staff-student partnerships.

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
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.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Key points from me - fun, friends, and the 5 C’s . . . although hard work and slightly chaotic feels like an important community meeting point now. Over the years have organised various internal events to run along with the main event, can be challenging due to timing - lots of marking in January for my colleagues. However it does brighten up the winter and also I feel it is a really important open community and touch point for many
