Using Giving Games to Develop International and Intercultural Critical Thinki...CIEE
Giving games are learning experiences in which students are given a sum of money to donate to one or more charities. Students then research charities and make a collective decision to give based on the relative effectiveness of the various charitable options. Giving games impart valuable lessons about effective altruism, the use of empirical data in charity evaluation, and negotiation and compromise in a values-based setting. Using the panelists' own experiences, this session will introduce participants to giving game strategies and will focus on the possibilities and problems inherent in using giving games. A giving game will be a part of this session.
Exploring the Craft of the Educator: Reflections on the Winter 2016 IFDS in B...CIEE
During this session, panelists will share reflections on the outcomes of a winter CIEE International Faculty Development Seminar (IFDS) in Buenos Aires, the first IFDS to focus on the intersection of intercultural learning and language learning. While participants learned how to design activities to help language students learn and grow through intercultural experiences, the distinctive design of the seminar allowed participants to also focus on their own intercultural development and gain a deeper, more holistic understanding of the intercultural learning process. Participants of this session will learn how this IFDS accomplished its goals, as well as how three IFDS participants designed takeaways that are helping them to incorporate intercultural learning in the design of their own and their colleagues’ study abroad programs and their on-campus curricular and co-curricular programming.

The reality is there is no link between what you earn and how well you manage your money. That is good news for everybody. It simply means that regardless of our earning levels, we can all learn good money management habits and we can all aspire to a good level of financial security. Indeed, we can do more than just aspire; we can actually do something to achieve that financial security during our lifetimes.

In all societies there have always existed several elements that differentiate men from women regarding to behavior, attitudes, characters, and social or emotional roles. Sexism is a term that commonly denotes this separation of men and women’s roles in society, not only on their behavior, gestures and way of being, but also in the way both sides speak and the different terminologies, phrases or idiolects they use when speaking.

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.

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.

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.
