Patsie Polly 2014 - ePortfolio use for development of professional skills in ...ePortfolios Australia
Explicit alignment of course assessment with learning outcomes encourages students to evidence their learning and consider how assessment develops their professional skills beyond their study program. ePortfolios were used to address professional skills building and career preparedness for Medical Science undergraduates at UNSW Australia. Processes in Disease (2nd yr foundational) and Molecular Basis of Inflammation and Inflammation (3rd yr specialist) Pathology courses used Mahara ePortfolio in Moodle, linked to assessment tasks that build authentic written research communication skills: an annotated bibliography (2nd yr) and a research laboratory report (3rd yr). We measured changes seen upon student engagement with an ePortfolio using: a) two sets of marking criteria assessing the writing and associated co-curricular reflection tasks and b) skills and career ability surveys capturing improved student confidence, acquired skills and perceptions of themselves as professionals. Student reflective practice and professional skills in research thinking and writing were observed with ePortfolio use.
Checklists that can be used to review online courses formatively, during the design of an online course, or summatively, to do a formal course review after an online course has been designed. It can also be used after the delivery phase to inform revisions to improve online course quality.
Assignment 2: Fink Step 3
Due Week 7 and worth 200 points
For this assignment, you will look at the technology you have integrated into your unit/training and develop ways to assess student performance when they use those technologies.
Often, educators find a great new technology or app to use with their students but then have no idea how to evaluate if it is actually helping students learn. Or, educators find that grading student performance using the new technology is cumbersome and doesn’t actually save any time or provide any value.
For example, if students have an assignment to create a PowerPoint presentation, how will they submit it to you? How will you check to make sure they didn’t just copy it from someplace on the Internet? If students are working on a group project, how can you assess student contributions? These are some issues you will need to think about when you apply technology to your lessons.
First, provide a brief (1-2 pages) description of the specific education technology you intend to incorporate into your unit/training. Include links to the product or app and describe how the students will use it. You do not need to provide specific lesson plans, but need to demonstrate that you have a clear idea of what you want the students to use and how they will use it.
For example, if you were to start using MS Office in the classroom, you could describe how you would allow students to type their papers using MS Word and create presentations using MS PowerPoint instead of hand-writing papers and doing traditional poster projects.
Next, complete the questions for Step 3 of page 15 of Fink’s guide. Include the following information when you answer each question in the worksheet. You will have to copy each question to a new Word document in order to answer it.
1. Forward-looking Assessment: The key is that you have students work on real-world problems. Think about how they will apply the knowledge you are teaching as well as how they will use the technology in the future. How can you create assessments such as a class project, portfolio assignment, a case-study, or other activity where they apply their knowledge?
2. Criteria & Standards: Think about what qualifies as poor work that does not meet your standards, satisfactory work that does meet your standards, and excellent work that exceeds your standards. Be specific. Look at your assignment rubrics for examples of this.
3. Self-Assessment: Students should have some idea of how they are doing without having to ask the teacher or instructor. How will you help them evaluate their own work and learning as they work on their assignments?
4. “FIDeLity” Feedback: This will be the formal feedback that you will give to students as well as informal feedback you will give them as they work on their assignments and assessments.
It would be a good idea to use the information that you provided for the discussion questions in the following weeks. (Note: you are not expected to use all of it if ...

Importance of the Learning Agreement
Purpose of the Learning Agreement: The learning agreement is designed to ensure students are mindful about the learning expectations in their field placement. It was developed to help students and supervisors/instructors plan a well-rounded experience that will help students meet the learning objectives.
Learning Objectives: The Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) requires students gain competency in nine areas of social work practice. These areas of practice are defined as core competencies of the profession. Each core competency requires particular behaviors students should be able to engage and gain competency in. Students should provide examples of activities in the agency they can participate in to help them meet the learning objectives. Some examples of activities are provided. This is not an exhaustive list, so others can be added. Students must have an opportunity to complete tasks in all nine areas of competency.
Connection to the Student Evaluation: Not only is the learning agreement a helpful tool to plan the learning goals for the term, but it connects directly to the evaluation points in the student evaluation. Field Instructors/supervisors will be asked to complete student evaluations. Each student is evaluated on the nine core competencies of social work. Having a solid learning agreement aligns the learning goals with the student’s evaluation, so no areas are missed.
Instructions
Negotiating the Agreement: The learning agreement should be completed by week 3 at the agency. This is a collaborative process, where the field instructor/supervisor and student meet to establish goals for the term. The student will then submit the agreement to the faculty liaison for feedback and comments. Once everyone is happy with the agreement, all parties sign the agreement. During the evaluation session, toward the end of the quarter, the student and instructor/supervisor should meet to discuss progress and challenges with the plan and develop ways to adjust the learning for the remainder of the placement and the next quarter.
Form Layout:
Each page/grid is devoted to one of the nine Social Work Core Competencies. Students must have experience in all nine competencies.
Section Descriptions:
Expected Behaviors – the expected behaviors are those that are identified based on the concentration area. These behaviors should be demonstrated by students during the term of the field placement/internship.
Agency Activities-These are examples of particular activities that students can do at the agency to demonstrate the expected behaviors. Most of these are general to all settings. However, if they don’t quite match, feel free to add/change these to fit with the context of your agency. Check all activities that apply.

Think | Make | Learn
When we see the world as malleable, we are more willing to accept that we can shape that world, and our place within it. Making is not a new thing. We have been making, building, designing, and constructing, since we first came into existence. It is part of what defines us as human. It only makes sense that it should play an important role in how we choose to learn - and how we choose to view our world around us.

Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.

Course Graduate Attribute:
Curious
Pushing myself to ask more questions
on the topics that interest me and
asking to see new things. Every bit of
experience whether good or bad is
good to have under my belt as it
gives me more of an understanding
of what I want to do when I leave
university and where I would want to
go.
I’ve been asking my managers to show
me new things that aren’t specifically
to do with Chemistry. I’ve been getting
involved with NDT, mechanical testing
and metallurgy.
I’ve even for a DILO event planned to
go and spend a day in the design
department
Having a wide spread of options

independently carry out the
analytical procedures done in the lab
on a weekly basis so I will feel like I
am contributing to the team as much
as everyone else is when doing the
weekly analysis.
I have my co-workers leaving me alone
to do the analysis and trusting the
results I get. Also asking me to run
certain analysis if they are too busy,
showing me that they trust me enough
to complete the required task.
It relates to project work in the lab
by making me more confident in
my own abilities to perform tasks
as safely and independently as I
can, so when it comes to going
back to the lab at university and
doing a 6 weeks lab project, I can
carry it out with ease.
Ongoing
Projects:
1) Standardisation of the
chemicals
2) Overrun and recipe
investigation
3) Rewrite of lab
instruction
Benefit to the company: These
investigations will be left to the
lab for their use along with my
typed-up lab instructions for
project 1.
I want to have an impact on the
department (and the company as a
whole) in a positive way that will
help out all of my colleagues and
newcomers in the lab.
If any of my work whether being
independent or supported work is of
any help then I’d consider it a
successful task
When my colleagues refer to my work
or ask me about any certain topics I am
working on.
By my colleagues referring to my work
or asking me about it I will know that
my projects are contributing to the
department like everyone else’s work.
University projects and post
project work like lab reports,
procedures and reviews. Having
this 13-month experience writing
real-life reports and procedures
has allowed me to have a better
understanding of what it needs to
include. Therefore, this will be a
benefit to myself in my final year
research project.

Getting a better understanding
of software on different
instruments, (IC, ICP, OMNIS,
FTIR)
In order for all of us to get a better
understanding of how the software
on the IC and FTIR, a workshop
session was made where
ThermoFischer came in and taught us
the basics of how to operate the
software. I gave myself the task of
making notes in these sessions and
then typing them up in our own
version of a “How to Guide”. I
created this “How to Guide” in our
google drive and shared it with
everyone else so if they needed to
perform a certain task and forgot
how to do it then they could refer to
that guide for help.
Some of the sections in the “How to
Guides” were difficult to write as I
didn’t have the best understanding of
both machines compared to everyone
else’s understanding. Nevertheless, I
did my own research to help my
understanding and looked through
other people’s notes as I may have
missed anything that was said. I then
managed to finish the How to Guide for
the FTIR and IC.
I feel it would have benefitted
myself (especially writing the How
to Guide) by not being embarrassed
or afraid to ask the tutor who came
in anything I didn’t quite
understand.

Learning better ways to carry

By observing different peoples’ ways

and my time management. As a
result I have managed to prep for

Get a better understanding of
how chemistry works in the
industry – more specifically
how it ties in with building a
wing of a plane.
As we deal with a lot, if not all, the
analysis of the wings, I wanted to
understand more about the inner
workings and how it is assembled to
form a complete wing. Having
projects that are heavily involved
with the creation of the wing made it
easier to try and understand but also
showed great challenges as I felt I
was lacking in the required
knowledge unlike my co-workers. I
gave myself an action to try really
hard to focus on what people are
saying and ask when I am lost and
don’t understand what has been said
or done. Thankfully, the people hear
at Airbus are more than happy to
show and tell their knowledge on
what is going on to help me grasp an
idea of what they’re saying.
A big challenged I faced when trying to
learn and engage more about the wing
was to learn all the abbreviated
phrases. It was quite heard to get my
head around what all of them meant
and what they are related to but my
company had a handy website called
lexinet where I could type in the
abbreviation to find out what possible
meanings it could have. After time the
abbreviations became more natural to
hear and say in my everyday
vocabulary.

reading on any topic I come across
that I don’t understand and don’t

When putting analysis onto the
machines on a Monday morning
sometimes it might not go as planned
and we need to re run some analysis
or check the machine for anything
that may be causing the issue.
A lot of the time it can be down to
loose wires or cables stopping
aspiration and dosing of samples or
something just not entered correctly
like a position number on a sample
tray. It is our job then to find what
the issue is and then fix it which can
be anything from screwing the cable
in properly or placing the sample into
the correct position on the sample
tray. Fixing the issue and getting
better results on the next re run of
the analysis
A lot of the time an issue can arise on
an instrument that you haven’t set off
for the analysis yourself, which can
either go for you or against you. You
can either find the problem straight
away or have to look harder.
Sometimes I have managed to set off
the machine without any issue and
sometimes I haven’t set it off right and
the results for the analysis have been
wrong. I have had colleagues tell me
where I have gone wrong and I have
corrected it when running the analysis
again in the future.

situation thinking if I have

Attribute: Confidence
Being put into a relatively large office
environment I made it my goal to get to know
everyone and make sure they’re comfortable
with me and I am able to talk to them
confidently about any of the analysis I am
unsure about. By making sure I wasn’t afraid
to ask people for help I am now fully capable
of performing tasks I didn’t know before and
still ask for help on ones I am beginning to
learn.
I feel already only 4/5 months in I can
speak to everyone in the department
and they can speak to me and ask me
questions about any work I have going
on.
I can also grab any one of my
colleagues to discuss anything I need
help with or if something hasn’t gone
to plan when running any of the
analysis.

work that I may not fully know
how to carry out the process but

University Graduate
Attribute: Creativity
Working in an environment such as airbus, my
creative mind was put to the test. I managed
on several occasions to think outside of the
box on project work I was either leading or
supporting on. For example, on my project for
the standardisation of the chemicals in the lab
I was able to avoid having to buy a new
titration electrode for a method and instead
researching and coming up with a new
primary standard that suits the titre being
used and the electrode we currently have.
I found it quite a challenge trying to
figure out what the alternatives could
be as I had gained some sort of tunnel
vision on the project at hand and
needed to break away from that trend
to find a new way to solve the
problem.
Having these issues appear made it
gradually easier to think outside of the
box and since having said issues I have
been able to ask from my colleagues’
things they liked and disliked about
that certain situation and what I could
do better next time
To develop in this area, I believe I
need to reject the tunnel vision
ideology when dealing with a
project and at each step think
about what each outcome could
be making sure I have back up
options and different paths to go
down.

any chemicals that are out of date to prevent

I was sorting through 1 cupboard in particular
and came across acetone wipes in the same
cupboard as compressed air. Even though
there may not be an immediate danger or
hazard spotted with it, there could have been
one. I, along with other chemists, moved the
wipes to the flammable cupboard. This did not
go down well with one individual in the lab.
This incident let to me receiving verbal abuse
to the point of making me very upset. Trying
to keep a professional manner about myself I
decided to leave the room and go somewhere
else to calm myself down. My colleague who
witnessed what had happened found me and
comforted me. She got my manager and told
her what had happened and we managed to
sit down and sort it out. I decided I didn’t want
an apology from this individual and instead

Standardising Chemicals
used in the lab
I was given the task to try and standardise
all the chemicals we use in the lab
(chemistry lab, not the metallurgy lab). To
do this I needed to work on the
automated titrator system as most of the
chemicals we use are on there for most of
the analysis done on the surface
treatment tanks. I needed to make
A major challenge was trying to figure
of how to write the methods and
operating procedures as I have had no
previous training on the machine so a
lot of the time I was just trying to work
out via trial and error on what worked
and where to go from there.
It was only until the end of the
projects on my final titre I realise
that I didn’t have to use the
primary standard that was
specified in the spec. In future I
would look at trying to save the
company money and look at

methods for each of the 5 titres that are
on the system and then proceed to write
individual operating procedure that
include the method for each titre. Along
with writing the method and procedure I
needed to find out which primary
standards I needed to use and what the
quantity I needed. From there I also
needed to write and insert the equation
to work out the volume, Moles and
Molarity of each titre.
I was able to contact the supplier’s
technical team for support on anything
I was really stuck on but mainly

specifically ones that we would
already have in stock. Another
benefit of this would be saving
more time, since waiting for the
chemicals took around 4 months
due to a shortage and high
demand for them.
Contribute to the work in
the lab (E.g., Investigations,
routine lab jobs in
chemistry and metallurgy)
Starting off in the lab I had only ever
learned theory on majority of the
machines I have dealt with over the past
13 months, so it was quite daunting and,
in some aspects, overwhelming as in
some ways it felt as if I was expected to
know exactly what each machine did and
how it worked. I gave myself the task to
take the time to learn how these
machines worked to then be able to
operate them with full confidence on my
own and perform the weekly analysis
along with project analysis if I was
required to. Within the first 6 months of
my placement, I was already feeling very
confident operating on the machines as I
had completed most if not all my task
capture sheets the company wanted me
to complete before carrying out tasks on
my own. Now coming to the end of my
placement I have full confidence in myself
to carry out the required tasks we receive
daily, weekly and monthly.
A big challenge of mine was dealing
with the very expensive and dangerous
machines as I didn’t want to break
them or hurt myself trying to operate
them.
Thankfully, I had no injuries and didn’t
break any of the machines or any
accessories
Pushing myself that little bit more
to be able to learn all the
machines quicker so I can get stuck
into any projects going on or any
future projects that would be
using any of those machines.

3. Summary of overall performance & achievements - feedforward and action planning
This will form the basis of my final placement keep-in-touch- review with my employer(s) and Academic Placement Adviser (APA). In order to consolidate my learning and
development I will outline the feedback I have received from my employer(s). I will reflect on what I have done while on placement and consider how this relates to and
support the learning on my course. This reflection will then be used as a basis for the completion of relevant sections of my PSP3 e-portfolio.
3. a. Employer(s) Feedforward: This section is for my placement manager/mentor(s) to provide me with feedback on my overall performance and achievement of my goals.
Where possible this should celebrate my successes and provide me with some specific areas of improvement to support future development towards graduation and
beyond. This can be written by my placement manager/mentor(s) or I can input feedback gathered from my placement colleagues or through other means e.g., appraisal.
I will then use these points in development of my Action Plan.
During the first 6 months of Molly’s placement here in Broughton, I was her line manager, from the beginning of Molly’s placement she has shown great interest in the
tasks within the Laboratory, despite joining the team to predominantly focus her internship on Chemistry and gain an understanding of the scope our Chemists endure
here, she was very interested in expanding her knowledge and was keen to understand the role of our Metallurgists, with this in mind, Molly took on board a project to
support her university asks as well as an extensive amount of learning and support to the team.
Without doubt Molly integrated into the team immediately, she has always shown dedication to her role and support to the team and I feel the team have treated her
like one of the team. I personally have been very impressed with Molly’s approach and dedication to her internship so far.
I feel the areas of development for Molly, build confidence - I hope this has grown since January as you’ve become more comfortable with the role, but don’t hesitate to
be involved in the topics outside of the lab (i.e., engage with operations more), speak up more - where you have an issue/request/concern/ success always look to speak
up and be heard. Build networks - Airbus is a perfect place to build networks ensure you get the best out of your placement and get to know people outside of the Lab
team (engage with the wider quality team).
- Kassandra Carr – Previous HO of the Materials Laboratory
I had the pleasure to work with Molly during her internship placement in the Materials Laboratory in Airbus Broughton. She was very organized and grasped our system
very quickly. Despite Chemistry being her area of expertise, she managed her time well enough to engage with other areas of the Laboratory, non as familiar to her, such
as material forensics and mechanical testing. Molly has shown good initiative and has been eager to learn and take new challenges, completing all tasks she has been given
in a very professional manner.
If Molly keeps the good ethics and proactivity she has shown during her placement, I am confident enough that she will succeed in whatever ventures she embarks on.
However, it will be a tremendous pleasure to work with her in the future if she considers the Materials Laboratory in Airbus Broughton when she finishes her degree.

Molly has worked extremely hard during her internship with Airbus. She has shown interest in and undertaken investigations in a number of disciplines within the
Materials Laboratory including chemistry, metallurgy and mechanical testing. Whilst undertaking investigations Molly has shown herself to be proactive and able to take
the initiative - skills highly useful in the manufacturing environment.
- Sally Jenkins – Laboratory Operational Specialist
Molly has been a highly valued member of the Airbus Laboratory team. From the off Molly was keen to get involved in as many different projects and work streams in
order to gain as much experience and knowledge from the team. During her team at Airbus, Molly has completed projects within Chemistry, Metallurgy and Mechanical
Testing.
Molly has also been involved in projects outside of the Laboratory department and has widened her network within the Airbus Broughton community including
Women’s Day, Quality Day and STEM talks to primary and secondary schools.

My placement evaluation: Given the skills, knowledge, attributes and workplace specific awareness I have learned and engaged with during my placement here is a
summary of the key learning I have gained during my placement. I have reflected on key successes of my placement year, and also issues that have arisen, and how I have
addressed these.
Over the 13 months experience I have received at Airbus I have gained the key skills and knowledge needed to work in an industrial material laboratory.
These skills include; Time management, practical organization when running experiments on multiple machines, People and Networking skills. Amongst
reflection upon these skills, I believe I have been relatively successful in incorporating them in my day-to-day life here at Airbus and also using them in
external environments such as social gatherings with work colleagues.
Other successes I have encountered include my projects I carried out within my department setting up the Standardisation of the chemicals in the chemistry
lab along with creating various how-to-guides and procedures for people on pieces of equipment we have or any software update we had installed.
Along with the successes, there have been times issues have risen and I have had to deal with them in a professional manner and keep my composure as a
mature, responsible adult. Fortunately, there wasn’t many issues that I had to deal with that caused me or anyone a problem but when they did occur, I
simply dealt with it by taking myself out of the situation and removing myself from the room or setting to be able to clear my thoughts and come to a
sensible conclusion on what I needed to do to resolve the issue.

Where I have had an
issue/request/concern/success, I
need to always look to speak up
and be heard.
Take initiative in situations I believe
I can excel at. Speaking my mind
more openly to others about any
ideas or concerns I have with any
projects or any general tasks at
hand
I could face creating a hostile
environment and negative
feedback from people with
different views and ideas which
could possibly affect my future
career at the company
People within my department
would be a big benefit to me as they
will give me the courage to speak
out more to people outside my
department and share my thoughts
and views.

wider impact my work and others
are having on the world my
company deals with externally and
what external circumstances will
have an impact on my company

Not knowing the key challenges of
what the company will face could
have an impact on my career
climbing up the ladder and
understanding the wider and bigger
issues we face, possibly making it
harder to deal with customers and
suppliers.
In order to carry out this goal I
would need to keep myself
