Many M.Ed. programs claim to incorporate signature pedagogies in their programs, which often include approaches such as inquiry-based, case-based, and problem-based learning, communities of learners, and more.
Teacher education is unique among disciplines in that we are doing what we are teaching. Metateaching has been defined as thinking about teaching (Timpson 1999), but if metacognition is thinking about thinking, and a meta-language is a language about languages, then metateaching is in fact teaching about teaching. If we combine this with notions of signature pedagogies and the idea that we should be modeling what we are teaching, then what does this mean at the graduate level?
It means that graduate instructors should themselves be modeling what they are teaching. Wouldn’t signature pedagogy in education be one that actually implements the theories and models being studied in order to teach those same theories and models? Shouldn’t it be one that employs experimental designs and invites the students (most of who are teachers) to examine the course design as it’s being taught? Wouldn’t it make sense to have the students have input into the design and/or teaching?
This presentation will examine the common approach to teaching graduate level education courses - the seminar - and suggest an alternate approach that uses the theories and models being taught and where the teaching methodology matches the kind of work the participants will do when they graduate.

EFFECTIVENESS OF INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN MODEL (ISMAN - 2011) IN DEVELOPING THE...Hisham Hussein
The new instructional design model (Isman - 2011) aims at planing, developing, implementing, evaluating, and
organizing full learning activities effectively to ensure competent performance by students. The theoretical
foundation of this model comes from behaviorism, cognitivism and constructivism views. And it’s based on
active learning. During teaching and learning activities, learner is active and uses cognitive learning to construct
new knowledge. To construct new knowledge, educational technology materials are used. These materials are
connected with goals and objectives. This study examines the effectiveness of the instructional design model
(Isman - 2011) in developing the students teaching skills (Planning Teaching Domain) by redesign “General
teaching methods course – curr 233-“, which taught to the sixth level students at teachers' college, King Saud
University. The sample of the study consisted of 80 students that enrolled in the second semester 2010/2011,
they were divided into two groups of 40 students each, (an experimental group and a control group). The result
comes by administered pre- post teaching skills test to find out the model has strong effectiveness in achieving
the research aims especially in developing the student teaching skills.

Instructional Strategies: Indirect Instruction in your lessonsCaryn Chang
As there are many categories of instructional strategies, this e-book focuses on indirect instruction. Indirect instruction is mainly student- centred and emphasizes on allowing students to get involved throughout a lesson by observing thus seeking their own meaning of the lesson.
In this e-book, the methods of indirect instruction that can be used in class will be discussed and explored.
Incept Education has developed the Education Leadership Dialogue, a model that provides exciting 2 day intensive programs for professional learning and futuring processes. It is built on the understanding that education leadership needs to be visible and purposeful across all school and university contexts and that effective learning leadership necessarily involves personnel from across all education roles within institutions.
Computer Science is an interesting subject which helps students to develop their problem solving and computational thinking skills. The problem solving and algorithmic nature of computer science also promotes students’ creativity and innovation. However, teaching of computer science is different from other science subjects and requires special pedagogical skills. This presentation covers these aspects.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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

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.
2. Background
This presentation will address chapter seven including the ways an instructional
designer identifies how instruction engages learners. Instructional strategy is
essentially made up of a lot of microstrategies which are bonded together in the overall
macrostratgey that must take learners from a motivational introduction into a topic, and
then through learners’ mastery of the objectives.
Sets of instructional materials that are well-designed contain many of the
strategies or procedures that a good teacher might typically use within the group of
learners. Educational psychologists have done a lot of research to see and understand
how people learn. They have identified several major components in the learning
process that typically always lead to learning, a few of these components include:
motivation, prerequisite and subordinate skills, and practice and feedback.
3. Objectives
‣ Name the five learning components of an instructional strategy and list the primary
considerations within each.
‣ Plan the learning components of an instructional strategy for a set of objectives for
a particular group of learners.
‣ Specify learning components congruent with learners’ maturity and ability levels.
‣ Tailor learning comments for the type of learning outcome.
4. Learning Components of Instructional Strategies
๏ The concept of instructional strategy originated with the
events of instruction which is described in R.M. Gagne’s
conditions of learning. (1985)
๏ Gagne says nine events that support internal mental process
learning.
1. Gaining attention
2. Informing learner of objective
3. Stimulating recall of prerequisite learning
4. Presenting the stimulus material
5. Providing learning guidance
6. Eliciting the performance
7. Providing feedback about performance correctness
8. Assessing the performance
9. Enhancing retention and transfer
5. Pre-instructional Activities
Before any instruction had been done or introduced, consider
three factors:
1. Motivating learners
2. Informing them of what they will learn
3. stimulating recall of relevant knowledge and skills that
they should already know
John Keller developed the ARCS model based on his studies of
the psychological literature on motivation.
He says there are four parts to his model: Attention, relevance,
confidence, and satisfaction.
All these separate have little impact on a learner, however, when
you combine them all together in the ARCS model strategy, the
chances of keeping your learners interest increases drastically.
7. Content Presentation and Learning Guidance
Content presentation is always interwoven with learning
guidance meaning the content must be formatted in such a way
that it allows us to understand it and remember it for the future.
A textbook or powerpoint presentation is a prime example of how
we use formatting to help us learn in the simplest way possible,
with the layout. The layout obviously being: headings,
subheadings, paragraph headings. Getting more specific and
more specific the more down the line you go.
8. Assessment & Follow Through Activities
You must decide exactly what your strategy as a designer will be
for assessing what learners have accomplished using one of the
four basic criterion from the last chapter (entry skills test,
pretests, practice tests, and posttests).
Make sure your assessments clearly asses your learners and
answer the questions that need to be answered for the learner to
retain information.
Review the entire strategy to determine whether the learners
memory transferred over and was a success or it needs to be
addressed.
9. Learning Components for Learners of Different
Maturity and Ability Levels
Depending on the level of the learner, the material presented may
differ significantly. For example, in a third grade math class
learning division, all the information and components to the
problem should be presented to its entirety.
On the contrast, if you are going on your third year in
medical school, the information given will be very specific and
direct examples and practice. The information and learning curve
should always be tailored to the learner and his/her level of
education.
More independent and highly autonomous learners are able
to go through a low structure level with little interaction with the
instructor. While a less autonomous learner who has now
“learned how to learn” needs a lot more instructor involvement
with a rigid course of structure.
10. Learning Components for Various Learning Outcomes
Each of the five learning components should be considered when
designing instruction for intellectual skills:
1. Preinstructional Activities
Motivation for activity: attention, relevance, confidence, and
satisfaction. Learner objectives made clear. Linking new
content.
2. Content Presentation and Learning Guidance
Know distinguishing characteristics of concepts. Organizing
structures (outlines, headings, graphics, etc.) Create new
ways of organizing existing skills. Point out common errors.
3. Learner Participation
Make sure everything is in one accord from practice to
conditions and behaviors. Progress difficulty from less to
more. Feedback balanced positive and negative.
11. Learning Components for Various Learning Outcomes
(Continued)
4. Assessment
Make sure learners’ are ready for testing. Apply correct
criteria for natural skills, age and ability.
5. Follow-Through
Promote transfer of knowledge. Consider memory
requirements and job aid requirements. Reflect on learning
experience and future applications.
14. Learning Components for Constructivist Strategies
Constructivism has roots in cognitive psychology and has two
branches:
1. Cognitive constructivism
2. Social constructivism
Social constructivism was developed from a Russian
psychologist Lev Vygotsky in the beginning of the 20th century.
Social constructivism is simply referred to as constructivism and
this thinking has become a main feature of the instructional
design literature and new literature of design research and
learning sciences.
Constructivists make the case that students need minimal
guidance during learning as apposed to cognitive psychologists
viewpoint which infers that students need fully guided instruction.
15. Theoretical Considerations
Although the differences between cognitive ID processes and
constructivist ideology simply seem like, minimal guidance
versus full guided instruction, it is a lot more complex than that.
That is why the ideal approach is to consider Constructivist
Learning Environments (CLEs) into cognitive processes like the
Dick and Carey Design Model, and blend the learning together to
come out with the most efficient way for learners to consume
and engrain the new content and information in the individuals
mind.
This all comes back to the ability level and maturity level of the
learner, it must correspond to the individual for the necessary
amount of guidance and CLEs.
17. Goals and Skills
Attitudinal goals are essential to the instructional design and
strategy working and being successful overall. The information in
the strategy does not directly relate to developing the skill
necessarily, but instead, developing the desire to want to do that
particular skill that is being tested.
It is all related to recruitment, encouragement, confidence
building, camaraderie, and the opportunity to participate.
Verbal information subordinate skills unlike attitudinal skills, the
strategy is directly related to learning the verbal information
required to perform the intellectual skill it supports.
In the actual instruction of a skill, the verbal information would be
combined with the intellectual skills
18. Intellectual and Motor Skills
The intellectual strategy is to get the learners to actually
understand the factors that influence the accuracy of your
objective and make a plan that is related.
For motor skills, it is critical that learners are confident they can
perform the skill, have seen the skill performed, and have a good
amount of opportunities to practice with appropriate feedback.
19. Reflective Practitioner Response
This chapter addresses the ways an instructional designer
identifies how instruction engages learners and the planning of
the instructional strategy. It is important that we identify not only
how instruction engages the majority of people but even more
specifically how each individual learns and accepts the
instruction. Determining what type of abilities they have and the
maturity level they are currently at, the instructor must customize
all the instruction and tailor it to the individual.
This also is the case between the constructivist versus the
cognitive ID processes. Using more guidance in instruction for
the cognitive ID process for someone that has low ability and
maturity levels. Constructivist for low guidance and more
advanced learners, but all depending on the learner. It is the most
beneficial when you have a good amount of both combined in a
proportionate manor than is advantageous to the learner and
tailored specifically to that individual person.
