The document outlines goals and indicators for becoming an ActivClassroom teacher. It discusses using an ActivBoard interactively, presenting lessons in ActivInspire flipchart format, and offering students control of the ActivPen. It also addresses varying usage of ActivBoard features to keep students engaged, incorporating visual, auditory and kinesthetic elements, and providing formative assessment and feedback.

This paper presents ClipFlair, a web platform which provides captioning and revoicing tools and activities specifically designed for foreign language learning. It proposes a productive and motivating way of working with AV material: by asking learners to flair a clip, i.e. to revoice or caption a video.
The ClipFlair Studio (http://studio.clipflair.net) offers the captioning and revoicing tools needed by activity authors to create activities. This is also where learners can practise and learn their target language(s) by carrying out these activities. It is basically a zoomable area, containing the activity components: the clips, texts (e.g. instructions, clues or scripts), captions, voice-recordings, images and maps. Each component is editable for size, zoom and features to suit the pedagogical rationale of each activity, depending on each learner's level and needs. Users can collaborate, interact, share materials, provide feedback, watch tutorials and study guidelines for activity creation and evaluation through groups and forums at the ClipFlair Social Network (http://social.clipflair.net).
Reusable materials, including activities, clips, images and texts, are accessible through the ClipFlair Gallery (http://gallery.clipflair.net). Given the component-based nature of the ClipFlair Studio, the same material can be mixed differently for different activities. For example, the same clip may be exploited in different ways for different levels, or a given set of instructions can be used in various activities. Each item in the Gallery is accompanied by relevant metadata which facilitates searching and identifying materials.
Within the project’s scope, activities for 15 languages are being developed, but in the long term the project intends to expand the community regardless of language or level.

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.
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.

Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
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.

1. Are you on your way to becoming an ActivClassroom?<br />GoalsIndicatorsUse of Hardware and Software FORMCHECKBOX The teacher uses the ActivBoard in interactive ways (for more than a projector screen or traditional whiteboard, etc.) FORMCHECKBOX The teacher presents her lesson in flipchart format using ActivInspire software. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher is able to confidently select and manipulate different tools from ActivInspire’s Toolbar. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher frequently offers control of the ActivPen/ActivWand to students, and they are also able to use it to manipulate ActivInspire tools. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher’s lesson includes the use of ActivExpressions or another student response system to maximize student interaction.Lesson Design and Integration FORMCHECKBOX The teacher varies the usage of features of the ActivBoard to keep students motivated and/or present different content concepts. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher’s flipchart lesson is visually stimulating: students can easily focus on important text, images, and concepts. FORMCHECKBOX The flipchart lesson is truly multimedia: it includes web links, sounds, images, videos, and/or animation. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher uses the Web Browser and Annotate Over Desktop feature to access and interact with lesson content outside of the flipchart. FORMCHECKBOX All students are actively engaged and participating, either individually or in groups, in the lesson.Pedagogical Practices FORMCHECKBOX The teacher clearly communicates learning goals. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher incorporates visual, auditory, and kinesthetic components into the flipchart lesson in order to address all learning styles. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher has included opportunities for students to process information non-linguistically, as with graphic organizers, 2- and 3-D models, pictures, graphs/pictographs, etc. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher provides multiple opportunities for students to practice the skills, strategies, and processes they are learning at the ActiveBoard. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher includes formative assessment in the lesson and uses student response systems (such as ActivExpressions) to provide students with instant feedback and help identify errors in their thinking. FORMCHECKBOX The teacher recognizes and celebrates growth.<br />Feedback: ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<br />
