Students may not be prepared for distance learning if they lack intrinsic motivation, engagement with others, strong study skills, or time management. An accurate self-assessment of one's readiness can help students determine if they are prepared for distance learning challenges and focus on skills that need improvement. The SORT tool developed by the University System of Georgia quizzes students on six topics related to online learning success, such as technology experience, access to tools, study habits, lifestyle, goals, and learning preference.

Open Educational Resources Benefits and Challenges
A short slide deck summarizing the benefits and challenges of using open educational resources, with references to a few research studies.
OER benefits and challenges
Open Educational Resources (OER) provide several benefits for students and educators. OER are free textbooks and course materials that reduce costs for students and improve accessibility. They allow students to access materials anytime and can increase enrollment. Educators can customize OER for their courses and share materials with other instructors. However, OER also present challenges, such as the risk of content disappearing if not properly archived. Finding and creating OER can require significant time from educators. Intellectual property concerns may intimidate some instructors from using OER as well.
Pitch Presentation - Aide et Action Cambodia
The document discusses a proposed mobile app for Cambodian teachers called Cambodia's Teacher App. It notes that Cambodian teachers have inadequate training, lack knowledge of modern teaching methods, and have limited access to teaching resources and ICT knowledge. The app aims to address these issues by providing Cambodian teachers with a free digital library of teaching materials, training resources, and assistance through videos, audios and documents. It proposes developing the app, translating Khmer content into English, piloting the app with teachers, and providing teacher training via the app. The proposal requests developers to help build the app, organizations to contribute content, and donors to fund tablets for teachers.

Assistive technology
Assistive technology is an umbrella term that includes devices and services used by individuals with disabilities to perform functions that might otherwise be difficult or impossible. It includes things like braille embossers, keyboard filters, light signaler alerts, and reading programs for learning disabilities. The document emphasizes that teachers must provide assistive technology if needed, collaborate with others to create student-centered learning environments, and commit to lifelong learning to stay updated on new materials and assistive technologies to help their students.
ACJS -- Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Embedded Librarians Precipitating Cr...
The document discusses an interdisciplinary collaboration between librarians and criminal justice faculty to embed librarians in the classroom to help increase student research success. An embedded librarian program was implemented where librarians conducted in-class research instruction sessions. Results showed the success rate of students locating suitable research resources for assignments increased by 300% for in-person classes and 400% for online classes after the embedded librarian sessions. The collaboration benefits students through improved research skills, benefits faculty by increasing student success, and benefits librarians by allowing them to teach research skills in the classroom.
Open educational resources
Open Educational Resources (OER) provide free and open access to educational materials for students and instructors. Some key advantages of OER include giving worldwide access to learning, low distribution costs for courses and materials, and the ability to quickly update content. However, disadvantages include potential issues with the quality and accuracy of content since it can be posted by any user. Additionally, language barriers and technological issues may limit access for some students. Maintaining and updating OER also requires time from instructors and creators who are not compensated for their work.

READI WCET Presentation
This document discusses using learner readiness assessments to improve online student retention. It introduces the READI assessment tool, which evaluates students' readiness for online learning by assessing their technology skills, time management, communication style, and other factors. The READI helps identify students who may be at risk of dropping out so the institution can intervene with support services. It also provides insight into students' learning styles to help schools design effective online courses and student services. Western Wyoming Community College uses the READI prior to students starting online classes through a demo course and introductory discussions. The READI flags struggling students and helps dispel myths about online learning in order to improve retention rates.
Integrating IWBS Effectively In Schools
The document discusses common observations about the use of interactive whiteboards (IWBs) in various school settings and provides recommendations for successful IWB integration. Special schools effectively used IWBs across curriculums and saw reduced behavior problems. Primary schools struggled with technical support, positioning of boards, and lack of teacher training. Secondary schools had varying access to boards and support. Research shows IWBs increase engagement when used for more than visual learning as part of an embedded technology culture with leadership support. The key to success is a long-term elearning plan, professional learning, technical support, and focusing on pedagogy rather than just the tool.

This master's thesis explores students' ability to recognize and use pseudo-intransitive verbs in English sentences. Pseudo-intransitive verbs can be used as both transitive and intransitive verbs. The study aims to test if Serbian high school students who learned transitive and intransitive verbs in elementary school can identify pseudo-intransitive verbs. A survey was administered to third-year high school students to analyze their understanding of verb types and ability to use pseudo-intransitives. The results will indicate if pseudo-intransitives should be included in the English curriculum in Serbian schools.

O documento discute se a ficção científica ainda pode ser pensada em analogia com o realismo, conforme proposto por Thomas D. Clareson em 1971. Clareson argumenta que tanto o realismo literário quanto a ficção científica surgiram como respostas ao racionalismo moderno e à era da ciência, e que ambos buscavam representar a experiência individual. Após a Segunda Guerra Mundial, muitos textos de ficção científica passaram a retratar de forma negativa os possíveis efeitos da ciência.

Delivering RARPA: a college-wide digital approach
Speakers:
Matthew Bowler, service leader technology, Wiltshire College
Michelle Capes, online learning development officer, Wiltshire College
Simon Bowler, learning technologies and resources manager, Wiltshire College
Clive Carey, learning and skills development coach, Wiltshire College
Supporting all learners to progress and achieve is at the heart of what Wiltshire College do, and for those who support learners on non-accredited programmes with Recognising and Recording Progress and Achievement (RARPA), ensuring this is evidenced and monitored accurately is all the more important.
Tasked with developing a digital solution that learners could own, that was intuitive for support staff to manage and provided managers with instant access to insightful data, the Wiltshire College learning technologies team settled on an open source solution which is already delivering positive results since being been introduced across the college.
This session will demonstrate the Wiltshire College RARPA system from the perspective of each group of users; the students managing their own progress, the staff using the system to support their learners and the managers now with a college-wide visibility of progress. In addition the developers will also explain how all of this was achieved, and their ideas for the future.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.
