Content Cell-Store at College 1.0.0 (Don Bosco College, Yelagiri Hills)James Maria
As educational throng institutions, colleges are providing number of programs and increase of student and staff strengths, the need for learning increases (with more and more stale contents pushed to students that least support knowledge quest and relying on paper industries and logistics), excessive reliance on classroom talks/notes for latest knowledge update, that makes learning very high school-like in higher educational institutions. The gap between the ICT impact on culture and educational institutions is overt for the mainstream Higher Educational Institutions.
Students often find the education as job preparation, rather than identity, values and knowledge formation for research, innovation and social responsibilities. Establishing a local content cell and store in the college is a right direction to grow knowledgebase, learning content locally with support of external sources.
This would provide students decide on the content they choose to plan and learn. Serving learning activities using ICT and students availing it for responsible usage will make them accountable for what they consume, providing analytics for modeling knowledge content, learning behaviors and new fields of research in education for life with new job roles in campus. This proposal furnishes the need for content cell (production unit) and online content store in the college with features and recommends roadmap for actions, financial sustainability (low-scale infrastructural support and college/institution community sponsorship) and rationale for this initiative.
It could be less than Rs. 100,000 and 100 days project. Project result is: converting numerous centers at campus into single-cloud window: Content Cell-Store. i.e. Content Cell (office) Content Store (Online).

At the University of Notre Dame, we recently implemented a new website in concert with rolling out a “next generation” OPAC into production for our campus. While much of the pre-launch feedback was positive, once we implemented the new systems, we started receiving a small number of intense criticisms and a small wave of problem reports. This presentation covers how to plan for big technology changes, prepare your organizations, effectively manage the barrage of post implementation technical problems, and mitigate customer concerns and criticisms.

The International Standard Name Identifier, or ISNI, was created to identify the millions of contributors to creative works and those active in their distribution, including researchers, inventors, writers, artists, visual creators, performers, producers, publishers, aggregators, and more in order to resolve the problem of name ambiguity in search and discovery. Now, Laura Dawson, Product Manager of Identifier Services at Bowker, will show us how ISNI has developed since the standard was first published in 2012. How is it managed? Who receives numbers? What impact has it had on publishing? And how can it be incorporated into current metadata management and distribution?

The better your metadata, the better your sales: that's the simple truth. Books with complete metadata sell almost three times better than a book with incomplete metadata, so there's a very good reason to learn about how to format and transmit this information to your industry partners. But where to begin?
In this session, Graham Bell, Chief Data Architect at EDItEUR, will offer practical guidance on writing, formatting, and transmitting metadata in accordance with industry standards and best practices, and help to make your metadata work for you.
This is the third in a three-part series, co-produced by IBPA and hosted by BISG, aimed at demystifying several of the core book industry standards through "101"-style sessions presented by experts in the field.
ISBNs and Identifiers: Standards Basics for the Independent Publishing Commun...bisg
What are identifiers? What purpose do they serve in the book industry?
According to BISG's Best Practices for Identifying Digital Products, an identifier is generally a sequence of alpha-numeric characters that unambiguosly differentiates one thing from another in a particular context.
But while that answer may seem straightforward enough, the fact is there's a lot more to identifiers than one might think.
The book industry employs numerous identifiers for different reasons in its day-to-day operations. This webcast will cover identifiers basics—what they are, how they are developed, and how and why they are used. Special focus will be given to the venerable ISBN and its use in today's digital marketplace, and the difference between the ISBN and proprietary product identifiers.
In this session, Phil Madans, Executive Director Digital Publishing Technology for Hachette Book Group, will discuss how to correctly use identifiers to ensure your books reach the hands of happy readers.

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.

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.

Higher Education Market Opportunity
Spending on educational materials in higher education is estimated to be
$10.2billion with growth projected for the next five years. An AcademicPub
custom product/book is considered a legitimate alternative to the traditional
textbook providing a broader set of options for faculty and students.
Opportunity:
• A ‘captured’ high-value market: Students average $667 on materials per year
• Steadily rising textbook prices and enrollments: Drives revenue opportunity
• High materials costs legitimizes alternatives to traditional textbook
• Institutions are accepting responsibility for cost containment
• State & Federal government attention
• Large potential customer base: 4,937 institutions and 4,500 college stores
• Custom course materials currently up to 4% of store sales
– Growth faster than textbook revenue growth (8% vs. 1-2%)
– $27 average per student (for custom)
– $408Million current market opportunity in course packs
