This document discusses licensing challenges with Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and proposes a solution from the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC). It begins with context on the growth of higher education and MOOCs. MOOCs have low completion rates and unclear business models. CCC's solution would allow course instructors to link to required readings on a content partner's website. Enrolled students could then order and pay for materials through the partner. The partner would invoice CCC, who would distribute royalties to rightsholders while providing reporting. This scalable solution addresses issues like fluctuating enrollment and ensures copyright compliance for MOOC content.Creative thinking: building Research Support Services from the ground up at M...

Higher education And Diversity, Maurice Crul
This document discusses diversity in higher education in Amsterdam. It notes that many refugees already hold bachelor's or master's degrees and should be treated as international students who can enter English master's programs. It also mentions that orthodox Islamic student organizations and native Dutch students with racist or Islamophobic views have both become more polarized on campuses. The document then presents data showing lower completion rates for migrant versus non-migrant students at universities and universities of applied sciences in Amsterdam. It outlines an approach by Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam to form a taskforce to address these issues through collecting student data, implementing interventions around student support, staff training, and conducting research to develop evidence-based solutions.

Human and social factors in transport
Presented by Dr Karen Lucas on 9th July 2014
http://www.its.leeds.ac.uk/people/k.lucas
Abstract:
Until now, human and social factors have not been very dominant aspects of transportation research. The general trend has been a biased towards more technical and engineering studies and transport economics. Nevertheless, there has been continuous social science research on the fringes of transport studies. For example behavioural psychology has been used in traffic safety risk management and human geography has been concerned with the interface between space, time, and mobility. There has also been a significant academic discourse around transport equity and the mobility and accessibility needs of transport disadvantaged groups, which has gathered momentum in recent years. More lately, sociologists and cultural geographers have begun to explore the embodied meanings and the cultural significance of different transport modes within our everyday social practices.
A number of scholars within the Institute of Transport Studies at Leeds have already forged important cross-disciplinary partnerships with other disciplines within and outside the University. In this lecture, I will explore the potential to further strengthen and exploit these new directions within transport research. I will briefly reflect on the opportunities for achieving this through mechanisms such as within the University’ core research themes, the new Social Science Strategy, other research University-wide supported initiatives and more informal collaborations. But more importantly I will be asking whether it is possible to use these inter-disciplinary collaborations to radicalise our research enquiries so that we are able to offer transformational solutions to overcome the currently environmentally unsustainable and socially unjust allocation of mobility resources within and between nations.

International students and libraries, maximising potential
This document discusses international students and libraries. It provides statistics on the rising numbers of international students globally and in countries like the UK. The top source countries for international students in the UK are China, India, USA, Nigeria and Malaysia. Most international students study at the undergraduate level. The top subject areas and universities attracting international students are also outlined. The document also examines libraries' approaches to serving international students, finding that few have specific staff or web pages for international students. It provides recommendations for libraries to better manage expectations, provide staff training, adapt resources and information literacy instruction, and enhance communication and strategies to serve international students.
Collaborating in the development of learning literacies
The document discusses collaborating across professional groups to integrate learning literacies for staff, students, and policies. It begins with learning outcomes and introduces three case studies on staff development at City University, student development through the University of Manchester's "My Learning Essentials" program, and policy development at Queen Mary University of London. Participants then engage in a world cafe discussion on the topics before reflecting. The goal is for developers across fields to work together to facilitate integrated development of various literacies and embed them within curricula. Challenges include differing perceptions of literacies and ensuring approaches are sustainable and reach all students.
Scholarly activity, curriculum development and student involvement

Tim Bullough & Anthony Sinclair: Working with your discipline's HEA Subject Centres. Slides from the University of Liverpool Learning and Teaching Conference 2009.
The Higher Education Academy was formed in 2004 as “a single, central body to support the enhancement of learning and teaching in higher education” in the UK. It currently spends about half of its ~£25million annual budget supporting a Subject Network of 24 National Subject Centres, designed to support teaching and learning across all the main subject disciplines in UK higher education. Although the Subject Centre network is well used by many academic staff, the majority probably have little contact with them. The aim of this session is to discuss ways in which teaching staff can work with, and potentially be supported by, the their discipline’s Subject Centre. Examples will include how staff at Liverpool work with their Subject Centre to develop teaching resources, help train and support fellow academic teachers and students, and even inform national policy.
Teaching Development Grants are a common way that Subject Centres support academic staff, providing funds to develop teaching resources or investigate teaching policy. A major study has just been completed by UKCME (the materials subject centre) analysing the characteristics of Teaching Development Grants which produced useful outputs for individual academics, departments and/or the discipline’s community. These will be discussed by UKCME researchers and colleagues in the History, Classics and Archaeology Subject Centre also based in Liverpool. The session should be of interest to any teaching staff at Liverpool who currently work with their discipline’s subject centre, or have thought about doing so but were not sure where to start.Throwing the baby out with the bathwater: Rethinking the undergraduate disse...
1) The document discusses rethinking the traditional dissertation model and argues for greater flexibility and choice in the form, function, and assessment of final year projects.
2) It notes that a one-size-fits-all approach does not work for all students and disciplines, and that alternative or additional research-led projects should be offered.
3) The document provides several case studies of alternative final year project models from different institutions and disciplines that incorporate collaborative, employment-based, or community-engaged projects.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
