Workshop: Tech futures: Innovating pedagogy
Bournemouth University has already hosted its first holographic lecture, presented by BBC Arts editor Will Gompertz; is building an immersive suite; and is exploring technobooths of the future – but what technologies are there that are pedagogically sound, low cost, and can be delivered at scale? This interactive workshop will introduce participants to emergent technologies that will reflect the recent Open University Innovating Pedagogy Report on new forms of teaching, learning and assessment for an interactive world. It invites attendees to become active participants in productive innovation, and invites them to consider how they will meet the challenges of embedded these into daily teaching and learning.
Workshop facilitators: Dr Dave Fevyer, Innovation & Technology Manager; TEL Innovation & Development Service; Tracey Webb, Learning Technologist, Stephen Pyne, Learning Technologists, Dave Hunt, learning Technoloist, Dr Ben Goldsmith, researcher and Impact Lead, Dr Ann Luce, Principal Academic and Theme Leader for Technology Enhanced Learning and Debbie Holley, Professor of Learning Innovation.

Curriculum Design: leading learning in ICT lecture 11Miles Berry
University of Roehampton Y3 ICT specialists
At present ICT is a National Curriculum foundation subject in primary schools, although its programme of study and attainment target have now been ‘disapplied’. The Secretary of State has committed to reintroduce a programme of study for all four key stages for September 2014. For now, schools are free to decide what is taught and how it is assessed, reflecting the curricular autonomy enjoyed by academies, free schools and the independent sector.
As an ICT coordinator you should expect to give a firm steer to the development of ICT within and across your school’s curriculum, providing both the freedom and responsibility to provide your school’s pupils with the best possible technological education. You’re likely to take responsibility for crafting the school’s scheme of work for ICT, taking account of whatever statutory requirements are in place for your school at the time.
We look at ICT’s place within the present National Curriculum and some alternative approaches. We consider alternative approaches to the delivery of ICT. We explore common characteristics of both an ICT curriculum and a scheme of work for ICT and approaches that might be followed in creating one.

An expert panel will discuss which emerging technologies offer the most promise in helping with the challenge’s universities and colleges face, including an in depth look at the mental health and wellbeing challenge.
The session will be based on Jisc's first horizon report, which is aimed at helping managers prioritise which emerging technologies they should be working within their institutional strategies.
Many see the iPad as having the potential to transform learning and teaching in schools, although deployment raises a number of issues, not least in terms of pedagogy.
We return to the theme of mobile and hand-held learning from Lecture 4, but focusing specifically on the iPad as a platform for learning and teaching. You consider some of the ways in which iPad apps can be used to support learning across the curriculum, both within and beyond school, considering both individual and shared access to devices.
You work as a group to compile a wiki of recommended apps for the primary curriculum.
Technological literacy is required for learning with technologies to be possible, implying a two-step process in which students learn about the technologies before they can actually use them to learn

Pedagogy not technology has been the guiding light in developing the Digital Teaching Framework (DTPF) in collaboration with Jisc. The focus has been on how technology can help teachers and trainers in their existing professional practice, as well as helping them to develop new professional practice. In addition, the needs of the FE sector have been addressed with extensive input from representatives of all parts of the sector.
In this session, Vikki and Dawn will:
Give an overview of the Enhance Digital Enhance Digital Teaching Professional Platform and the Digital Teaching Professional Framework
Discuss the rationale leading to this model of programme development
Show you how to optimise the use Enhance and DTPF for your personal professional development
Discuss building digital capability and know-how to better embed edtech in teaching learning and assessment
The Digital age is doing much more complete a technology checklist. They know their success hinges on people, but the real impact will be evolving the school culture.
Digital education challenges for development are rarely related to the lack of technological solutions, but rather to the management of disruptive innovations among different organisational stakeholders.

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

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.
