This document summarizes the activities of the Connacht Ulster Alliance (CUA) iNOTE project from 2019-2022, which is aimed at building digital teaching and learning capabilities across 8 institutions. It discusses the following key steps:
1) Conducting a digital capabilities audit and needs analysis in 2019.
2) Developing an online digital education platform and certificate program with courses in digital teaching and learning.
3) Creating an online digital resources directory and knowledge platform.
4) Delivering webinar and workshop series on digital skills that had over 5,500 registrations.
5) Establishing a network of digital champions at the institutions to support digital skills development.

The goal of D-TRANSFORM (http://www.dtransform.eu/) is to implement a training program for leaders of European universities (presidents, vice-presidents) focusing on the major role played by digital technologies and Open Educational Resources (OER) in the necessary transformation of their institutions. The premise is that e-education (digital pedagogy and training) can become a strategic tool for European universities, enabling them to be pedagogically more effective, more cost-effective, more attractive and able to meet the needs of the professional world with regard to youth training and life-long learning.
This webinar focused on a comparative survey between Spain, France, Italy and the United Kingdom on public digital policies and Dr. Szucs presented an overview on the business models for opening up education – Sustainability of MOOCs, OER and related online education approaches in higher education in Europe. The presentation also aimed to answer the question of whether Open Educational Resources are a lever for digital transition of higher education.
The slide deck of my talk in a webinar organised by the National Commission for Further and Higher Education of Malta on digital education and approaches to do e-learning aligned to the Malta Qualifications Framework (MQF) and other NCFHE guidelines.

This presentation (delivered on 1 June 2016 in Bratislava) was tailored to the knowledge, experience and confidence of the LLLP Annual Conference audience with regards to the European Union programmes available at the time.
I brushed over or drilled deep down - as the audience demanded - into some of the fundamental issues, problems and challenges I faced and resolved over 15 years of working with EU projects.
The conference participants were not only provided with strategic advice on how to identify the right call to match their research
and development ambitions, how to assemble a solid partnership and how to translate their ideas and plans into a well elaborated application, but also how to define key performance indicators, manage time, human resources and how to tackle the financial planning of a complex multi-stakeholder project.

European Framework for the Digital Competence of Educators
DigCompEdu
Christine Redecker (Author)
Yves Punie (Editor)
JRC SCIENCE FOR POLICY REPORT
Abstract
As educators face rapidly changing demands, they require an increasingly broader and more sophisticated
set of competences than before. In particular, the ubiquity of digital devices and the duty to help students
become digitally competent requires educators to develop their own digital competence.
On an international and national level a number of frameworks, self-assessment tools and training
programmes have been developed to describe the facets of digital competence for educators and to
help them assess their competence, identify their training needs and offer targeted training. Based on
the analysis and comparison of these instruments, this report presents a common European Framework
for the Digital Competence of Educators (DigCompEdu). DigCompEdu is a scientifically sound background
framework which helps to guide policy and can be directly adapted to implementing regional and national
tools and training programmes. In addition, it provides a common language and approach that will help
the dialogue and exchange of best practices across borders.
The DigCompEdu framework is directed towards educators at all levels of education, from early childhood
to higher and adult education, including general and vocational education and training, special needs
education, and non-formal learning contexts. It aims to provide a general reference frame for developers
of Digital Competence models, i.e. Member States, regional governments, relevant national and regional
agencies, educational organisations themselves, and public or private professional training providers.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

capability. The report provides a visual representation of your scores along
with a capability rating (developing, capable or proficient), and for
subscribers, suggested next steps to take and links to relevant resources for
each section. The report will help you to identify your strengths as well as
opportunities for further development, and highlight resources that can
help.
9. ▪ Discovery Tool engagement in GMIT began in April 2020.
▪ 112 staff completed (as at May 2020). Approx 21% of teaching staff.
▪ We encourage all staff to engage with the tool in December
2020/January 2021, so that we can gain an up to date picture of where
we are today, in relation to the COVID remote teaching challenges and
how we are doing in developing our digital capabilities.
