This session will look at how Griffith University is taking a ‘pedagogy first’ approach to the application of technology and how this can provide a sharper focus of how we advance our learning and teaching. This is particularly important now that much of what we do has moved into the online space and as we consider making these spaces more active, collaborative and authentic. With so many tools out there to choose from now, a ‘pedagogy first’ approach can help us to understand which combination of tools will provide us the most affordances.

Institutional transformation and development in the engineering education (1)Thanikachalam Vedhathiri
Most of the institutes face problems due to vulnerability, uncertainties, complexities, and ambiguities due to shortage of funds, the dearth of high-quality faculty members, and approval of innovative programs from the national councils. The institutes should plan to meet all these disruptions. The PPTs provide a set of guidelines to overcome these problems.
Developing learning capacity for teachersJune Wall
As new learning skills emerge it is necessary for teachers to develop sufficient capacity to develop learning programs that will provide the opportunity for students to develop these critical learning skills. ‘Learning and Literacy for the future: Building capacity Part 2’ by June Wall and Karen Bonanno, published in Scan, Volume 33, Issue 4 in 2014 considers a capacity building approach, through formal and information professional learning experiences, to ensure teachers develop competencies and capacity to help improve learning outcomes and prepare students for the rapidly changing world of work.
A capacity building tool is outlined and explained as a development tool for teachers to develop capabilities for future learning. Reflection and strategic visioning, that includes the development of a personal professional learning plan, is an integral component of the tool and will also be explained in this presentation.

Intending Learning and Learning by Intent: 10 Ways in Which a Degree Qualific...WASC Senior
At present, there is no national consensus in the US on the learning outcomes appropriate to associate, baccalaureate, and master's degrees. Such a consensus could serve many purposes, but one of the most important would be its potential positive impact on the learning process. Gaston has written on the Bologna Process and was one of the consultants to the Lumina Foundation's draft degree qualifications profile, titled "A Transformational Challenge for U.S. Higher Education." In his talk, he focuses on the advantages US students would enjoy as a result of more clearly defined expectations at each degree level. He also suggests ways in which such expectations might enhance the process of institutional accreditation.
Developing Surface and Deep Level Knowledge and Skill through Project Based L...mmcdowell13
The following draft presentation is centered on supporting educators who are working towards ensuring students are developing mastery in content, cognate, and cognitive learning outcomes in their classroom. The presentation focuses on strategies, underpinned by research, that elevate a teachers practice to inspect daily instructional and assessment strategies, build and inspect curriculum to enable surface and deep level knowledge construction, and to design a learning environment that builds the capacity of and involves learners in understanding their learning and taking action to constantly improve.
The slide deck goes further, providing guidance to site and district leaders to develop systems of deeper level learning.
Core outcomes of the presentation:
- Understand specific practices that limit the impact potential of problem and project based learning in the substantial enhancement of student learning
- Understand specific practices that have a high probability of enhancing student learning in the learning environments that utilize problem and project based learning.
- Understand underlying cognitive principles and specific strategies teachers may utilize to create a learning community to discuss learning, design and implement projects to ensure surface and deep level knowledge, and work collaboratively to review the impact of learning with students.
- Understand key tactical approaches that support site and district leaders in building and sustaining deeper learning systems.

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
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.
