Journey to the Future: An Economy in Harmony with NatureGuy Dauncey
Our political and business leaders tell us that economic growth is the answer to everything, increasing GDP. From Nature’s perspective, however, GDP stands for Gross Depletion of the Planet.
How can we build a new cooperative economy that will enable us to meet our human needs, while restoring ecological integrity, and ensuring that Earth’s eight million other species are able to meet their needs too?
Guy Dauncey’s new book Journey to the Future: A Better World is Possible offers a compelling vision of a green future where a new cooperative economy is being put in place.
Presented to the SPEC Elders Circle, Vancouver, May 16, 2017.

Make sustainability sustainable (preview)Fan Foundry
Marketing "green" products often backfires because, much as we'd like all buyers to follow the altruistic "because green is better" thinking, other unaddressed factors intervene to short circuit that thinking, with the result that sustainable solutions fail to gain traction in the hearts and minds of buyers. But it doesn't have to be that way.

Earth the water planet is a basic introduction to an ecological view of our worldwide water resources. Intended for middle school through adult learners, this program goes through the distribution, goldilocks effect and some physical properties of water. In addition the presentation includes a brief look a a couple aspects of climate change, water use/pollution and the link between clean water, health, wealth and population.
Thanks to USGS for providing key facts and images.
A compilation of key characteristics of scientists. Can be used in K-12 or informal setting to acquaint students to what scientists are like and the habits of mind scientists possess. The characteristics can actually be sorted in any particular order, however a key point is that each stands alone and together they make an individual that is suited for science as a field of work or study.
Science is like a child looking at a butterflyjschmied
A presentation, seen through the eyes of a child, for students of all ages, Helps students review what it is to learn the "Layers" of science. Science requires that our students continue to "take things to the next level", and its important that each student understands that they will work through different levels of science learning for each topic time in and time out. This presentation can be used by school science classes and after school science programs, nature programs and environmental programs.
Outlines an emerging Leadership program for present and future leaders as applied in an educational, non profit, military, business or any leadership setting. However, this foundational training is universally applied knowledge that can be systematically applied in any setting where people work together to accomplish goals. Topics: teaming, storming, leadership, participation and teamwork attributes, the Deming cycle, cycle of respect, types of power as well as conflict resolution and goal setting.
Author John Schmied proposes that "foundational leadership training is key to future advancement & educational development". Akin to Maslow's hierarchy of needs in personal life, foundational knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA's) are key basic learning necessary for for a person's ability to progress successfully in any setting.
Author's leadership background: Military command, non profit leadership, public educational leadership, Director STEM environmental summer camps,Diving and Salvage Officer, Oceanographic operations, Ship Operations, Ice Operations, CG Maritime Law Enforcement, Personnel & Recruiting.

Presentation on basic situational analysis in science, analyzing the different key elements in scientific scenarios. The benefit is that students are more capable in creating their own experiments with the proper elements in them. Helps in analyzing data as well as developing conclusions. Used in JHS and Middle school science classes
Basic introduction to clinical trials and the placebo effect. Definitions, examples and cartoons illustrating the subject. Ends with short info on informed consent.
This presentation explains trade offs and how to identify and compare "competing goods and services" when making a decision. Included are a variety of practice problems covering a wide range of common trade offs people face. This is a multiple use presentation. I use this mostly as an introduction to situational analysis and decision making in environmental and science issues scenarios, however it can be used in many other circumstances. Used in 7th through college level settings. Can be easily adapted to social and business issues.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

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.
