This document outlines the process and activities for a STEM camp focused on design thinking. The camp uses design thinking to help students address challenges through defining problems, ideating solutions, and prototyping ideas. Key aspects include having students assume a beginner's mindset, state a challenge question, define the problem through research, brainstorm many solutions, create prototypes, and present their ideas. Students document their process and ideas on a wiki for sharing.
Going from criticism to critique, this guide dips into the history and morphing of the modern critique. Learn how to give better presentations, feedback, and how to take advantage of all the learning and teaching moments.
In this hands-on, interactive session, Len will share some basic principles of the design studio method, share how you can use the design studio method to rapidly generate ideas for your own digital products, and then facilitate a mini design studio challenge that is sure to leave you with practical skills to apply to your work and bonded with meetup attendees.
Making an Impact After the Internship: 9 Things Worth KnowingSteven Striegel
I was asked to talk about my experience going from an internship to a new hire after graduating. The audience consisted of students, graduates, interns, and recent hires mostly in the tech industry.
This is my presentation on gamification in education from the MADLaT Conference, 2014. In it, I discuss what gamification is, what MMORPGs are like, and how you can map those strategies to a course you are teaching.
Liane Elias of UNCG Libraries presented this workshop for our Tech Tool Thursdays on Nov 7 2013. As social media changes quickly it can be difficult to know what is a fad and what is worth learning and using. Pinterest, one of the newer social media tools, has been gaining in popularity and can be used as a powerful tool in visual learning. It allows you to create visual book, movie and resource lists that can engage students more fully than simple words. This session showcases the basics for using Pinterest as a planning and teaching tool.
Meetings are terrible and planning is guessing. In 1 hour, learn how to run Decision Sprints—a fast paced alternative to meetings that leads to decisions and clear next steps. Plus a sneak peek into Design Sprints and why they work.
Collaboration within a multidisciplinary team: working together to solve design problems more effectively. These slides are from a workshop at UX Cambridge 2012 presented with Andy Morris and Revathi Nathaniel from Red Gate. The workshop aimed to promote the role of UX practitioners as facilitators and gave participants the opportunity to try out the KJ-Method and Design Consequences game.

Libraries are continually developing new programs and services to meet the needs of their community. But designing for the future can be challenging. How do you identify where to make changes? How do you make changes without taking on too much risk? How do you measure and evaluate the success of new library programs and services?
This workshop is an interactive experience, guiding teams through a process to find solutions for real library challenges and problems. Participants work in teams and be guided through activities to identify innovative solutions, set goals, and manage risk. Activities will help participants develop design thinking skills and a growth mindset.
Participants walk away with basic principles of innovative design processes. Participants gain confidence and feel empowered to think about innovation and innovative ideas in their libraries. As a result, they will become better risk takers and be able to develop better solutions.

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.

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.
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.

What are your hopes and dreams for this week? What do you imagine are the possibilities?
What are your hopes and dreams for this week? What do you imagine are the possibilities?
Develop an understanding of the type of person you are designing for – your USER.
Synthesize and select a limited set of NEEDS that you think are important to fulfill; you may in fact express a just one single salient need to address.
Work to express INSIGHTS you developed through the synthesis of information your have gathered through empathy and research work.
Then articulate a point-of-view by combining these three elements – user, need, and insight – as an actionable problem statement that will drive the rest of your design work.
Build an overview Think about the connections these people have with your topic. Who are the fans? Who are the skeptics? Who do you need the most? Create a visual overview of those who you consider to be your main audience, as opposed to more peripheral contacts.
How are they a part of your challenge?
What are the needs?
