This document outlines Gráinne Conole's presentation on designing for learning in an open world. The presentation discusses the evolving landscape of e-learning, including emerging technologies, learner experiences, new pedagogies, and open practices. It also examines teacher practices and paradoxes, and strategies for change, including intervention frameworks and new approaches to learning design. Key research questions are posed around learner and teacher experiences with technologies, available resources and pedagogical patterns, emerging e-pedagogies, and strategies to promote e-learning.

Designing Learning in the Digital Age - Global Meta-trends affecting EducationVanguard Visions
Educational business models are changing around the world, requiring educators and education systems to re-think their approaches to learning and education. Allison will provide an overview of the global meta-trends affecting education and its impact on the way we design learning in the digital age.

Education and training business models are changing around the world. These changes are requiring educators and educational leaders to re-think their approaches to learning and assessment to remain relevant and/or competitive.
This session will provide an overview of the global meta-trends impacting education and training, and highlight how they are effecting the way we should be designing learning in the digital age.

Personal Learning Environments or PLEs enable the creation of personal and social learning spaces
to support learner-centered and personalized learning experiences empowering students to direct
their own learning and develop self-regulated learning skills. PLEs are built bottom-up, by the student,
starting with personal goals, information management, and individual knowledge construction, and
progressing to socially mediated knowledge and networked learning. A PLE can be entirely controlled
and adapted by a student providing an engaged learning experience, however students must acquire
and apply a set of personal knowledge management and self-regulatory skills to create effective PLEs.
This talk will address this critical issue focusing on the use of social media as an educational platform
for scaffolding the strategic design of PLEs.
In this presentation at SXSWedu in March 2013, Dr. Gigi Johnson explores the fuzzy world of “blended” courses in higher education. She dissects the tensions and tribulations as universities attempt to blend F2F and web-enriched tools in traditional environments, including challenges of time, space, and data politics in research universities, challenges with cost structures and faculty development, and abundant legal and IP issues. What is a class vs. what it could be with rich alternative technologies for learning? How do old universities rethink “class” instead of “just” repackage learning in a blended environment?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.

41. Final thoughts
• Participatory and social media enable new forms of
communication and collaboration
• Communities in these spaces are complex and
distributed
• Learners and teachers need to develop new digital
literacy skills to harness their potential
• We need to rethinkhow we design, support and assess
learning
• Open, participatory and social media can provide
mechanisms for us to share and discuss teaching and
research ideas in new ways
• We are seeing a blurring of boundaries:
teachers/learners, teaching/research, real/virtual
spaces, formal/informal modes of communication and
