Cultural Exchanges through Arts and LanguagePaige Vitulli
Cross-cultural collaboration between University of South Alabama College of Education faculty in the United States and visiting faculty from Shaoxing University in Shaoxing, China has resulted in a collection of conversations about the connection between art and language. Among the topics discussed are how cultural artifacts, including both historical and contemporary art, literature, food, and customs may be used to advance both the understanding of culture and linguistic fluency. Further, exploration of cultural misunderstandings and overgeneralizations are explored, and potential uses of art and language to overcome such barriers are discussed, including extensions of art that have worked in actual cross-cultural classroom contexts. The conversations, which include demonstration and discussion of cultural artifacts and customs as they relate to language and learning, will be used in Art Education and ESOL Education courses.

Multigenerational Volunteers: Using Technology to Engage a Diverse DemographicJessica Belcoure Marcetti
Museums commonly employ diverse groups of local volunteers and match them, based on their interests and skills to specific tasks and projects throughout the institution. But can we engage volunteers of varying ages, skills, and geographic locations with the same project? Yes! Using technology, tailored training sessions, and some creativity, it’s possible for retirees and university students to collaborate on the same collections-based project while meeting the individual needs of our volunteers and our collection.
When museums and volunteer-run cultural heritage organizations close, how can academic research libraries support their valuable collection and community stewardship processes? This panel will discuss the challenges to library conventions and librarian expertise encountered in the case of one museum-library merger. We invite audience members to question and brainstorm along with us about what it means to create a national model of museum-library mergers and advance national dialogs on the subject.
A presentation about how to help all kinds of people--visitors, community members, and staff--feel ownership and identity with their museums. Presented by Nina Simon as the keynote at the 2010 British Columbia Museums Association conference in Nanaimo, BC on October 28, 2010.
This letter was sent to the Somerville Library Director in February, 2010, in order to inform her regarding the current inaccessibility of several of this program's events. However, she ignored our concerns, and all inaccessible programs were presented to the public as originally planned.
The City of Somerville fails to demonstrate adequate understanding that inaccessible means: discrimination by design.
Library, Museum, Archival & Historical Societies: Resources for Emerging Bili...Manhattan College
This presentation discusses ways in which English as a second language teachers can use resources from library, museum, archival & historical societies. Frequently, librarians, museum educators/librarians, archivists, and historical society coordinators & researchers provide outreach to schools and education programs. Explore these ideas! Perhaps, one will be suitable to use in your classroom!

"Being a More Visible Support for LGBTQ* Communities – What Some Canadian Libraries are Doing to Promote LGBTQ* Services, Inclusivity, and Community Engagement" is Part 2 of "Nowhere to Turn, Nowhere to Go," representing a greatly expanded update from the previous version.
Part 1 is a separate SlideShare file entitled "Library Service and Collection Policies and Strategies for Supporting LGBTQ* Communities."
The core conviction is the same as for Part 1: Librarians are catalysts for social change and personal transformation.
Part 2 shows in vibrant visual images what some Canadian libraries -- post-secondary and public -- are doing to support and promote LGBTQ* services.
It also challenges viewers who are library service providers -- and at the same time it informs viewers who are library service users -- to address the question of: If there aren’t any now, how could you create LGBTQ* inclusive programs and services at your library?
Suggestions for promotion and advocacy to support LGBTQ* communities are addressed, but they are just suggestions. Visuals and narratives in this presentation show what 15 Canadian libraries in these two sectors are doing to support LGTBQ* populations, from specialized collections and reading lists to Pride parade engagement to the creation of public library GSAs to myriad events, workshops, guest speakers, special celebrations, collaborations and partnerships, and library volunteer staff groups.
2009 presentation at the Rare Books and Manuscripts Pre-Conference on the Mayme Clayton Library and Museum. Located in Culver City, CA, MCLM holds African Americana including rare books, manuscripts, photographs, motion pictures, ephemera, and art.

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.
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.
