The keys to success are focusing on pedagogy, gaining support from IT, using fewer apps, and engaging students. Useful links are provided for exploring iPad integration further.
M learning
Mobile learning has two meanings: participating in learning events while mobile using mobile devices, and learning from one's environment and encounters while mobile. It allows learning during more hours of the day and found time. Mobile learning can reduce infrastructure costs and allows more people to teach by fitting education into schedules. Effective mobile learning requires adapting existing education for mobile formats and capabilities, accommodating mobile learners in virtual classrooms, and designing for limitations of mobile devices.
Developing online listening exercises for natural English
This presentation discusses developing online listening exercises for English using speech recognition technology. It addresses challenges like getting text from audio, creating exercises for different devices, and tracking student progress. Speech recognition software like Dragon and Dictanote can extract text from audio with varying accuracy. The presenter suggests combining audio and text by having students speak into speech recognition software to generate text they can read along with. Multimedia exercises created with Hot Potatoes can embed audio and video to allow students to practice listening comprehension.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17

Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
