Research associate Kathryn Zickuhr discussed the Pew Research Center’s latest data on older adults and technology at JASA’s Seminar on Advocacy and Volunteering in New Landscapes in New York, NY.
The notion of privacy is rapidly changing as people work to define boundaries in their increasingly digital lives. As people become more aware of how their personal information is used and tracked, they live in uncomfortable spaces. Sometimes people make conscious trade-offs, providing personal information in return for something they value; at other times they are oblivious.

He described findings from two canvassings of hundreds of technology and democracy experts that captured their views about the future of democracy and the future of social and civic innovation by the year 2030. Among other subjects, the experts looked at the impact of misinformation, “techlash” and trust in government institutions.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 14, 2020 at a gathering sponsored by the International Institute of Communications. He described the most recent Center public opinion surveys since mid-March, covering the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, racial justice protests that began in the summer, and the final stages of the 2020 presidential election campaign. He particularly examined how and why people are using the internet in the midst of multiple national crises and their concerns about digital divide and homework gap issues. And he covered how the Center has researched the impact of misinformation in recent years.
Lee Rainie, director of internet and technology research, presented a synthesis of the Pew Research Center’s growing explorations of issues related to trust, facts and democracy at a forum hosted by the International Institute of Communications on December 5, 2018. His presentation covered Center findings related to declining trust in institutions, increasing challenges tied to misinformation and the ways in which concerns about trust and truth are linked to public attitudes about democracy.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology research, spoke about the skills requirements for jobs in the future at the International Telecommunications Union’s “capacity building symposium” for digital technologies. He discussed the changing structure of jobs and the broad labor force and the attitudes of Americans about the likely changes that robots, artificial intelligence (AI) and other advances in digital life will create in workplaces. The session took place in Santo Domingo on June 18, 2018.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, gave the Holmes Distinguished Lecture at Colorado State University on April 13, 2018.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

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.

schools, they had a similar
experience of learning their roommate
assignment and immediately turning
to Facebook to investigate that
person. Some had already begun
developing deep, mediated

asked for roommate transfers.
Beyond roommates, all had used
Facebook to find other newly minted

When pre-frosh turn to Facebook
before arriving on campus, they do
so to find other people who share
their interests, values, and
background. As such, they begin a
self-segregation process that results
in increased “homophily” on
campuses. Homophily is a
sociological concept that refers to the
notion that birds of a feather stick
together. In other words, teens
inadvertently undermine the
collegiate social engineering project
of creating diverse connections
through common experiences.

32. “When we interview young
people, they will talk about how
the Internet makes it easy for
them to look around and surf for
information in low risk and
unstructured ways. Some kids
immerse themselves in online
tutorials, forums, and expert
communities where they dive
deep into topics and areas of
interest, whether it is fandom,
creative writing, making online
videos, or gaming communities.”
– Mimi Ito
“Young people are
desperate for learning
that is relevant and
part of the fabric of
their social lives,
where they are
making choices about
how, when, and what
to learn, without it all
being mapped for
them in advance.”

39. K-12 teachers are not impressed
• 87% of AP & NWP teachers

creating an “easily distracted
generation with short
attention spans”
• 83% say amount of available
information is overwhelming

agree” that internet search
engines have condition
students to expect to find
information quickly &
easily
• 67% say technologies “do
more to distract students
than help them
academically.”
• Discourages wide use of
resources and makes it
harder to find credible
materials
40. But teachers also find positives
• 99% of AP & NWP teachers say it gives
students access to wider range of
resources
• 77% of teachers say internet & digital
search tools have “a mostly positive”
impact on HS student research habits

sufficient in their research
41. Final thoughts & questions
• Technology changes our relationship to place, but the
fundamental lure of the elite residential college will remain.
• Continue to engage in practices that put people with different
experiences together, to counteract the pull of technology of like
towards like
• The learners walking through your doors will continue to be
shaped by an ever-changing technological milieu – how much will
you move to meet them and how much will you hold on to the
value and efficiencies of the current teaching models?
• Are MOOCs the new textbook? Will we flip our classrooms with
MOOCs?
• How will colleges manage the challenges of distraction while
harnessing the promise and opportunities of bringing devices into
the classroom?
