Interactive learning using Xerte: minding the skills gap. Coombs & StantonIL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)
The document describes a project to create an online tutorial using Xerte software to help nursing students improve their information skills. An evaluation found that students who used the online tutorial were able to learn at their own pace and revisit material, but some finished too quickly or skipped interactions. Based on student feedback, improvements were made such as simplifying content and providing handouts. While no significant differences were found between the online and traditional methods, positive outcomes included the ability to learn independently and at one's own pace.OERu anchor partner meeting 2013
This document summarizes an AST1000 Regional Relations in Asia and the Pacific course offered by the University of Southern Queensland. The course is fully accredited, offered twice over 20 weeks for first year undergraduate students, and is a prototype for the OERu. It had small student numbers but they were engaged and high achievers who interacted well with course objectives and assessment. Students preferred using Moodle over the course Wiki.

The document discusses overcoming barriers to accessing advanced science content through online education. It proposes a case-based science curriculum delivered through an online learning platform that allows students in impoverished or rural schools to access real-world scenarios, expert explanations, interactive simulations and immediate feedback through assessments. The platform would facilitate peer discussions and interactions with teachers to reinforce learning, while providing definitions of advanced scientific terms. Teachers would require training to facilitate online learning as constant student engagement is important but not through negative reinforcement.
OER Presentation
- Open educational resources (OER) provide financial savings for students by reducing the cost of textbooks and course materials. However, OER may be of lower quality than traditional resources and require additional work from instructors to evaluate and integrate into their courses.
- OER can give instructors access to new, alternative teaching materials and force them to be more creative in their lesson planning compared to relying on pre-existing textbook content. However, this added work burden is a drawback.
- While OER democratizes education by making materials widely accessible, some students may still lack reliable Internet access to take advantage of online OER. Accessibility for disabled students is also a concern.

Using text-to-speech in exams - practical solutions and pitfalls, UK perspective
Presented by Paul Nisbet and Abi James at the BDAN International Conference, March 2014.
Since 2012 the JCQ Access Arrangements have acknowledged that candidates using a Computer Reader or text-to-speech technology are reading independently making such provision available to candidates in exams that test reading skills for the first time. While use of digital exams with text-to-speech has been widely supported in Scotland through the work of SQA and CALL Scotland for a number of years, the rest of the UK has not had equivalent access. From 2013/14 exam boards in England, Wales and Northern Ireland propose to provide digital versions of exam papers to schools for text-to-speech users. This paper will draw on experiences in Scotland and the work of the BDA New Technology Committee to identify processes and best practices within schools for using these digital papers and to identify the best text-to-speech technology to maximise the benefits for students.
Inclusively enhancing learning from lecture recordings: using Synote without ...
The government have clarified changes to the Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA), which mean that universities need to find ways to make teaching and learning more inclusive.
This demonstration will enable participants to experience how Synote has been used at the University of Southampton and other universities to address DSA cut by enhancing a lecture recording through providing an online searchable interactive transcript time synchronised with video, audio and notes.
Automatic machine captioning is affordable compared with professional human captioning and notetaking and can give just as good results when students are provided with the ability to correct any speech recognition errors in the transcript.
Robert Heath, Barcroft Primary School
The document discusses using an electronic Record of Professional Development (eROPD) with PebblePad instead of a traditional paper-based system. A pilot project was conducted with 10 PGCE students to produce their ROPD electronically. Some benefits found so far include having access anywhere at any time, ability to include different media types as evidence, and no large paper folder to carry. However, it also takes time to set up profiles correctly and training is needed for students on using the technology. Overall the eROPD approach shows potential but still has areas for improvement.
ICTBITES, Presentation på eLA 2010
The document summarizes a mobile learning (m-learning) project in Tanzania that aimed to address problems with e-learning accessibility by using mobile phones to provide educational content and facilitate communication. The project provided secondary teacher trainees with mobile phones containing study guides, presentations, videos and quizzes for three courses. While students found the mobile resources useful, project managers struggled to gain full support from course lecturers. For future scaled-up efforts, more involvement of and alternative roles for lecturers are recommended, along with expanding the mobile content. The project demonstrated the potential of m-learning to empower learners through accessible educational materials.

Superheroes in disguise
The document discusses Microsoft PowerPoint and Adobe Reader as presentation tools that are commonly used but often underutilized. PowerPoint is frequently used to simply display lists of bullet points read verbatim by presenters without effectively using features like images, animations, and charts. Adobe Reader allows for annotating PDFs but many are unaware of its full capabilities. The document encourages exploring additional features of these familiar tools to create more engaging presentations.
Exploring the power of familiar tools
The document discusses exploring the power of familiar tools like Microsoft PowerPoint and Adobe Reader for creating educational content. It provides examples of how these programs can be used to add images, audio, video, and animations. The document suggests PowerPoint and Adobe Reader are often overlooked but can be used to create engaging content like example presentations, drawings, and "ebooks" without a large learning curve. It acknowledges that fully covering the topic could require multiple sessions and leaves additional ideas like using Sway or creating narrated talks or posters for future discussions.

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.
