New perspectives on building capacity for global connections and collaborationsJulie Lindsay
Since the 1990’s educators have leveraged the power of the Internet to forge online global collaborative learning. More recently global competency and intercultural understanding in conjunction with cross-border collaboration and digital fluency have emerged as ‘future ready’ key capabilities. However, learning environments struggle to embed authentic real world learning and build capacity for global connection and collaboration. Julie shares new perspectives on developing a Global Collaborator Mindset and implementing Online Global Collaborative Learning (OGCL) as a pedagogical approach.
It is imperative all educators become global - but what does this mean and how does it happen?
How do we define the global educator? Is it a qualification? Is it a self-declaration? Can it be proven through disposition, curriculum design, workflow, pedagogical approach, use of digital technology, or an ability to adapt and be flexible in learning? Is it all of these? As soon as the word ‘global’ is used we think about ‘global competency’ – are educators ready themselves to prepare students for adopting understandings that are global? The role online technologies play in supporting global educators is a significant factor also as it is through the use of emerging and established online technologies that global educators connect, communicate and collaborate.
Based on authentic material collected over the past 12+ months from global educators across the world this session explores the essential qualities of a global educator and a global education leader as well as global collaboration and learning design to go global, and provides strategies for becoming global.

Thought Leadership Marketing: From Hidden Talent to Visible Expert - Presente...Dana Vanden Heuvel
Thought Leadership Marketing: From Hidden Talent to Visible Expert - Presented at the Iowa AMA
Business-to-business (B2B) marketers are being asked to position their firms as thought leaders in the industries they serve, but many marketers are still murky on just what thought leadership is and even more unsure of how to activate their experts for thought leadership. Marketers need more than just a body of content and social media to become thought leaders on the issues that are most relevant to their customers.
This event is designed for marketers who seek to use thought leadership as a means to market their brand and want to know the best way to establish thought leadership within their industry. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of what thought leadership is, and what it is not, how to build the discipline of thought leadership in an organization and how to take the first steps away from ‘hidden talent’ toward the ideal of ‘visible expert’.
Attendees will leave armed with a series of tools to help them determine and test their platform, establish the right thought leadership channels and build the case for thought leadership marketing in their organization.

Cervantes contra Lope
Cervantes y Lope de Vega fueron dos grandes genios de las letras españolas, pero también dos acérrimos enemigos. El autor de «Don Quijote» era un hombre introvertido que ansiaba llegar a la fama, que en aquella época prácticamente solo la proporcionaba el teatro. Por eso envidiaba el éxito de Lope, que era, al contrario que él, extrovertido, fogoso, mujeriego y triunfador. Cuando salió el «Quijote de Avellaneda», que ridiculizaba parte de la obra cervantina, Cervantes no dudó que era obra de Lope. Y se desató la guerra entre ellos. Una batalla que TVE lleva a la televisión en «Cervantes contra Lope» (hoy, 22.50), una película producida por Minoría Absoluta y Onza Entertainment protagonizada por otros dos grandes talentos, en este caso de la actuación: Emilio Gutiérrez Caba y José Coronado.
The future of learning is global - a vision for leadershipJulie Lindsay
Schools want to go global, teachers want to connect their classrooms with the world, but what are the leadership skills needed to 'flatten' a school and launch it into the future. In fact, the future is now, the vision needs to be articulated now, and global learning should be planned across the curriculum now, not as an add on or as something too hard to access. This session will share ideas and resources for planning to move a learning community into a globally connected and collaborative future.

Flat Students - Flat Learning - Global UnderstandingJulie Lindsay
Many educators are now joining themselves, their students and schools to others across the globe. We all know that global collaboration, the sort that includes full connectivity and collaboration that leads to co-creation of artifacts and actions is not easy and takes time to plan, implement and manage. However, let’s think out of the box even further and start to promote and support independent student learning at the Middle and High School levels. Once the teacher is not the gateway (or the barrier) to global learning, then what?
The ‘flat’ student has a PLN and PLC’s to connect with at anytime. The ‘flat’ student can learn (connect, collaborate, co-create, take action) anywhere at anytime without constraints.
Join Julie as she explores this concept and practice of independent ‘flat’ student learning for global understanding and collaborative actions. Flat Connections projects will be featured as well as the new ‘Learning Collaboratives’ to start in 2015. If you want to take your global learning to a higher level, this is the session to attend!

Holistic approaches to online collaborative learning design: Web 2.0 technolo...Julie Lindsay
When designing online learning consideration should be given to how a community can be built around subject content and objectives and how students will interact with the academic and with each other. The institutional learning management system affords a safe and reliable albeit often less than inspiring space for learning. New digital learning environments using the affordances of Web 2.0 technologies support connected and collaborative pedagogies. Holistic approaches with a focus on multimodal design extends learning into online spaces for improved engagement, provision for response choices (text, audio, video), online publishing and media creation while fostering new pedagogical approaches.

Student autonomy for flat learning and global collaborationJulie Lindsay
The focus of this presentation is on developing student autonomy to build learning networks and communities of practice for collaboration, both local and global. We talk about the teacher as a connected and collaborative global learner, but we need to redesign the learning paradigm further to connect students in K-12 more independently with others. The role of the teacher as activator or ‘learning concierge’ for student network building is crucial. Knowledge construction via a non-hierarchical approach means the student must also learn to take responsibility for professional learning modes and not be reliant on the teacher as the conduit.
Join Julie to explore new ideas for collaborative learning to support deeper understanding about the world while working with the world.

Emerging technologies and increased access to networks is the catalyst to embed global awareness, interaction and understanding into all learning opportunities, but has this really happened yet? What positive social change needs to take place to fully realize the goal of a connected and 'flattened' environment that supports personalized learning?
Join Julie for 'How to Go Global' as she describes, and shows through current examples, how leadership, collaborative learning that leads to true co-creation, and building 'leagues' of designers, innovators and communities can take learning to the next level. Our future is important, let's articulate and plan to go global now.

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 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.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
