Working with partner agencies to support children and families through early ...CILIP
Diana Gerald's (BookTrust CEO) presentation to the CILIP 2017 Conference in Manchester #CILIPConf17
The Bookstart programme is now in its 25th year. It is a unique partnership between BookTrust, Arts Council England, the Welsh Government, publishers across the UK and every local authority across England and Wales. Activity in Northern Ireland is localised, and growing.Within each authority are other unique partnerships between libraries, health visitors, children’s centres, early years settings, cultural organisations and other services. By working together they ensure that every child’s reading journey is supported from birth through programmes which include the gifting of high quality books, resources and expert messaging.Abigail will explore what multi-agency working entails and its benefits as they relate to changes taking place across local government, and will provide library practitioners with a toolkit for working with partner agencies. A short film will include examples of local authorities who are putting children, families and reading at the centre of services by working together through the Bookstart programme

Fostering the Reading and Writing Connection in Middle School Language Arts
How can you encourage students to read, write and like it? How can you tap into the literature that they like and the writing that they do to encourage student engagement?

Essential questions provide a rich, meaningful way to frame global learning experiences for students. They open doors to inquiry and invite students to truly grapple with the complex issues of the global curriculum. In this session, we will explore what makes a question essential and how to transform a good essential question into a great one. We will closely examine the ISSN Essential Question Matrix – a menu of high quality essential questions addressing 15 globally significant issues across all grade levels and content areas – and explore a variety of specific ways to use them to enhance global learning in our classrooms and schools.

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.

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.
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.
