This document discusses digital literacy and employability from the perspective of UCL Careers. It explains that employability involves gaining initial employment, maintaining employment, and making successful career decisions. The university can help students inside the curriculum, alongside the curriculum through co-curricular activities, and outside the curriculum. Students are encouraged to develop digital skills for recruitment like using LinkedIn, practicing tests, and gaining skills employers want like editing videos. Faculties are helping students through activities like internships and scenario weeks. While it is ultimately the students' responsibility, tutor engagement can boost skills development for employability.
A full assessment & feedback history would:
- Let Students and Personal Tutors review feedback and grades to help determine how to improve academically.
- Help Personal and Module Tutors to identify students who may need additional support.
- Enable Tutors to pick up on longitudinal developments, creating opportunities to engage in a feedback dialogue.
- Help Students to identify patterns and understand their feedback, so they can act upon it (feed forward).

New business models for competency-based higher education - The opportunities...EduSkills OECD
This presentation was given by Pedro J. Lara (Universidad Europea – Laureate International Universities) at the international seminar “Opening higher education: what the future might bring” 8-9 december 2016, in Berlin, Germany, jointly organised by OECD Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI) and Laureate International Universities (LIU).
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled Biz Models for Hi-Tech Products to analyze the business model for Coursera. Coursera offers massive open online courses and thus challenges the current business models of most universities. It offers these online courses to its students and to the students of other universities. By using courses that have been developed by universities and other organizations and by offering these courses to thousands if not millions of potential customers, Coursera has much lower costs per course and per student than do conventional universities. These slides analyze the challenges for Coursera and the potential solutions in the form of customer selection, value proposition, and method of value capture.

Your digital footprint - presentation Moira Wright
The concept of a digital footprint and why it is so important for students to understand their activity on the web can be a valuable asset or can lead to trouble if not watched carefully.
In recognition that student partners and change agents are a key enabler in the area of technology change, the change agents' network has been designed to disseminate findings and support other institutions in implementing staff-student partnerships.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
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.

How do employers target potential recruits?
“Whilst I studied a humanities subject, economics and data handling
modules were an integral part of my degree.”
“Geographers do not just study about climate change and
environmental sustainability. My geographical training has equipped
me with an array of skills, from research and database management
to programming in Python. I am adept in creating structures to
streamline processes and facilitate data analysis, both numerical
and qualitative.”
