A lot of talk about the future of the internet sounds almost hippie-spiritual or faux-philosophical. The Internet is not the same as the world-wide-web. But the Internet-of-Things and the Semantic Web - all parts of Web 3.0, are beginning to be very important to our learning environments. Here is a summary of key features, ranging from access, creativity, and information architecture.
Educators are increasingly using new media and digital technologies to teach and engage their 21st century students. Reading, writing, gaming, trans-media, immersive worlds, augmented reality, and Web 3.0 are all part of the new digital frontiers. Whether it’s science or science fiction, Alice in Wonderland or Angry Birds, the dynamics of this new information ecology are transforming learning experiences in our schools. We can lead this learning revolution by ensuring that our library and the learning ecology we create can harness these new environments. How we do this, will determine our success and the future relevance and importance of our school libraries.

The Next Big Thing is Web 3.0. Catch It If You Can Judy O'Connell
The best minds on our planet are suggesting that the Internet will continue to be arguably the most influential invention of our time. We are in the midst of a highly dynamic and dramatically changing landscape. Where Web 1.0 made us consumers of information, Web 2.0 allowed us to be participators and creators. Web 3.0 and the Semantic Web technologies are beginning to play a larger and more significant role in the search and filtering of the content fire hose that teachers and students encounter each day. How will the semantic web influence our learning and teaching encounters on the web? What is the connection between meaning and data? Will search or discovery be the main driving force in the 3.0 information revolution? How will information and knowledge creation in a semantic-powered online world develop? This session will draw on Semantic Web research and developments and show how connecting, collaborating and networking in a Web 3.0 world is changing the ground-rules once again.

Leading with Technology: Social Media Tools and Mobile Apps for 21st Century...Cheryl Peltier-Davis
There is significant value in using Social Media and Mobile Apps in social, political and economic spheres of activity. Within these areas, social media tools such as Blogs, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook share a common usage in supporting internal communication, collaboration, news aggregation, teaching, learning and knowledge sharing. Are there similar benefits for using social media within the spheres of Leadership and Management in Libraries? How are 21st century Library leaders utilising social media to enhance services in their organisations and connect and communicate with stakeholders? What are the opportunities and challenges associated with using social media in Libraries? This presentation seeks to address these issues.
It highlights some of the core competencies (professional and personal) that is required for library leaders to function effectively in a technologically driven environment and introduces emerging trends and concepts - cloud storage, crowdfunding, makerspaces, MOOCs, news aggregation, photo and video sharing, self-publishing, social networking, video conferencing, visualization - that can be readily adopted and adapted (‘mashed up’) in libraries and other knowledge repositories. The goal is to develop and share a toolkit of resources for 21st century library leaders who are willing to use Social Media and Mobile Apps to engage their communities, reshape and add value to the effective delivery of innovative library services.
Young people, in particular, have grasped the enormous capacity of the new media to foster connectedness, communication and understanding between individuals and communities, and they are turning to them as means of communicating with existing friends, of meeting new friends, of forming communities and networks, of seeking information and news, and of sharing their ideas and opinions. What does this mean for catechetical ministry?
As the volume of free internet resources continue to grow exponentially there are opportunities for stakeholders in education – parents, teachers, administrators and policy makers - to facilitate community access to this e-content. This presentation focuses on free social media tools, mobile apps and other innovative technologies which have been adopted by educators in 21st century global communities. Attendees will learn about the latest trends in cloud storage, crowdfunding, ebooks, makerspaces, MOOCs, news aggregation, photo/video sharing, self-publishing, social networking, bookmarking, video conferencing, visualization services and augmented reality. The goal – to promote ‘Tech Tools’ which can be easily integrated into the home and working environment.
Learning Technology Zone: Thoughts and Ideas for Youth MinistersCaroline Cerveny

Bells, Whistles and Digital Tools for the 21st Century CatechistCaroline Cerveny
So you know you should be using Digital tools in your ministry! Yet, we find so many excuses to stay in our comfortable world. What steps do I take as a catechist to get on board with what the Pope has referred to as the Digital Continent? In this ever evolving collaborative and digital communications world, how do I stay abreast with what is happening all around me? With a limited budget, how do I stretch it to include technology? Where do I start? How do I share my success stories? Is Digital Discipleship and Digital Citizenship important today?
The Gutenberg printing press in the 1450s opened new technology that affected the everyday world. This change was part of a disruptive force on church and society – a Copernicum Revolution. New ways of learning and new resources became available. What happened then was a gradual, profound change not just in the ways people communicated but, in the ways, people thought and the ways in which they formed meaning. I believe similar changes are unavoidable now and in fact are already happening. Digital Culture is surrounding us in a variety of ways, is real and can no longer be feared or ignored in the Church. Today’s workshop will provide a place to begin exploring what is meant by Digital Discipleship and/or Digital Ministry.
In the 50th World Day of Social Communications message, entitled Communication and Mercy: A Fruitful Encounter, Pope Francis said that “emails, text messages, social networks and chats” can be “fully human forms of communication”.
“It is not technology which determines whether or not communication is authentic, but rather the human heart and our capacity to use wisely the means at our disposal,” the Pope said.
He added: “Communication, wherever and however it takes place, has opened up broader horizons for many people. This is a gift of God which involves a great responsibility. I like to refer to this power of communication as ‘closeness’.”
Goals:
• To raise consciousness – What does it mean to “lead” at a time of transition often referred to as “middle space” in our evolving digital culture?
• To identify the new skills (best-practices) that are needed to effectively engage in ministry in our evolving digital culture.
The everyday world around us is utilizing tools and social media in their communications world. How are our parishes engaged in this digital communications world? What can parish clergy, staff, and parishioners do to engage others in this digital world?
Rather than lament the loss of a 1950s model where churches were typically the center of social of social and cultural life in American, how do we adapt to a world where technology is an integral part of everyday life?
Pope Francis recently said "that if guided by the Holy Spirit, we can discover opportunities to lead humankind toward God" by using the Internet. Is this opportunity one of being a DIGITAL DISCIPLE? Being a Digital Disciple involves being a real person with a passion to share goodness, faith, and more in an online environment. Is it possible? What is the balance of digital communication and authentic and direct human relations? Does it just involve social media or is there more? What does it mean to be connected? What is the "attitude" that I bring to the digital environment? As a lay minister, when I communicate in today's online environment, what are my family, friends, and parishioners expecting? Is proclaiming Christ in the digital era a work of youth or of all of us?
The Technology & Pastoral Planning workshop explores what is important while planning and implementing technology into your parish (or diocesan) Pastoral Plan.
Yes, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest are the often used tools in our parish digital spaces! Yet these social media tools remain the tip of the iceberg. A number of other tools are available to you! Just because they are strange names does not mean they are to be ignored and forgotten. Rather these twenty-first century tools can each be valuable additions to your ministry resources. Many graduates of our Digital Discipleship Boot Camp have been amazed at how easy and helpful these tools can be in ministry and evangelization. No matter what your ministry these are a gift waiting for you. Come and See! You will be wonderfully surprised!
Building the Future of Catechesis in a Digital WorldCaroline Cerveny
A presentation for the sponsoring groups of Dioceses of Owensboro and Evansville and St. Meinrad School of Theology for the Catechetical Leadership Institute.
This 21st century presents opportunities and challenges. What do today's catechetical leader and catechist need to know about technology? How do we employ technology to transform and enhance catechesis? What does it mean to accept the challenge of, and actively participate in learning new technologies? What catechetical materials exist in a digital format and are we ready for them? What technology standards do we need to move forward? Come to engage in a conversation as we ask ourselves, how do we catechize in a Digital World?

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
