This was a power point made for my presentation at the recent BJENY conference. The presentation was focused on using Web 2.0 tools in Judaic classes. While, I explained the practical use of each site at the presentation, these slides should be a useful resource. Enjoy. -Eliezer

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.

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.

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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Angelia Maiers, an educational consultant in Iowa has an answer to this question She refers to Digital Natives as Digital Comfy or Digital Savvy Digital Comfy means that digital devices are a part of life. But it doesn’t mean that they know how to use it. Digial Savvy refers to the Digital Native who is not only comfortable but also knowledgeable in using technology. That is what we as teachers need to strive to support. So let’s talk about the arena where this is all happening.
Web 2.0 is Participatory It is an application unto itself It is social and collaborative Facebook Generation - about Connecting People 3 kinds of death - body, brain, off line So in this world of social collaboration, what do you need? . . . .
Cooperation is where everybody does the same thing to create a final product. Often when we have students work in groups, they tend to do things cooperatively where everyone works on the same jobs in creating a project. This is cooperation, we need collaboration
Collaboration involves using people’s strengths to create a final project . Notice that we have some people working on the roof and some working on the walls. This strategy uses individuals’ strengths and creates a finer product.
So how do we support Collaboration through the Web? We use tools that optimize the capabilities of Web 2.0 Here are some of the characteristics of such collaborative tools. Multiple editor access Same/different time editing Revision tracking Collaborative communication Update notification
