This document discusses the importance of medical information specialists having strong teaching skills to effectively train doctors and students in literature searching. It summarizes the results of a survey of 14 medical library professionals regarding their search skills training. Key findings include: 1) Training varies from 7-10 hours but should be integrated throughout studies. 2) Most professionals have some pedagogical training but additional education could improve teaching quality. 3) International networking and developing teaching materials would help professionals strengthen their skills. Strong pedagogical abilities are crucial for information specialists to train end-users and represent their value to the medical field.
Many M.Ed. programs claim to incorporate signature pedagogies in their programs, which often include approaches such as inquiry-based, case-based, and problem-based learning, communities of learners, and more.
Teacher education is unique among disciplines in that we are doing what we are teaching. Metateaching has been defined as thinking about teaching (Timpson 1999), but if metacognition is thinking about thinking, and a meta-language is a language about languages, then metateaching is in fact teaching about teaching. If we combine this with notions of signature pedagogies and the idea that we should be modeling what we are teaching, then what does this mean at the graduate level?
It means that graduate instructors should themselves be modeling what they are teaching. Wouldn’t signature pedagogy in education be one that actually implements the theories and models being studied in order to teach those same theories and models? Shouldn’t it be one that employs experimental designs and invites the students (most of who are teachers) to examine the course design as it’s being taught? Wouldn’t it make sense to have the students have input into the design and/or teaching?
This presentation will examine the common approach to teaching graduate level education courses - the seminar - and suggest an alternate approach that uses the theories and models being taught and where the teaching methodology matches the kind of work the participants will do when they graduate.

Thesis Proposal: Reflective Abstraction in the Modern Day School CurriculumJacob Stotler
Research covering and supporting the use and allocation of pupil time for psychology. The reserved slot of time in the modern day classroom for pupils to spend psychologically reflecting, as Piaget termed "reflective abstraction." Brain training and building idealization from the use of abstraction thought and reflecting previously encountered lessons may advance students, increase cognitive capacity, and may enhance cognitive and academic performance.
Chalk and Talk Versus Classroom Flipping: Results of a Case Studyiosrjce
Economics instructors making use of ‘chalk and talk’ traditional method are experimenting with
intellectually stimulating teaching techniques in sync with visual, auditory and kinesthetic (VAK) and other
student learning styles thereby reorienting instruction to individual cognitive processes. It is hoped that there
would be more student engagement, interaction and success. Recent text books in economics provide scope for
trying out cutting edge techniques such as embedding more VAK components in instruction enabling ‘classroom
flipping’ instruction such that there is more critical thinking and hands-on ‘home-work’ done in class time,
more discussion and more independent learning, increasing the role of multimedia, case studies, and a
preoccupation with learning. The instructor is able to ascertain candidly and in real time what learning style is
securing desired learning outcomes with the student or what is not. A study of post-hoc data of student
outcomes of microeconomics courses that used classroom flipping showed student appreciation of teacher
efforts, but no significant improvement in results. There was not enough evidence to reject the hypothesis of
identical scores (P-value = 0.294493) for all four microeconomics classes, two of which had only ‘talk and
chalk’ and two others were fitted with computer assisted instruction to allow ‘classroom flipping.’ Overall,
larger sample sizes and more clinical precision in isolating the students’ course results could bring out
definitive if not different results, and perhaps better academic outcomes too, decreasing the gap between what is
taught and what is learnt.

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.

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.

Teaching methods and pedagogical models used? Integrating search skills training in the medical curriculum? Information retrieval training to practicing doctors? Proportion of search skills training in the work-time of information specialists? The knowledge of pedagogy and pedagogical skills? Attitude toward pedagogical education?
7. The amount of searchskillstraining and the timing in medicalstudies? The amount of search skills teaching during medical studies varies from 7 to 10 hours in Finland In Swedish Karolinska Institutet the amount is almost one week The trend toward distance learning courses is constantly increasing Informationretrievalcoursesareusuallyoffered at the beginning of medicalstudies The grantedcreditsvariedfrom 0.7 to 1.5 credits (ECTS) in basicmedicaleducation(onecreditequals 27 hours)

12. Knowledge of teachingtheories and pedagogicalmodels Some taught only by lecturing to largegroups There seems to be a tendency towards principles of problem-based learning (PBL) and working in small groups There should be a transfer from behaviorism to constructivism; from teacher-focusedteaching to student-focused teaching Students should actively take partin the learning process
13. Attitude of informationspecialiststowardpedagogicaleducation All but one of the respondents considered the pedagogical studies on practical level very important. The importance of pedagogical studies that can be directly applied to the teaching work was underlined A tailored course of teaching only for library professionals should be considered It was suggested that there should be a minimumrequirement of the studies in pedagogy in teaching library professionals’ qualification
14. EAHIL’spossiblerole in developingpedagogicalknowledge Networking with teaching colleagues was considered important.

17. Reflection and suggestions (2) Networking over professional boundaries (mecine specialists, medical teachers,decision-makers) is important. It is easier to integrate search skills training within basic medical studies in pedagogically a more reasonable way. It is necessary to create a collegial networkeven on international level. It enables aneasy way to follow the most recent trends of teaching methods EAHIL could start as soon as possible a circle around the pedagogical themes (discussion, literature, teaching material center)
18. Qualityassurance of activitiesstartsfrom the teacherherself/himself Pedagogical skills can be improved:- by studying pedagogy and reading good pedagogical literature- by learning from the feedbacks from colleagues and students- by using time for continuous reflection on own teaching activities- by assembling a training portfolio- by writing a teaching diary- having an open mind and courage for applying new pedagogical models in own work
