Edgar Dale was an American educator who made significant contributions to audiovisual instruction. He wrote a paper in 1933 on how to effectively create a high school film appreciation class. Throughout his career, Dale held teaching positions in North Dakota and Illinois. He developed the Cone of Experience in 1946 to describe various learning experiences and how much information people typically retain from different types of experiences. Dale received several awards over his career for his contributions to education and audiovisual instruction.
During Eyebeam Art + Technology Digital Day Camp 2011, twenty NYC teens spent three weeks working under the
guidance of a team of creative mentors to produce a series of deep, media-rich stories
about our NYC neighborhoods. Their stories became part of a web-based, interactive
map that included photographs, drawings, videos, music, games, words, infographics,
etc — limited only by imagination.

Rolling Role Roundtable - Water Reckoning Project (slideshare version)Sue Davis
At IDIERI 7 Pam Bowell proposed the initiation of an international collaboration that would focus on using Heathcote’s strategies (including one called ‘Rolling Role’) and digital communications and platforms. The concept was to create a drama involving young people from several different countries in responding to the same dramatic stimulus or pre-text, with the drama culminating at the Heathcote Reconsidered conference.
The concept of Rolling Role is to involve different groups or classes in building a community that then faces some kind of change. The initiators create a common context and agree to the key features, affairs and concerns of the community. The students/children are then involved in building the community, the lives, events and artefacts of it and add to developments. Work is often left incomplete so another group can take it forward and continue the drama. Heathcote suggested this work lends it self to sharing through something like a website.
This roundtable will focus on the development of the dramatic frame and pre-text. It will identify the implications for creating work within contemporary school systems and the affordances as well as issues which emerge from working with digital technologies in these contexts.

Rolling Role Roundtable - Research and Reflections from The Water Reckoning P...Sue Davis
The Water Reckoning project was initiated to involve young people, teachers and academics in a creative project which drew on Dorothy Heathcote’s philosophy and strategies. Together the groups have co-constructed a story that responds to a common pre-text. Educational and research sites have been involved from Australia, Greece, Singapore, the USA and the UK. This project has focused on exploring ideas that relate to the UN Year of Water Cooperation in keeping with Heathcote’s concern for using drama to raise awareness about human understanding and experience. For her drama had to be about things ‘that mattered’. Our drama has explored how humans cooperate to share and manage water and deal with situations such as drought or extreme weather events. Research has explored the nature of learnings and understandings that have emerged for participants from the process, including cross-cultural awareness and attitudes towards sustainability issues.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
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.

Editor's Notes
INCLUDING A METHODOLOGY FOR ANALYZING THE CONTENT OF MOTION PICTURES.
THIS PAPER HAS BEEN NOTED FOR HAVING A VERY DIFFERENT VIEW OF ADOLESCENT INTERACTION WITH FILMS THAN THAT TAKEN BY THE FILM CONTROL BOARDS OF THE TIME.
the "Cone of Learning," it purports to inform viewers of how much people remember based on how they encounter information.
Dale included no numbers and did not base his cone on scientific research, and he also warned readers not to take the cone too seriously
, the Cone shows the progression of experiences from the most concrete (at the bottom of the cone) to the most abstract (at the top of the cone). It is important to note that Dale never intended the Cone to depict a value judgment of experiences; in other words, his argument was not that more concrete experiences were better than more abstract ones. Dale believed that any and all of the approaches could and should be used, depending on the needs of the learner.
