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.
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.

2. Student-teachers (STs) generally perceive an e-
portfolio in form of a CD-ROM
Static reflective statement/ Static content
Instructors cannot provide instant feedback
corresponding to a specific items
No interaction with other student-teachers
Learning experience in teacher training has not been
associated probably
No further e-portfolio development
Environmental issue (dispose over 400 CD-ROMs each
academic year)
3. IT provisions (previous practice):
Briefing for the assessment items of e-portfolios
Creating a Web site with commercial Web authoring
tools (hands-on) - academic years before 2008
Computer-based training (CBT) related to Web
authoring (self-directed study + in-campus)
4. Student-teachers (STs) are unable to update their e-
portfolios:
Time limit for the trial version of the commercial Web
authoring tool
Unable to master the basic HTML manipulation (with/
without the commercial Web authoring tool)
Unable to master the FTP functions
Unable to understand the server-side structures
5. Not all student-teachers process the technical skills to
create e-portfolios (Montgomery & Wiley, 2004)
Only a static Web-based e-portfolio is created (Yuen,
C.Y. & Yang, H., 2010)
Viewers cannot leave feedback (Yang, 2008)
6. By using blogs as e-portfolios
Reduce the technical setbacks for content creation
(Martindale & Wiley, 2005)
Allows publishing instantly to the Internet from any
Internet connection (Richardson, 2006)
More features for interactions and updatability
Share resources and ideas for reflection, interaction and
collaboration (Yuen & Yang, 2010)
7. Abandon teaching commercial Web authoring tools
Teaching hands-on with using free blog platform + build-in
blog features + embedding Web applications (Webapps)/
blog widgets/ Web 2.0 widgets for enhancing
communications
Language support (English/ Simplified Chinese/ Traditional
Chinese)
Blog posts
Blogroll/ RSS
Possible blog opportunities by using mobile devices
Video instructions support by creating a YouTube channel
(for self-directed learning and revision)
Distributing case studies of using blog in teaching and
learning
8. Blogfolio = Blog + Portfolio (Yuen, C.Y. & Yang, H., 2010)
Web-based portfolio for pre-service and in-service
teachers (Milman, 1999; Yates, Newsome, & Creighton, 1999; Pierson & Kumari,
2000; Avraamidou& Zembal-Saul, 2006; Campbell, Cignetti, Melenyzer, Nettles, &
Wyman, 2007) :
Reorganize
Re-evaluate
Reflect
Result in new insights

15. How do you (as a teacher) apply blogfolio for
knowledge construction?
I can also get more information in the fast developing world.
By creating or adding YouTube on the blogfolio.
Using blog as an interesting/ vivid platform for students and
teachers to exchange ideas after classes.
It is very useful for students to keep track on their learning process,
especially if they were absent (the classes before). Students can
download PowerPoint or worksheet at any time.
Teachers can collect feedback and amend their teaching content
and strategies.
16. How do you (as a teacher) apply blogfolio for
knowledge construction?
Share knowledge like PowerPoint and video with students.
Teachers can upload learning materials for students to download which
facilitate revision.
Teachers can upload extra materials (e.g. video clips/ news clips) for
students’ self-directed learning.
Remind students the key learning areas (especially for long vacation)
More opportunities to communicate with students about teaching and
learning
Embed different media
17. Why the selected element(s) could
enhance teacher-students
communication?
Discussion forum/ Blog post/ Poll/ Voting/ Survey
Can gather information/ comments from students
Students can post private or public messages
Teachers can better understand student's favourite, mood
and opinion
Understand students' needs
Important notes can be posted
18. Why the selected element(s) could
enhance teacher-students
communication?
Embedding instant messaging tool

20. Why the selected element(s) could
enhance teacher-students
communication?
Others
Teacher and student can share the information or teaching
materials at the same time
Interactivity
Students can raise ideas
Supplementary notes
As a medium for students expressing themselves
21. Student-teachers (STs) are basically satisfied with the user-friendliness
of the online Web site builder (i.e. Viviti.com) even though some of the
respondents are the first-time bloggers
STs also have the tendency to continue building up their knowledge as
well as using the builder for learning and teaching activities in the
future
STs enjoyed customisation of their own blogfolios with the introduced
Webapps which agreed with the founding by Tapscott (2009) in his
book about the habits of young people (i.e. the Net Gener). JISC (2008)
also highlighted that being able to customise is crucial for e-portfolio
construction
JISC (2008) also suggested that a customisable interface of an e-
portfolio system would enable learners to explore their identity. A
blogfolio is somewhat of a display of personalisation, with a certain
extent of customisation, enables learners to explore one’s identities.
