Effective Online Communication and PresentationIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave to student teachers at Ningbo Polytechnic on effective online presentation and communication skills. I decided to broaden the presentation out a bit to talk about effective teaching online.
Presentation from one of the keynote presentations from the iMoot2013.
I Moodle, they Moodle, we all Moodle together!
A focus on Learning with Moodle.
Those of us at the iMoot know Moodle. We are probably already sold on what it can do and the benefits to education.
However, for everyday teachers who use Moodle because their organisation provides it, the term Moodle is often used as a noun - a title for a system that can be used to store content and has a wide range of features to support learning (but are not necessarily used).
This keynote looks at Moodle as a verb instead of a noun. Not the verb to ‘meander or tinker away with something’ but as a ‘doing word’ to use in the same context as the term ‘to learn’. We will look at how we can structure Moodle activities for learning rather than content and look at how we promote it to others so that it does get used for learning.
The presentation will show practical examples to illustrate some good (and not so good) practice.
eLene4Life: Active Learning for Soft Skills - University-Business Connections...Deborah Arnold
Presentation given at the EDEN Annual Conference 2019 in Bruges. Results and comparative analysis of transnational reports on active learning for soft skills development in higher education and the corporate sector. eLene4Life is supported by the European Union Erasmus+ programme under grant number 2018-1-FR01-KA203-047829
TLC2016 - Experiences and strategies used for implementing a portfolio didact...BlackboardEMEA
Presenters: Bo Lüders
Organisation: University College Southern Denmark (UC Syd)
Description: In this session we will present our experience with using Blackboard Portfolio on a fully 100 % online Teacher training education.
You will be introduced to how the portfolio became a key concept in the pedagogical thinking of the online course and how the portfolio gave educators a completely new and deeper insight in the learning of the students compared to students in traditional face-to-face education.
You will be given examples of the formative evaluation performed in the portfolio and will see examples of portfolios created by students. The portfolios will be in Danish but presenters will translate the structural elements so you can be inspired on the use of portfolios in Blackboard.
Foundations for sustaining learning-centered practicesStephen C. Ehrmann
Learning-centered practices such as learning communities, capstone courses, studio courses, ePortfolio initiatives and service learning have remained at the margins, sparkling and fading over the years. In addition to developing such practices directly, institutions of higher education need also to promote conditions that will allow learning-centered education to flourish and become the new normal. This presentation at the 2015 Lilly Conference in Bethesda MD outlined seven such foundations, ranging from specific kinds of leadership to specific kinds of support services. The session, lasting 75 minutes, was highly interactive and the slides include some notes taken during the session, in blue.
Extended Microteaching (XMT) - Innovative Teaching Pedagogies for the New Normal Education System in India
Presented at the IEEE International Conference of E-learning, Bahrain.
This presentation forms part of the Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM)-project. This projects concerns a cooperation between ITS, ITB (both Indonesia) and TU Delft focusing on joint curriculum development
This project includes the use of open, online and blended education to support this process.
The presentation sketches the issues – for further discussions- to be taken into consideration when it comes to blended education (policy development, approach /priorities and planning) .
In this presentation I look at the underlying pedagogy for a professional learning course to teach eLearning Officers at The University of Hong Kong the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills to become instructional designers. The course design is critically discussed with respect to motivational issues.
Google Apps for Education (GAFE): Giving Students an eLearning SpaceIain Doherty
This presentation covers the use of Google Applications for Education (GAFE) to support student centered eLearning. Particular reference is made to collaborative learning, learning portfolios and personal learning networks.
Moodle in the World of MOOCs: What Might the Future Look Like?Iain Doherty
This is my keynote presentation for the 2013 iMoot. The presentation covers the role of Moodle - and by extension other Learning Management Systems - in a world of open teaching and learning.
Everything You Need To Know About MOOCs (Well Almost)Iain Doherty
HKU is currently looking at the MOOC space and this presentation provided colleagues at the University with an overview of what's happening with MOOCs.
My eLearning team delivered an afternoon workshop on creating engaging eLearning experiences. This PowerPoint provided a theoretical lens for the workshop. We built on this theory to deliver three more parts to the workshop: the Learning Management System, Cloud Services and Tablet Devices.
This is a presentation that I gave to the Hong Kong Vocational Training Council Learning and Teaching Steering Committee. I was asked to present on the Learning Management System, Education 3.0 and future directions in eLearning. I tied it all together by presenting Education 3.0 as the driver to change the past (LMS) into the future (open, mobile learning supported by learning analytics).
The Learning Management System: Adapt or DisappearIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave at the Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning. I argued that we need to re-think pedagogy and technology use and suggested that we need to conceive of the LMS as one system within a student's personal learning environment.
Hong Kong Knowledge Management SocietyIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave to the Hong Kong Knowledge Management Society. It is a high level look at the learning management system in higher education and the presentation makes the case for needing to focus on teaching and learning if eLearning is to be successful.
Leveraging Moodle for Engaging LearningIain Doherty
This is my keynote presentation for the inaugural Moodle Moot in Hong Kong. I argue that we need to re-think the role of the teacher and to put in place a teaching model that centres on the connect learning developing a personal network. I then argue that Moodle can support this approach to teaching.
This is a relatively straightforward presentation that I put together for a certificate course in instructional design. The presentation takes students through the five steps of the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) and references the steps to a learning site that I developed at The University of Auckland (https://www.fmhshub.auckland.ac.nz/).
Writing for Publishing in Technology Enhanced Learning ResearchIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave for the Write-TEL 2 (http://www.napiereducationexchange.com/pg/groups/12872/writetel-2/) writing workshop series. I provided a perspective on writing to get published in the area of technology enhanced learning. The basic thrust of the presentation is that good research naturally leads to a good research paper.
Enhancing the Undergraduate Experience Through A Collaborative Wiki Exercise ...Iain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave at the ICEL 2012 conference in Hong Kong. The presentation outlines a randomized control trial that examined the an intervention to have nursing students learn discipline specific terms through a collaborative wiki exercise.
Evaluating the Impact of an eLearning Strategy on the Quality of Teaching and...Iain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave at the CITE 2012 Research Symposium at The University of Hong Kong. Essentially the presentation makes a case for the need to look at learning experiences and learning outcomes in order to truly determine whether or not an eLearning strategy has been effective. In other words, Moodle generated data will not do the trick.
E-Learning in a Changing Landscape of Emerging Technologies and PedagogiesIain Doherty
This is the presentation that I gave at the Opening Plenary Panel of the 2012 CITE Research Symposium at The University of Hong Kong. I guess that my aim was to start people off thinking a little bit about how higher education has made use of technologies for teaching and learning. I also wanted to send a positive message about what might be done.
One of the requirements of my role at The University of Hong Kong is to keep abreast of what is happening in the eLearning world in order to advise senior management concerning eLearning trends that HKU might need to take into consideration. I made a start in this PowerPoint.
This is the PowerPoint from a presentation that I gave to the Faculty of Medicine at The University of Hong Kong. It is very similar to the presentation that I gave to the Faculty of Dentistry with the exception that there are examples of application used in medicine.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
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.

4. Learning Led and Technology Enabled
• Learning led and technology enabled means thinking
first of teaching and learning and then about use of
technology.
• Technologies should be employed in the service of
good teaching and learning.
• Start with a perceived challenge or an opportunity to
be realized and think about how the use of
technology can help to meet the challenge / help to
realize the opportunity.
4
6. Aligning Teaching with Technologies
• Technologies used to help students to achieve the
intended learning outcomes.
• Technologies used to enhance / enrich the teaching
and learning activities.
• Technologies used to enhance / enrich the
assessment activities.
• Technologies used to increase students digital
literacy
• Technologies used to develop e.g. collaboration skills
6
7. Engaging Students with Course Content
• Resources include not only content (digital media)
but also the tools that students will use when working
on a particular activity.
• When integrating digital media in your teaching,
consider that students should learn WITH not just
learning FROM digital media. This means that
learning activities must be authentic.
7
8. Engaging Students with Course Content
• Here are some specific roles that resources play in
learning:
– Generic information (e.g., case story, contextual
information for inquiry, technical data);
– Content knowledge information (e.g., notes,
presentations, a journal article);
– Cognitive tools (e.g., a model of a concept, a
simulation); and
– Analytical tools (e.g., a special purpose calculator)
8
9. Engaging Students with Course Content
• There are many functions in Moodle that can be
employed as part of a strategy to engage students
with course content:
– Documents
– Images
– Audio files
– Video files
– Simulations
– Interactive learning objects
9
10. Engaging Students With One Another
• When students engage with one another in learning
activities they are exposed to multiple perspectives.
• This expands and enriches the learning experience.
• Engaging with other students also helps students to
learn additional skills such as how to work in a group,
how to manage task allocations and how to
negotiate outcomes and how to
10
11. Engaging Students With One Another
• There are many functions in Moodle that can be
employed as part of a strategy to engage students
with one another:
– Blogs
– Wikis
– Forums
– Chat
– Workshops
11
12. Engaging Students with Assessment
Activities
• From a teaching perspective assessment is always
important because it is assessment that provides a
measure of whether or not students have achieved
the intended learning outcomes for any particular
course. From a student perspective assessment is
important because any particular assessment
determines whether or not the student is successful
in the course.
12
13. Engaging Students with Assessment
Activities
• However, assessment can also function in other
ways. For example, formative assessment carried out
during a course can be used to provide students with
an indication of their progress in the course.
Formative assessment also provides teachers with
an opportunity to provide constructive feedback.
Conceptually it is interesting to think in terms of
formative "feed-forward". That is, the purpose of
providing students with a perspective on their
learning is to help them improve in the future.
13
14. Engaging Students with Assessment
Activities
• There are many functions in Moodle that can be
employed as part of a strategy to engage students
with assessment activities:
– Quizzes
– Uploads
– Advanced Uploads
– Forums
– Wikis
14
15. Concluding Remarks
• When teaching and learning come first Moodle is a
powerful tool that can be employed to engage
students with course content, with one another and
with assessment activities.
• When this happens Moodle can be used to realize
teaching opportunities / overcome challenges in
teaching and learning.
