This document provides a list of activities, tips, and resources for the end of the school year. It suggests getting students active with GoNoodle brain breaks or Wii boxing. It also recommends having students reflect on the school year with digital scrapbooks, magazines, or thank you notes for teachers. Additional ideas include using Kahoot to create trivia games, exploring learning through Minecraft, and going on virtual field trips. The goal is to keep students engaged in learning through the summer.

Shifting to a Strength-Based Culture in SchoolsChris Wejr
If the keynote session focused on WHY we need to shift our lens to a strength-based approach in schools, this breakout session will focus on the HOW and WHAT of this shift. The following topics will be discussed:
- how to determine the strengths of our students and staff
ideas to move to a strength-based model in schools
- ways to honour and recognize the strengths of our students
moving from MY students to OUR students
- school-wide activities that build on the strengths of students and staff
- providing opportunities for collaboration and leadership in areas of strength
The session is designed for educators that want to create change beyond their classroom walls; participants will walk away with practical ideas that can start an immediate shift to a strength-based culture in their school.
A presentation given at Magazines West in Vancouver on June 17, 2011: How the National Post, Best Health, Today's Parent, Flare and BlogTO are using social media right.

Creating Great Analog Souvenirs for a Digital EraNurun
Slidedeck from Ryan Bigge’s March 11, 2013 talk at SXSW about analog souvenirs and physidigital objects:
“Online and offline worlds are now melting together. But life in the cloud lacks the permanence of paper, which is why we’re starting to lose significant emotional moments in the digital ether. In response, artists and brands are creating analog souvenirs. Learn how to convert fleeting texts and tweets into physidigital keepsakes through a mix of research, design thinking and creative inspiration.”

Learning How2Learn- Change- Rethink-Amplify
We live in a time and space when it is is truer than ever that "change is the only constant”.
What are some cultural shifts in our fast changing world, that have an impact on our own learning as educators and leaders? How do we adapt to this in a school environment? Can we dwell on our experience and degrees as educators and continue to stay relevant? Learning how to learn might be the most important skill we did not learn when we were in school.
Do you have to be a tech guru to be literate in a digital world? Or are the ones who are self- motivated, life-long learners and the ones who are accepting of and embracing change the ones flourishing in the modern world? We will take a look at the urgency of shifting school culture to a culture of learning how to learn. Let's talk about LEARNING, not technology!

Wrangling Big Data in a Small Tech EcosystemShalin Hai-Jew
This work summarizes an early endeavor to explore some big(gish) data from an LMS data portal from flat files. There are some patterns that are identifiable: file types that are most common on the LMS instance, the types of assignments given, time-based patterns for quizzes, types of third-party tool activations (based on LTI), typical computer device configurations for those touching the LMS, features of email conversations shared through the instance, and others. This work includes some creative applications of "survival analysis" (time-to-event analysis) and computational linguistic analysis to textual descriptions. The particular LMS instance is from Kansas State University's Canvas instance; Canvas is created by Instructure. Much is learnable from LMS data portal "flat files," but much is left unexploited, without going to a larger database.

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.
