The document discusses expanding vocabulary for students. It notes that reading widely and exposure to rich oral language are strongly correlated with vocabulary size. It identifies five key aspects of vocabulary instruction: encouraging wide reading, exposing students to high-quality oral language, promoting word consciousness, directly teaching word meanings, and teaching independent word learning strategies. It also describes Beck's three tiers of vocabulary: tier one contains basic words, tier two contains more complex words typically taught directly, and tier three contains specialized words introduced when needed. The document provides examples of words from each tier.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job?
By David F. Larcker, Stephen A. Miles, and Brian Tayan
Stanford Closer Look Series
Overview:
Shareholders pay considerable attention to the choice of executive selected as the new CEO whenever a change in leadership takes place. However, without an inside look at the leading candidates to assume the CEO role, it is difficult for shareholders to tell whether the board has made the correct choice. In this Closer Look, we examine CEO succession events among the largest 100 companies over a ten-year period to determine what happens to the executives who were not selected (i.e., the “succession losers”) and how they perform relative to those who were selected (the “succession winners”).
We ask:
• Are the executives selected for the CEO role really better than those passed over?
• What are the implications for understanding the labor market for executive talent?
• Are differences in performance due to operating conditions or quality of available talent?
• Are boards better at identifying CEO talent than other research generally suggests?
This PowerPoint was made by Annette Guterres & Julia Starling.

What is Dialogic Reading?
Dialogic Reading allows the student to tell the story from the pictures in a book. They make predictions from the pictures before reading or interacting with the text.
They’re encouraged to ask questions and have conversations about the book based on their predictions. This leads to expanding a students vocabulary, analyzing different parts of the text, and deepening their understanding of the text.

Benefits of Dialogic Reading
Why is Dialogic Reading useful?
Well, it is a valuable tool for developing literacy skills. It models how good readers think and teaches learners to become better readers. It improves skills such as print awareness, oral language, and comprehension. Since it has dialogue around the text they are reading it allows students to explore the reading on a deeper level. This helps with a tremendous amount of literacy skills. By: Emily Alers
Benefits of Dialogic Reading
Interactive
For students of all ages
For students of all levels
Effective with both fiction and non-fiction texts
Student centred
Develops comprehension and understanding of what is being read.
Allows for children to grasp print awareness.

Benefits for Parents While doing Dialogic Reading With Children
Dialogic reading doesn’t only benefit children, but it also benefits the parents. This benefits parents too because it gives them the satisfaction of knowing that their child isn’t reading just to read, but is actually grasping an understanding of what they are reading. Reading comprehension is so important for children. As the get older they will begin to take test or even just general work where they read a passage and have to answer questions. If parents start dialogic reading at a young age, it will prepare them for the upcoming years of their life. Dialogic reading also allows for a healthy, positive parent child interaction. This will allow them to speak up and express how they feel and learn where they are academically rather than just relying on the teacher for everything. By: Emily Alers

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

1. Expanding Vocabulary By: Amber Schultz, Jennifer Zalar, Lauren Galvin, Shauna Kime, Amy VanDyke, and Allison Pickard
2. Quote by Pat Cunningham: “The number of words in your meaning vocabulary store is directly related to how much you read. Children who read the most have the biggest vocabularies. Children who read only when they are assigned something to read have smaller vocabularies.” Socioeconomic status also shows the same correlation.
3. 5 Key aspects of Vocabulary(Sedita, 2005) 1.) Encourage wide reading- Read, Read, Read! 2.) Expose students to high-quality oral language 3.) Promote word consciousness 4.) Teach word meaning directly 5.) Teach independent word-learning strategies, including the use of context clues, the use of word parts, and the efficient use of the dictionary Incorporate multimodalities!
4. Three Tiers of Vocabulary (Beck, 2002) Tier One- Basic Vocabulary that rarely requires direct instruction Sight words, nouns, verbs, adjectives, and early reading words There are about 8,000 word families in this tier Ex: book, girl, sad, run, dog, orange
5. Three Tiers of Vocabulary (Beck, 2002) Tier Two- High frequency words that occur in mature language situations such as adult conversation and literature Usually taught through direct instruction There are about 7,000 word families in this tier Ex: masterpiece, fortunate, industrious, measure, benevolent
6. Three Tiers of Vocabulary (Beck, 2002) Tier Three- low-frequency words that occur in specific domains These words are usually introduced when a specific need arises The remaining 400,000 words in English occur in this tier Ex: economics, isotope, asphalt, Revolutionary War, crepe
