FORGE: Enhancing eLearning and research in ICT through remote experimentationFORGE project
EDUCON'14 Conference presentation: This paper presents the FORGE initiative, which aims to transform the FIRE testbed facilities, already vital for European research, into a learning resource for higher education.
From an educational perspective this project aims at promoting the notion of \ac{srl} through the use of a federation of high-performance testbeds and at building unique learning paths based on the integration of a rich linked-data ontology.
Through FORGE, traditional online courses will be complemented with interactive laboratory courses.
It will also allow educators to efficiently create, use and re-use FIRE-based learning experiences through our tools and techniques. And, most importantly, FORGE will enable equity of access to the latest ICT systems and tools independent of location and at low cost, strengthening the culture of online experimentation tools and remote facilities.

Abstract | This paper presents the Forging Online
Education through FIRE (FORGE) initiative, which
aims to transform the Future Internet Research and
Experimentation (FIRE) testbed facilities, already vi-
tal for European research, into a learning resource for
higher education. From an educational perspective this
project aims at promoting the notion of Self-Regulated
Learning (SRL) through the use of a federation of high-
performance testbeds and at building unique learning
paths based on the integration of a rich linked-data on-
tology. Through FORGE, traditional online courses will
be complemented with interactive laboratory courses.
It will also allow educators to eciently create, use and
re-use FIRE-based learning experiences through our
tools and techniques. And, most importantly, FORGE
will enable equity of access to the latest ICT systems
and tools independent of location and at low cost,
strengthening the culture of online experimentation
tools and remote facilities.

Virtualizing testbed resources to enable remote experimentation in online tel...FORGE project
EDUCON'15 Conference: In this paper we present an approach towards empowering online telecommunications engineering education by enabling hands-on remote experimentation over Trinity College Dublin's wireless testbed. Moreover, in order to offer a flexible testbed, capable of fulfilling the different and particular requirements of experimenters, we have created a framework that allows the virtualization of our testbed resources to create experimentation units to be used by remote experimenters/learners. Furthermore, we present the FORGEBox framework that offers an environment and resources to create online material capable to access the virtualized and physical testbed resources for incorporating experimentation into HTML-based online educational material.
FORGE brochure
Forging Online Education through FIRE (FORGE) is a project bringing the FIRE and eLearning worlds together. FORGE will align FIRE (Future Internet Research and Experimentation) with the ongoing education revolution. This project will specify development methodologies and best practices for offering FIRE experimentation facilities to learners and to the learning community in general. FORGE relates to communications and IT, as well as to other disciplines including the physical and social sciences. It will lead to a strong connection between the learning community and existing FIRE platforms and supporting tools.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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.
