This document summarizes an assessment project for a Careers Development Learning module that emphasized self-directed learning and innovative assessment. Formative assessments included practice interviews, assessment centers with guest speakers, and career workshops. Summative assessments consisted of a research project, self-assessment, personal development plan, job application, and reflection. Some challenges were resources, time, student anxiety, and technology support. Feedback was gathered through practical activities and student surveys found the career talks and guest speakers most useful. The conclusions were to utilize formative assessments for innovation, identify existing resources, and spread information about successful practices.

Vision 2017 was a collaboration between several Queensland library organizations to develop a strategy for library learning based on extensive statewide consultation. It identified key themes of libraries as connectors, technology trendsetters, incubators of ideas and creative community spaces. A training needs analysis found that library staff wanted more opportunities for learning but felt time poor and needing permission. Managers wanted staff with new skills like strategic planning and advocacy. The strategy prioritized a leadership program, innovation grants, and business workshops to support a culture of lifelong learning and higher order skills.

‘Actions speak louder than words’: co-delivering activity-based classes at MU...

Library Association of Ireland

In 2017, MU Library’s Teaching & Research Development team moved from a subject-based model of library support to a functional model, based around the core functions of our team i.e. Research Support; Academic Engagement; and Teaching & Learning. Central to this change was the development of a new teaching programme, to be multi-disciplinary and standardised in approach, and considering information literacy provision in its widest context. The teaching programme is mapped to MU Library’s Information Literacy Strategy Framework. Classes under the programme were first delivered in 2018. Our teaching programme focuses on activity-based classes to achieve the five IL competencies identified in our Framework. In our presentation, we will explain the context and background to our decision to move to a functional model, with reference to the University’s new undergraduate curriculum, which focuses on critical skills, offers students opportunities to engage in experiential learning, and provides a multi-disciplinary focus for student module choices. Aine will describe the process of creating a menu of class options with standardised lesson plans and content for our classes, and the pedagogical practice of student learning through active engagement. She will give examples of this work in practice, showcasing tools used (e.g. Mentimeter software) and activities undertaken, and talk about the successes and areas for learning arising from the classes. However, a key focus of our paper is to look at the practical aspect of class delivery and the benefits to co-delivery of these classes. How does this work in practice? Catherine will share her experience of co-delivering the classes, and describe her role, offering recommendations about successful delivery of activity-based classes. We hope conference attendees will find our session practical, thought-provoking and will be able to take away some ideas for similar classes in their library, in whichever sector.

This document summarizes a presentation about curriculum development at a new veterinary school. It discusses how teaching and learning have changed with more technology-enhanced methods like flipped classrooms and online tools. The presenter wanted the curriculum to be student-centered while considering factors that affect innovative delivery like motivation, time, and ability. They have trained staff, provided support, done observations, and reviewed feedback. Their experience with the learning platform Talis showed reading lists were adopted but engagement was poor, digitized content worked well but needed more awareness, and their pilot of project Lighthouse had initial technical issues but was quickly resolved although more staff buy-in is still needed.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP

RAHUL

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade. The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization, population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different 'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the land. The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover. Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface, providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and diverse human activities. Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns.
