DigiReady: preparing learners for a digital workplace
Speakers:
Andrew Sprake, lecturer in physical education, University of Central Lancashire
Neesha Ridley, senior lecturer in midwifery, University of Central Lancashire
Chris Melia , senior learning technologist, University of Central Lancashire
It has never been more important to prepare our learners for the modern workplace, through equipping them with future facing, digital skills.
The University of Central Lancashire’s technology enabled learning and teaching (TELT) team have worked closely with the academic community to address this vital concern. They have identified digital skills demonstrated by students across numerous disciplines, which were not formally recognised but could aid their employability.
The approach has been to develop ‘DigiReady’, a new student certification which is underpinned by the Jisc digital capabilities framework.
Modernize your existing teaching materials through Office 365
Microsoft has partnered with the Education Bureau of Hong Kong (EDB) since 2004 to promote IT education, signing memorandums of understanding focused on empowering learning with technology. The latest partnership from 2013-2018 will provide $250 million globally to focus on areas like e-learning, mobile learning, and cloud computing. Microsoft Office 365 will be offered free to schools along with teacher training programs and digital content to empower students with learning activities and e-textbooks on any device anywhere.
Why education stakeholders must work together to achieve digital transformation
The document discusses the three critical components of digital transformation in education: conversion, collaboration, and curriculum. Conversion involves moving from legacy to mobile, cloud-based technologies. Collaboration means transitioning to project-based, team-oriented learning. Curriculum refers to moving from print to digital content that is accessible anytime, anywhere. All three components must work together and involve various stakeholders like teachers, students, administrators, and IT to ensure a successful digital transformation. Key questions and considerations are outlined for each component's implementation.
NAIT
The document discusses NAIT's examination of expanding its use of learning management systems. It recommends fully adopting Moodle by 2012 and integrating it with NAIT's digital curriculum database. It also recommends implementing this plan over four years while seeking collaboration opportunities with other institutions. The document provides implementation recommendations such as adopting alternate learning models and a multi-model approach to curriculum development.
Digitising Education : A case for AI and IoT
This slides gives a rudimentary idea of Indian education sector and proposes a high-level use case for AI and IoT devices to help resolve these issues.
What is the Intelligent Campus
The document discusses the intelligent campus project, which aims to improve the student experience by capturing and analyzing various data collected on university campuses. This includes physical data from sensors as well as academic and engagement data. The goals are to enable students to learn more effectively, optimize their environment and experience, and help institutions make more efficient use of facilities and resources. It is a long-term project that involves developing tools and infrastructure to support data gathering and analysis over time.
