iDo or iDon't ‐ Using Tablets in the Classroom - Course Technology Computing Conference
Presenter: Lucy Parker, California State University, Northridge
myCSUNtablet Initiative is a partnership of California State University, Northridge and Apple, Inc. that seeks to reduce the cost and increase the quality of learning materials for students. Participating students will use iPads and gain immediate access to e-books and related e-learning materials in a suite of courses in select majors. Participating faculty will receive an iPad and help from professional course designers who understand the relation among effective teaching, creative use of authoring tools, and accessible design. Why CSUN? The academic plans and IT Vision@2015 have anticipated a widening deployment of portable devices and cloud technology for teaching and learning. Faculty already are using such strategies to engage students with different styles and paces for learning. CSUN students are urban commuters, tech-savvy, and on tight budgets. Portability, cost control, and media-enriched content that can be personalized are their common expectations. Why Apple? Many companies make tablets; several produce and solicit applications but few have thought as holistically as Apple. They are sensitive to users’ preferences and have created a system that integrates devices, applications, authoring tools, repositories, and consultation. We at CSUN can benefit from progressive, coherent thinking as we re-think course design and delivery. Why now? At CSUN, the largest college has issued iPads to the faculty, as have departments in other colleges. The device has become the industry standard in nearby K-12 and helping professions, with whom we place interns and graduates. And the governor signaled in the budget an interest in supporting technological solutions for persistent problems in access, cost, and completion in higher education. Finally, the surge in hybrid courses and e-books that our faculty author indicates that CSUN has reached a tipping point for strategic change. An iPad-centric curriculum also offers some exciting possibilities to transform information delivery as well as student participation. Like all pedagogy, it can be a positive and even progressive form of education. Or not, depending on how the actual curriculum is designed and implemented. Professors need to change their archaic views on attention spans and realize that students and society in general are integrating the digital world into the real world. For better or worse, it’s inevitable and professors need to play along. This lecture will discuss TOP (10-20) iPad uses in the classrooms but also discusses concerns on standards of teaching and learning and if low-cost faculty-generated etextbooks are a real match to top quality publisher generated traditional books/ebooks.
Blackboard’s annual gathering of leading educators from Australia and New Zealand to discuss the future of learning and opportunities for higher education. Katie is deeply committed to leveraging Blackboard’s innovative technologies and services in order to partner with the global education community and enable student and institutional success. Blackboard’s core values of integrity, excellence, innovation and accountability resonate deeply with Katie.
Workshop: Setting the Foundations for an Iterative Course Evolution Model – A...Blackboard APAC
Elements of exemplary course design are well documented and readily accessible from various resources. Most notable are the Blackboard Exemplary Course Program (http://bit.ly/2jCURRd) and the Quality Matters Rubrics and Standards (http://bit.ly/2jdtwTG). While these are excellent resources that outlines the goals and standards to improve the learning experience of students in an online or blended course environment, workload associated with its deployment and management is difficult to evaluate.
With increasing strain on teaching and learning support teams within institutions, this exacerbates the challenge faced by instructors and academics of HOW to approach improving their courses in a scalable and manageable way.
This workshop will focus on facilitating participants in the development of a course evolution and management framework. The goal is to guide participants in establishing a unique set of foundations for course design, upon which iterative improvements can be planned and executed in a manageable manner. These can then be mapped against relevant Exemplary Course Design Rubric elements to create short-, mid-, and long-term milestones.

Meaningful Use: Getting the Most out of Your Digital Education Programdigedu
www.digedu.com
How do we bridge the gap between procuring devices and seeing truly meaningful use by students and teachers? We've reached a point in education where not just teaching models but also teaching tools are in flux - both the rules of the game and the equipment are changing with each day. This is a big shift for schools, teachers, and students, and in many cases, what's missing is the training and support necessary to meaningfully use technology in the classroom. Come away from this presentation with a new understanding of meaningful technology use and of what steps you can take to ensure students are getting the most out of your digital education program.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

student progress by standard?
Icon by http://thenounproject.com/imicons/
15. 4
• Districts implementing the common core should align
lessons, assignments and resources to standards
• Teachers need the ability to grade student assignments
using common core rubrics
• Grading with common core aligned rubrics makes it
possible to create portfolios of student work by standard
How can you measure
student progress by standard?
16. 4
• A common core aligned workflow allows teachers to:
✓ Collaborate in the creation of content by standard
✓ Search for publicly available content by standard
✓ Use that content to supplement a lesson or share it with
students who need remediation
✓ Differentiate student work based on their performance in
specific standards
How can you measure
student progress by standard?
17. Never forget that teachers are at the center
of any iPad implementation
