eLearning Pioneers: Transforming Teaching and Learning In Saudia Arabia with ...Una Daly
The Open Education Consortium entered a partnership in 2015 with the National Center for e-Learning and Distance Education in Saudi Arabia to offer a year-long, comprehensive eLearning Pioneers Program. Motivations for forming this partnership included:
1. The Saudi Arabian Ministry of Education has a strong desire to expand access and enhance education through online and blended learning.
2. Saudi Arabian educators who want to teach online still face barriers due to assumptions that online teaching will be lower quality than traditional classroom teaching.
3. Cultural and religious restrictions on females can make online learning an attractive option for them.
4. Hosting institutions in the U.S. can benefit from having a cultural and information exchange with educators from another country.
The core of the program is built on sharing the principles of online learning in the U.S. and providing mentoring and internships to prepare female faculty and university leaders with skills in online and blending learning. Over forty participants from multiple universities and disciplines were nominated by their universities to learn and apply best online teaching techniques and practices and also interact in-person with U.S. faculty and administrators engaged in online learning at leading universities and colleges. Providing a strong foundation in eLearning tools and techniques, pedagogy, and learning theory the goal is for participants to bring back these new skills and strategies to better educate the Saudi population of girls and women.
Participants entered either a leadership or instructional cohort based on their university roles and mentoring, training, and summer internships were customized to support those roles.
Each participant developed a Personal Development Plan to capture their goals for the year-long program. These plans were reviewed with a mentor and updated throughout the year. Summer placements were provided at community colleges, state universities, and private colleges and universities in California, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.
We will share participant reflections on different phases of the program as they progressed from personal development planning to earning an online teaching certificate, interacting with faculty and staff at U.S. colleges and universities, to implementing the new ideas back home.

The bandwidth consuming “Journey through time” mapping application, running
on top of the the IaaS powered Federal Spatial Geodata Infrastructure
(FSDI), has been successfully launched on January 17th 2013 in the scope of
swisstopo’s 175th anniversary. It is allowing a journey through time between
1938 and today and can be used to answer questions like: What did Bern look
like in 1950, or how far did the Aletsch glacier reach 20 years ago? This brandnew
application generated an outgoing internet traffic of more than 1.3TB,
served 40 million map tiles to 30’000 visitors in half a day and was perfectly
running even during the emission of the ”Tagesschau” from January 18th
covering this topic. The talk explains how the cloud service Load Impact has
been used to optimally prepare the application for the expected big rush
during the official go-live.

Bonner Orientation at Carson Newman University is a week-long event where incoming Bonners are introduced to the program by current and/or graduated Bonners. During the process, they get familiar with the three fundamental pillars of the Bonner program at Carson-Newman: Campus, students, and community partners. The campus component involves a community tour, providing knowledge about Jefferson City, Carson-Newman Campus, and the Center for Community Engagement. Concerning the “Student” pillar, there are activities designed to facilitate reflection, self-exploration, and bonding with peers. Finally, orientation introduces new students to “Sites and Service” with a spectrum of events including cornerstone activities like site-speed dating and the opportunity to serve at about two to three different sites during their orientation week for an hour. After, they are allowed to reflect on their service formally. See the program/agenda below for more information:

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.

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.
