Despite requirements for constant innovation in Higher Education, the application of
knowledge management constitutes a recent research field in this sector while a wide range of e-learning
tools - like open source learning management systems (LMS) - constitute a basic part of universities
infrastructures at present. As knowledge derived from direct experiences is one of the most important
sources for innovations, this paper presents two approaches for experiential knowledge production in the
Higher Education teaching-learning processes: (1) the managerial production approach and (2) the open
production approach. In accordance with these approaches, the paper also describes how Moodle and Sakai -
two of the most widely used open source LMS - support experiential knowledge production and concludes
that: (1) these LMS don’t have first class constructs to manage experiential knowledge production related
concepts; (2) experiential knowledge related constructs can be represented through existing artifacts included
in these LMS but this approach presents many limitations to support explicit connections between these
constructs and; (3) LMS can extend current capabilities of tags or similar artifacts to represent high level
meaning structures that link content from different LMS tools.

This webinar will provide two perspectives on OER policies and seek to answer some of the key questions related to Open Education and OER policies. The questions below will drive the session delivered by the presenters and form the basis of the discussion which follows.
Why have a policy?
What are the problems in developing a policy?
How do you get your teaching staff on board?
Did it require extra staff (as with MOOCs in some cases)?
What are the main elements of your policy? For example, is there was a minimum/maximum amount of OER that could be used e.g. only 50% could be made up from OER.
Have you had feedback from students about the policy?
Has there been feedback (good/bad) from students as a result?
What have been the key benefits of developing and having a policy?
The first presenter is Paul Bacsich from POERUP.

Open and flexible learning opportunities for all? Findings from the 2016 UCIS...RichardM_Walker
This presentation summarises the headline findings from the UCISA 2016 Survey of Technology Enhanced Learning, which tracks developments in the use of learning technologies across the UK higher education sector. In this year's Survey, special attention was directed to open learning activities, ranging from open course provision to badges and open accreditation methods for staff development. The Survey question-set also addressed learner analytics in greater depth than in past Surveys, with a focus on the different types of tool-sets which institutions are using and their deployment across courses. Respondents were invited to comment on how their institution is making use of analytics to evaluate the impact of TEL tools on the student learning experience and what this means for academic practice.

Pedagogical Design Applications in eLearning EnvironmentsRamesh C. Sharma
No other educational technology has ever captured the imagination and interest of educators around the world simultaneously than Internet and WWW. E-Learning has been the fastest growing sector in educational technology. Newer forms are being planned, designed and delivered with the wider availability of Internet access, mobile devices and eContent. MOOCs and Educational mobile apps are changing the very paradigm the eCourses have been offered. I would discuss pedagogical designs applied to the eLearning environments and creating authentic learning communities for sustainable learning.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.
