This talk was presented at Barcamp Blackpool 3 and introduced a basic teaching methodology before attendees then learnt and taught simple strategy games.
This document outlines the objectives and approach of DesignProjects, an industrial design coaching program. The key objectives are to develop students' creativity, passion for design, and independence. Coaches provide guidance through design projects, feedback, and tracking progress across 12 competencies including ideas, technology, usability, aesthetics, and self-assessment. Coaches are available for help and challenges but will not design for students or limit their progress. The goal is for students to take responsibility for their own development through self-reflection.
This tutorial introduces the concept of lifelong learning and habits of successful lifelong learners. It defines learning and provides examples of lifelong learning. It then outlines 7 1/2 habits exhibited by successful lifelong learners, including beginning with the end in mind, taking responsibility for your own learning, viewing problems as challenges, having confidence as a learner, creating a learning toolbox, using technology to your advantage, teaching others, and making time for fun. It encourages the user to develop a personal learning contract to set goals.
This document discusses reflection and learning journals. It defines a reflection and learning journal as a written record of one's reflective learning journey that helps process and deepen learning. The document explains that reflection turns experiences into insights and that the combination of action/experience and reflection leads to learning. It presents a model where action/experience leads to reflection, which leads to new learning and then application of that new learning. Finally, it discusses how to use a reflection and learning journal by writing thoughts and insights in response to questions and explains that journals will be reviewed during the program to facilitate reflection and peer learning.
Teacher-led discussions can maximize student learning by getting students to think more deeply about a topic and share new ideas. While discussions provide an interesting and inclusive way for students to assess their knowledge in an informal manner, they run the risk of limited participation if not properly structured or if the difficulty level is not appropriate for the age group. When done effectively through open-ended questioning, discussions can challenge students and help them learn in a more collaborative way compared to working in isolation.
This document discusses coaching skills, what coaching is and is not, principles of coaching, benefits of coaching, and a 5W1H approach to coaching. Coaching uses listening, questions, and reflection to help coachees find their own answers, assumes the coachee has the knowledge and skills to solve problems, and increases self-awareness, accountability, and organizational morale. Coaching is not the same as mentoring and assumes the coach does not have superior knowledge or experience.
The document discusses different active learning techniques that can be used in teaching including warm ups using pre-prepared signs to get students moving, Library Bingo using colored cards to review information sources, and TV Games-Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? using response systems like clickers to add competition and assess understanding. These techniques are intended to increase student engagement by making learning more interactive and breaking up long periods of lecture with movement and games.
This document discusses various concepts related to learning, including:
1) Different learning styles and levels of competence when acquiring new skills, from unconscious incompetence to unconscious competence.
2) Factors that aid memory like primacy, recency, and frequency of exposure to material.
3) NLP principles that can help learning, such as reframing failures as feedback and modeling successful people.
4) The importance of using multiple senses and blending approaches for optimal learning.
The document discusses various active learning techniques that can be used in library instruction, including discussion, peer tutoring, case-based learning, incidental learning through games, simulation-based learning, and learning through reflection. It also argues that humor can be an effective way to engage and motivate students when integrated into teaching, providing examples of humorous content like jokes, questions, comics, and audio clips. Instructors are advised to practice and integrate new methods slowly while remembering their audience and being themselves.

The Roots of Education
“Every school you see – public or private, religious or secular – is a visible reminder of the religion of Jesus Christ. So is every college and university.” Dr. James Kennedy and Jerry Newcombe document in their “What If Jesus Had Never Been Born?” book that the phenomenon of education for the masses has its roots in Christianity.
The pursuit of the knowledge of God in a systematic, philosophical and in depth way gave rise to the phenomenon of universities all around the world. It was the Christian faith that gave rise to the idea of higher learning.
Julie Bernstein has experience as a student, teacher, and parent that has shaped her progressive educational philosophy. She believes in experiential, student-driven learning and addressing social justice and equity concerns. Her experiences teaching in various school settings, from urban public schools to homeschooling her own child, have reinforced her views that one size does not fit all students and that standardized testing and curricula constrain teachers' ability to meet students' unique needs.

#IFCLA2014 keynote 'Open internet and Open access to law'Chris Marsden
Net neutrality has evolved in the past 4 months from a regulatory edict that was overcome by the US Appeal Court 14 January 14 decision in Verizon v. FCC 740 F.3d 623 (2014), to a strong European law passed at First Reading by the outgoing Parliament on 3 April 2014. Chris Marsden is author of the first legal research treatise on the subject Net Neutrality: Towards a Co-Regulatory Solution (January 2010, 2nd edition due 2016) and advisor to several governments and international organisations on net neutrality. He will explain what is in the new European law, contrast it with the FCC regulatory proceedings and case law, and identify a solution to the legislative and regulatory logjams on both sides of the Atlantic. The solution needs to both satisfy consumer advocates that access to the open Internet will constantly increase in quality, as well as satisfying service provider demands for adequate incentives to invest in high-speed lanes, known as ‘Specialised Services’. He will also speak about open access to the law. There is a strong connection between open access to the Internet and to the law. Without an adequate Internet connection in the office, at home and on the move, it does not matter how good a legal app is. Marsden will analyse the increasing tendency towards providing wider access to legislation, case law and commentary by governments, publishers and law firms. There are several European projects funded by the European Commission DG Justice such as www.openlaws.eu and EUCases, as well as national projects such as #goodlaw and legislation.gov.uk, that are making use of the Internet to provide a much richer experience in ‘mashing up’ existing databases for lawyers to tailor to their (and their clients’) needs. His analysis of open access to law is based on his forthcoming article in Computers & Law, and forms part of a two-year ongoing multinational research project.

Case study of a VTS session with children from a Montessori Nursery at South Shields Museum & Art Gallery.
1) Propositional logic uses propositions that can be resolved as true or false and operators like NOT, AND, and OR to combine propositions.
2) Truth tables express all combinations of inputs to determine if a proposition is a tautology (always true) or contradiction (always false).
3) Equivalent propositions have the same truth values and De Morgan's laws can be used to transform expressions.
4) Some logical operators are "lazy" and short-circuit evaluation to improve efficiency by reducing unnecessary computations.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
