This document summarizes key findings from a study that used multimodal journaling to examine how university instructors develop and enact academic curricula. It finds that curriculum work involves tracing, rewriting, and sharing texts from various sources to develop professional identities. Instructors personalize texts for students and their own contexts. Curricula are distributed and ephemeral, challenging distinctions between authorship and readership. Text transformations in curriculum design are sites of authorship and negotiation. Curriculum work involves academic identity work through engagement with texts over spaces and times.

This document summarizes a study that used sociomaterial analysis to examine students' use of technology. The researchers conducted surveys, focus groups, and multimodal journaling with students to understand their digital practices. Three orientations towards technology emerged: curation, where students carefully organized digital resources; combat, where students reluctantly adopted technologies due to social pressures; and coping, involving pragmatic workarounds used in resource-constrained environments. The study challenges notions of digital literacy as a set of skills and instead frames it as situated socio-technical practices that are distributed across humans and technology.

An Urgency Of Teachers The Work Of Critical Digital PedagogyMelinda Watson
This document summarizes three key ideas from the book "An Urgency of Teachers: The Work of Critical Digital Pedagogy" and their implications for teaching practices.
The three ideas are: 1) Start with humans by considering how digital tools shape boundaries and values in online spaces. 2) Integrate multiple epistemologies by acknowledging diverse ways of knowing and contextualized knowledge construction. 3) View assessment as a dialogic process rather than "policing" by inviting diverse student participation and flexible, meaningful learning. The document argues these principles of critical digital pedagogy are important for reconceptualizing online learning in a way that centers human relationships and agency.
Most of the research which investigates writing in university contexts focusses on student writing, and the social practices of writing as part of student learning. In this seminar we present selected findings from our research project (see http://wp.lancs.ac.uk/acadswriting/), which examines the writing of academics in three English universities. We have spent the last 18 months working closely with academics across different departments, universities, and disciplines, and used repeated interviews and observations of writing processes to explore their cultures of professional writing. Specifically for this seminar, we focus on elements of our data where our academic participants recall how they became acquainted with the demands and conventions of their professional writing; in short, how they learned to write as academics.
We outline the management of ongoing and ‘on the job’ learning to write, new challenges of collaboration and digitisation, developing strategies to cope with changes, and mastering an increasing diversity of genres and text-types.
We hope that this seminar will stimulate an important discussion about the choices academics make about their writing, and the most appropriate ways of approaching professional development for academics, both at the early career stage and throughout their professional lives.
The role of social presence in computer supported collaborative learning and ...johnroseadams1
The document discusses social presence in computer-supported collaborative learning environments. It describes various definitions and conceptualizations of social presence from literature. It then provides details about an online tutor training program for an English for Academic Purposes course delivered via a learning management system. The training aimed to familiarize tutors with the course environment and tools through experiential modeling. Analysis of tutor forum discussions and surveys found that the experiential modeling approach helped tutors understand how to project their social presence online and engage in social activities to build community.
The document discusses the importance of premise reflection in teaching and learning. Premise reflection involves critically examining the underlying assumptions and reasons for what is being taught before teaching it. This is presented as a more meaningful form of reflection than just reflecting on teaching methods after the fact. The document also discusses how learning is shaped by culture and that the cultural assumptions behind curricula should be interrogated. It provides examples of how some universities encourage students to see themselves as active researchers from the start of their studies.

Online work-based inquiry led learning provides benefits for learners including:
1) Conducting research projects within their workplace to directly apply their learning.
2) Participating in an online community provides peer support and focuses discussion on course content.
3) Using a "patchwork" approach including multimedia and reflection allows for personalized and relevant learning.
Borje Holmberg distance educaction
Scholarly theories imply a systematic ordering of ideas about the phenomena of our field of
inquiry and are usually of two kinds. One is concerned with understanding, the other
with explanation and prediction. Basically Moore’s and Peters’s theories are of the former
kind, mine of the second.
Peters regards distance education as an industrialised type of teaching and learning. He has
shown that it is characterised by rationalizing, division of work between several cooperating
people, mechanising, planning, organisation, production-line work, mass production etc. This
is his description and understanding of the didactic structure of distance education.
Moore regards transactional distance as the generally descriptive feature of distance
education, on the basis of which distance education functions. ’Transactional Distance is the
gap of understanding and communication between the teachers and learners caused by
geographic distance that must be bridged through distinctive procedures in instructional
design and the facilitation of ineraction’ (Moore & Kearsley 2005 p. 223). Here again we
have a theory attemping to describe and understand the concept of distance education.
My theory is of a different kind. It implies that the application of a methodological approach
- empathy-creating conversational style – leads to increased motivation to learn and better
results than conventional presentation of learning matter. This is a predictive theory that
generates intersubjectively testable hypotheses which can be – and have been - empirically
tested (Holmberg, B., Schuemer, R. & Obermeier 1982, and Holmberg, B. 2003)
This is not to say that Moore’s and Peters’s approaches are devoid of predictive elements or
that mine does not contribute to the understanding of distance education. Nevertheless it
places our theoretical approaches in their basic categories. These categories were, as far as I
know, first identified by Droysen in 1858 and later described by Wilhelm Dilthey (1833-
1911). Cf. Bollnow 1967.

The author intends to examine how each topic has impacted students, parents, and teachers, and how they are linked to changes in the No Child Left Behind Act. They hope to learn more about each area and their effects on both general and special education teachers.
The Connections Methodology Explained: Why We Do What We Do
The Connections methodology integrates a personalized and humane approach to education with the objectives of professional quality, celebrating diversity, and catalyzing new experiences to stimulate innovation in education. Their courses are based on evidence from educational research and neuroscience. They use a flipped classroom model, differentiate instruction, focus on visible thinking and writing, and see learning as a social construct. Their methodology includes mini-libraries of varied resources, discussion forums to apply concepts and build community, and synchronous class sessions for in-depth discussion.
CMC Teacher Education SIG Presentation; Hauck & WarneckeCmcTchrEdSIG
The document discusses social presence in online teacher education programs. It explores how social presence was developed through a tutor training program that used experiential modeling and exploratory practice approaches. Surveys and forum analysis found indicators of affective, interactive and cohesive social presence among tutors. Key findings were that the experiential modeling in the training was an effective approach, and social presence seems to outweigh cognitive density in forums, though roles and identities can shift depending on the context.
Epistemic fluency perspectives in teaching and learning practice: Learning to...Lina Markauskaite
Summary
Capacities to drive collective learning, address jointly complex practical challenges and create innovative solutions are seen essential for future graduates. How to prepare students to lead complex collaborative learning, change and innovation projects? How to assist them to develop knowledge and skills needed for resourceful teamwork with other people who have different expertises, experiences, and interests?
Systems, Change and Learning is a blended graduate course in the Maters of the Learning Sciences and Technology program that aims to develop students’ capacities to lead complex organisational learning and educational innovation projects. Rooted in systems theories, cybernetics and the learning sciences, this course: 1) introduces students to the theoretical approaches and methods for understanding complexity, facilitating individual learning and managing change, and 2) provides them with practical experiences to engage in systems inquiry and collaborative innovation design projects.
The course draws on the second-order pedagogy and grants students’ agency to design not only the innovation, but also their own learning and innovation process and environment. Students choose complex real life organisational learning or educational change challenges and, over the course of the semester, work in small innovation teams by analysing an encountered problematical situation, modelling possible scenarios and developing innovative solutions. As a result, each team creates a practical guide for Change and Innovation Managers who will be tasked with implementing the proposed innovation in an organisational setting.
The main emphasis is on fostering expansive learning and deliberative innovation culture trough cultivating systems thinking, design practice and responsive action. Through engaging in systemic inquiry, innovation design tasks and authentic teamwork, students develop a number of graduate attributes that are critical for joint learning and knowledge-informed, responsive action in modern workplaces, such as analytical and integrative thinking, effective teamwork, multidisciplinary and intercultural competencies.
Evaluations show that this course promotes deep student engagement and brings about transformative learning experiences. It is now offered as an elective in two other interdisciplinary masters programs.
This document provides an overview of the field of learning development in UK higher education. It discusses key concepts from academic literacies like positioning students, power dynamics, and third space. It also explores how learning development has progressed from supplementary to embedded approaches. Challenges around neoliberal influences are addressed, advocating for learning development principles of diversity, collaboration and education for the common good. The document references many important learning development scholars and resources.
1. Authoritarian - Strict obedience is required and parents demand it without explanation. Little
emotional support is given.
2. Permissive - Parents are very lenient and make few demands. They avoid discipline and do not
require mature behavior.
3. Authoritative - Parents are both demanding and responsive. They require mature behavior but are
also warm and supportive. Clear communication of expectations is provided.
4. Uninvolved - Parents are neither demanding nor responsive. They are emotionally detached and
do not actively engage with their children.
Using e portfolios for the professional development of teachers - copy[1]juliehughes
The document discusses the use of e-portfolios and blogging for teacher professional development and reflective practice. Key points include:
- Teachers found that sharing reflections in a blog within an e-portfolio space allowed them to feel safe to discuss experiences without criticism and see others' perspectives. This supported their growth as reflective writers and practitioners.
- E-portfolios allow students to reflect, answer each others' questions, and have discussions independent of the teacher, facilitating ongoing reflection in and on practice.
- E-portfolios are presented as a tool to support critical reflective practice in teacher training through dialogic pedagogies and tools like PebblePad.
The document discusses three popular approaches to leadership: situational leadership, transformational leadership, and charismatic leadership. Situational leadership involves tailoring one's leadership style to match the situation. Transformational leadership inspires followers to achieve extraordinary outcomes and change organizations. Charismatic leadership involves leaders who have a vision that inspires enthusiasm and inspires followers. Understanding these approaches helps leaders determine their own style and implement principles effectively.
This document discusses strategies for transforming schools into learning organizations. It distinguishes between reform, which works within an existing system, and transformation, which alters the underlying culture and structure to enable new innovations. The document advocates for a transformational approach to change in schools. It argues schools should shift their focus from teaching to co-learning, empowering students as knowledge producers. Connected learning through online networks and tools is presented as a way to support this transformation by connecting students to global knowledge and communities of learners.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Martin Oliver & Lesley Gourlay
Institute of Education, University of London
m.oliver@ioe.ac.uk; l.gourlay@ioe.ac.uk
2. Invisible work
This paper is, rather, about just seeing what is there
in our everyday lives. It is, if you will forgive me the
cliché, about making visible to myself (and you?) the
ways that we do/perform/narrate our lives in a
teaching context. It is about what my work looks like
and how bringing these features into view can help
me to understand better how it is that the
surveillances and regulations around me do their
work.
(Millen, 1997: 10)
4. The neglected curriculum
All around the world, higher education is expanding
rapidly, governments are mounting enquiries into higher
education, more institutions are involved in running
courses of study and more money is being spent on
higher education, not least by students themselves. And
yet, despite all this growth and debate, there is very little
talk about the curriculum. What students should be
experiencing is barely a topic for debate. What the
building blocks of their courses might be and how they
should be put together are even more absent from the
general discussion. The very idea of curriculum is pretty
well missing altogether.
(Barnett & Coate, 2005: 1)
6. Curricula identity
I think that course outlines are also forms of self-writing in
particular because it is through them that we can put a
personal stamp on the courses that we are teaching. […]
That is to say – if I am personally and sometimes,
passionately, involved in the politics of resistance – I
might claim the writing of my version of a feminist
analysis through my course outline. This claim to
authorship stamps the activity as a political moment in
schooling. It can help to reveal the embedded politics of
schooling on all levels as we begin to reveal the
authorship of these formal and detached looking texts. I
have yet to see someone use a strong personal and
continuous ‘I’ in a course outline, but it might be an
interesting experiment.
(Millen, 1997:23)
8. Curricula live in hearts and minds, it might be said;
more formally speaking, in intentions. But curricula
also live in educational structures (courses,
programmes, and the like), in educational concepts
and in institutional and disciplinary structures.
(Barnett & Coate, 2005: 151)
9. Immutable: forms and
structures
The first important consequence of becoming attentive to the
material traceability of immutable mobiles is to help us locate
what has been so important with the sociology of the social
from its inception. […] If the social sciences per-form the
social, then those forms have to be followed with just as much
care as the controversies. This is especially the case now that
we no longer run the risk of confusing such a study of
formalism with its formalist description. Forms have not ‘lost’
anything. They have not ‘forgotten’ any sort of
human, concrete, lived-in dimension. They are neither ‘cold’ nor
‘heartless’, nor are they devoid of a ‘human face’. Following the
making, the fine-tuning, the dissemination, and upkeep of
immutable mobiles will not for one second take us away from
the narrow galleries of practice.
(Latour, 2005: 226-227)
10. Text trajectories
We should not restrict the notion of context
to what happens in specific communicative
events. […] A lot of what we perform in the
way of meaning-attributing practices is the
post-hoc recontextualization of earlier bits of
text that were produced […] in a different
contextualization process, at a different time,
by different people, and for different
purposes.
(Blommaert 2005: 46, emphasis in original)
11. Text trajectories
Texts and discourses move around and are
recontextualised into new interpretative spaces
In these transitions they undergo significant changes
in meaning (Blommaert 2005, Ehrlich 2012)
Entextualisation, where talk is lifted out of
interactional setting and becomes text (e.g.
Silverstein & Urban 1996)
‘Modes and media of communication carry meanings
between streams and flows that make up the texture
of the contemporary world, and historically literacy is
one of the most important channels through which
meanings have crossed space and time’ (Kell 2006)
12. The intersection of
trajectories and identity
There were differences that I first became really
conscious of when I realised that in order to ingratiate
myself to those who had the power to hire me, I was
writing course outlines that I hoped pleased them. In one
instance I actually copied the structure of the co-
ordinator’s outline, including in each week a section
called ‘lecture’ which I rarely do – because she had done
it. When I let this cowardice and misrepresentation, this
lying, the fact that I was so-to-speak ‘running scared’,
sink in, I realised that there were many more questions to
ask about how we learn to do this activity.

Thematic analysis
17. It’s mostly sources that are coming from other
professional development courses that we work
on, whether they’re accredited or not accredited. And
they’re repurposed, I mean, a very small number of items
can just be repurposed, they can be left as they… as
they… as they are… as they are whole, and used
differently. Um, that’s a small number, most items are
edited, changed, worked into something
else, um, because this is, you know, a pretty unique
context that we’re working with. Um, so, yes, they do
have to become very bespoke for these particular
students, yes.

18. A document might be originated between myself and a
colleague because we are specially looking at one
activity or one bit of the module or something. So we
might generate that because that’s our background and
our knowledge. We’ll put it back and forth in a way that,
you know, is entirely conventional, through email
attachments. We’ll do things like track changes and
comments and stuff like that. Then when we’re happy
one of us will either upload it to Dropbox or, more usually,
will send it to [a co-ordinator] so that he’s got an
oversight immediately of everything that’s going on and
then he will send a notification to all the relevant people
that its gone into Dropbox ready to download as
appropriate.

20. I’ve had this, sort of, historically in like discussions with things like
Teachers TV […] a few years ago when the Teachers TV
producers were concerned that I was working on PGCE at that
time, why we weren’t using their programmes enough. Very high
quality, high production values and all the rest of it, why weren’t
we using their programmes enough? Great programmes in all
kinds of ways on our training programmes, new teachers. And it
was a really interesting debate about the problem that we had
about taking something which has been made for a specific other
purpose very well, or with a producer’s framing, the text maker’s
framing of what is valuable in it, trying to explain to them, well
actually all that I would want is about two minutes of film just
running in a classroom that you can take from and you can learn
so much from. I don’t want it framed, I don’t want it contextualised
by somebody else, you know, as a professional I want to be able
to make this work for my learners whether it’s a bit of film, whether
it’s a piece of written text a bit of research that I would pull out or
whatever it is.
(Louise)
22. I suppose people are developing bibliographies, um,
you know, as… in terms of their own professional
learning as part of doing the programmes.
(Louise)
Learning understood as familiarity with a growing
number of texts
23. What can I do to ensure that those three people are doing it in a
similar way and getting similar results so the students are getting a
similar experience. So, that's in effect what I was thinking through and
developing there. […] And at the heart of that there's a problem. At
the heart of that… and the problem is, um, a member of staff who's
not doing things in the way that I want them to be done. And
without… I don't want to go into that meeting and go, oi, you, you're
not doing it right, do it like this. It's about creating something within
that meeting that enables that member of staff to realise that maybe
there needs to be a shift or a change in that focus. […] That's one of
the reasons why I wanted to annotate those evaluations in a way that
was controlled and not publicly available because I wanted to choose
the bits that would enable me to create the case that I wanted to
create and put forward.
That makes me sound really manipulative.
(Gertrude)
26. A lot of that stuff has been based in the office.
Also, I think it's, um, sometimes I use the office as a
bit of a test because everything works at home and I
think, well, I'm not quite sure if, you know… and so I
use my computer in the office because I figure if it
works on there… It will work anywhere. It will work
in Outer Mongolia.
(Gertrude)
28. We need more effective proxies or ways of inscribing it I
think because what we’re doing is very much not
understood… very much not understood. I mean, both
among the, you know, within ourselves as a team
because the vast majority of the team is extremely
inexperienced in this way of working, extremely. […]
What are we actually doing? You know, and it’s… and it’s
always only ever going to be an approximation of it, but
even that is… could be really valuable
(Louise)
It just strikes me maybe there’s a sense in which actually
you don’t want to create texts around that part of the
process because you do just want to forget it and get on
with the other stuff
(Louise)
29. Conclusions
Tracing the materiality of curricula provides new insights – although
not all experiences are inscribed
Curriculum work is academic identity work, and involves knowing,
finding, rewriting, sharing and presenting texts
Rewriting texts involves ‘personalising’ them (for the tutor, for the
students); some texts are easier to rewrite than others
These texts support the development and extension of professional
identities – but also their constraint
Examples of the temporality and spatiality of curriculum work – the
cycles and rhythms of design, practice and redesign
Blurs common-sense distinctions between authorship and
readership, text and ‘user’, human and nonhuman actors
Non-fixed, ephemeral, distributed nature of curricula where apparent
stability is always provisional
Text transformations and entextualisation as potent sites of
engagement, authorship and contestation?
