Regardless of the content architecture (DITA, DocBook, Structured, Un-Structured, etc…) you should have a strategy around your content creation and production. But is your strategy working for you? Is it delivering what your customers are looking for? Can they find what they need? Do they actually enjoy using your content?
Looks at developing a product content strategy that comes from the outside (your customers side): A strategy that will not only keep your content consumers satisfied, but that will keep you modern and current even as technologies and consumers change over time.
These slides introduce the history and progress made on the Online Learning Orientation Tool, a product intended to teach students the soft skills needed to be successful in an online learning environment. The purpose of this presentation is to share the current state of the project and elicit feedback from audience members for continuous improvement.

Alle actuele lesinformatie op één centrale plek (itslearning Onderwijsdag 2015)itslearning Nederland
Roosters, huiswerk, lokaalwijzigingen, studiewijzers en verplaatste lessen. Leerlingen en docenten hebben dagelijks informatie nodig om te weten wanneer zij les hebben en wat zij moeten voorbereiden. De uitwisseling van gegevens tussen Zermelo en itslearning speelt hierbij een belangrijke rol. Dennis Hus gaf tijdens de itslearning Onderwijsdag 2015 meer informatie over de roosterintegratie en hoe u deze tot stand brengt. Aan de hand van praktische voorbeelden liet John Chantrel vervolgens zien hoe de roostermodule wordt gebruikt op het Beekdal Lyceum. U ziet hoe het rooster en –wijzigingen weergegeven worden in de agenda van itslearning, en hoe gemakkelijk en overzichtelijk huiswerk kan worden opgegeven aan leerlingen.

Docenten willen meer aansluiten op de individuele behoeften van leerlingen door rekening te houden met hun leertempo en –niveau. Door deze ontwikkeling wordt de vraag naar flexibel digitaal leermateriaal steeds groter. Zo’n 200 scholen in het voortgezet onderwijs verenigd in Stichting VO-content zorgen dat uitgeverijen Stercollecties - open digitale leerlijnen - ontwikkelen, onderhouden en actualiseren. Janneke van Doren vertelde tijdens deze presentatie op de itslearning Onderwijsdag 2015 meer over de mogelijkheden van VO-content en de eigenschappen van Stercollecties. Dicky van Berkel liet vervolgens zien hoe gemakkelijker het is om Stercollecties te integreren in itslearning en toe te passen in lessen. Arrangeer de leermiddelen bijvoorbeeld naar eigen inzicht of bied onderwijs op maat aan met leermateriaal op diverse niveaus.

Doordat itslearning de wereldwijde standaarden volgt voor het leveren van onderwijsproducten en –diensten koppelt het leerplatform probleemloos met andere ICT-systemen binnen onderwijsland. Integreer bijvoorbeeld data uit het schooladministratiesysteem, het roosterpakket, het schooldomein en/of de e-mailservice in het open leerplatform. Voor docenten en leerlingen ontstaat hierdoor één centrale plek voor al hun onderwijsgerelateerde informatie. Vincent Höfte en Tim Remmers gaven tijdens de itslearning Onderwijsdag 2015 inzicht in de mogelijkheden van diverse integraties en bespraken de technische implicaties.
Tijdens deze presentatie vertelt Rutger Tuller, Manager support en Local Product Manager bij itslearning Nederland, meer over de werking van de roostermodule en laat hij zien wat de voordelen van de module zijn voor uw school.
In deze presentatie laat Rutger Tuller zien hoe Directe Toegang er in het schooljaar 2015 - 2016 uit ziet met itslearning. Rutger Tuller studeerde Toegepaste Onderwijskunde aan de Universiteit Twente. Daarna werkte hij in het bedrijfsleven op het gebied van kennismanagement. Bij itslearning is hij manager support en zorgt hij er voor dat alle vragen zo snel en zo goed mogelijk beantwoord worden. Als local product manager probeert hij de ontwikkelingen in het Nederlandse onderwijs te koppelen aan de functionaliteit van itslearning.
Deze presentatie is gegeven door Tim Remmers, Directeur Services bij itslearning Nederland, tijdens de Masterclass Gepersonaliseerd Leren op 21 mei 2015.
De presentatie 'Differentiëren met Digitaal Lesmateriaal; klinkt goed, maar waar begin ik?!' is door itslearning Nederland gegeven tijdens de NOT2015.
Omgaan met verschillen en differentiatie staan bij veel scholen hoog op de agenda. Iedere leerling is anders en heeft daarom ook behoefte aan ander onderwijs. Standaard lesboeken bieden echter niet voor iedere leerling altijd de beste oplossing. Om verschillen tussen leerlingen in de klas op te vangen willen veel docenten graag verschillende digitale bronnen gebruiken ter aanvulling of vervanging van het bestaande lesmateriaal. Maar in de praktijk blijkt het uitvoeren vaak lastig - zeker voor drukbezette docenten die geen extra tijd kwijt willen zijn aan administratieve taken.
Tijdens deze presentatie geven wij u tips om gemakkelijk de eerste stappen te zetten naar gepersonaliseerd onderwijs. U leert bijvoorbeeld hoe u met digitale leermiddelen kunt differentiëren in het tempo, de leerstof, het werkniveau en de werkvorm om zodoende onderwijs op maat aan te bieden. De tips worden geïllustreerd met praktijkvoorbeelden in de digitale leeromgeving van itslearning - winnaar van de SIIA CODiE Award 2014 voor gepersonaliseerd leren – waar docenten met behulp van de splinternieuwe recommendation engine gemakkelijk digitaal lesmateriaal, huiswerk en toetsen kunnen aanbieden die passen bij de verschillende niveaus binnen één klas.
Of u nu klein wil beginnen, of grote veranderingen wil doorvoeren – iedere stap naar gepersonaliseerd leren helpt docenten het uitdagende onderwijs te geven dat past bij de leerlingen van nu.
Op 20 mei en 5 juni 2014 organiseerde itslearning Nederland de webinars 'Directe Toegang in het schooljaar 2014-2015'. Tijdens deze webinar is behandeld hoe digitaal lesmateriaal klaargezet kan worden en welke voorbereidingen daarvoor nodig zijn.
Formatieve toetsing: evalueren om te leren - itslearning onderwijsdag 2014itslearning Nederland
Formatieve toetsing: evalueren om te leren
Door Nadira Saab, eigenaar Zenith Education en universitair docente Onderwijskunde
In plaats van het leerresultaat achteraf te toetsen, worden de leerresultaten bij formatieve toetsing tijdens het leerproces verzameld. De sterke en zwakke punten van leerlingen worden hierdoor zichtbaar voor zowel leerlingen als docenten. Leerlingen weten zo waar zij nog aan moeten werken om de leerdoelen te bereiken en docenten kunnen hun onderwijs hierop aanpassen. Aan de hand van diverse voorbeelden koppelt Nadira praktische toepassingen met het itslearning leerplatform aan didactische inzichten.
Ouderbetrokkenheid 3.0
Door Roland Zuidema, Principal Consultant bij CPS en Bart van Luik, Onderwijskundig Adviseur bij itslearning Nederland
Onderzoek laat zien dat wanneer scholen een goede samenwerking hebben met ouders dit een positief effect heeft op de leerprestaties van leerlingen. Om scholen te ondersteunen bij het vormgeven van goede ouderbetrokkenheid heeft het CPS het concept Ouderbetrokkenheid 3.0 ontwikkeld. Hierbij wordt de focus verlegd van informeren naar samenwerken met ouders. Tijdens deze sessie leggen Roland en Bart het concept Ouderbetrokkenheid 3.0 uit en geven zij praktische tips om het nieuwe concept toe te passen met behulp van itslearning.
Deze presentatie is verzorgd tijdens de itslearning Onderwijsdag op 4 februari 2014.

Leerdoelen: De leerling in beeld - itslearning Onderwijsdag 2014itslearning Nederland
Leerdoelen: De leerling in beeld
Door Bart van Kimmenade, Global Product Manager Personal Learning & Pedagogy bij itslearning AS
Als docent wilt u het beste uit uw leerlingen halen, maar wanneer u meerdere klassen lesgeeft, kunt u persoonlijke sterktes en zwaktes al snel uit het oog verliezen. Met ‘leerdoelen’ – zoals competenties of eindtermen – in itslearning houdt u te allen tijde het overzicht. Bart geeft u inspirerende voorbeelden van het toepassen van leerdoelen in itslearning. Beoordeel bijvoorbeeld werkstukken of presentaties met rubric of laat leerlingen vragen beantwoorden in een toets, en meet onder water de ontwikkeling op de bijbehorende doelen. Laat itslearning vervolgens content aanbevelen voor de doelen die extra aandacht nodig hebben.

eLogin: SSO met AD FS
Door Vincent Höfte, Technisch Consultant bij itslearning Nederland, en Tim Remmers, Directeur Services bij itslearning Nederland
Single Sign-On (SSO) houdt in dat u slechts eenmalig hoeft in te loggen om automatisch toegang te krijgen tot gekoppelde applicaties binnen uw schoolnetwerk. Met de eLogin module van itslearning kunt u itslearning koppelen aan de Active Directory van uw school. Hierdoor kunnen leerlingen en docenten toegang krijgen tot itslearning op basis van hun naam en wachtwoord uit de Active Directory. Het wachtwoord voor itslearning vervalt hierdoor. Vincent en Tim presenteren de mogelijkheden van SSO in combinatie met itslearning en bespreken de technische implicaties ervan.
Deze presentatie is verzorgd tijdens de itslearning Onderwijsdag op 4 februari 2014.

Contactintensief onderwijs in een blended learning setting - Onderwijsdag 2013itslearning Nederland
Contactintensief onderwijs in een blended learning setting.
Door Jan Willem Lutgendorff en drs. A. (Arnolt) Stijf, Onderwijscoördinator bij Christelijke Hogeschool Ede.
Veranderende HBO-instroom en uiteenlopende studentprofielen leiden in toenemende mate tot verschillende studieroutes. Om dit optimaal te kunnen faciliteren is een diversiteit aan leerarrangementen noodzakelijk. Voor de HBO-opleiding(en) op de CHE zijn leergemeenschappen in itslearning ontwikkeld waarbij niet langer het aanbod van onderwijs, maar het leerproces van de lerende centraal staat. Verschillende studenten, vakdocenten en professionals uit het werkveld participeren tezamen in deze krachtige leeromgevingen waarin onderwijs zowel contactintensief als in een blended learning setting geboden wordt.
Deze presentatie is gegeven tijdens de itslearning en Teletop Onderwijsdag op 17 april 2013.
Vrijheid voor docenten werkt – ook in een traditionele omgeving.
Door Harry van Roekel, Beleidsmedewerker en Docent Nederlands bij Hendrik Pierson College.
Na het stempel ‘zwak’ van de Onderwijsinspectie is bij deze school het roer omgegaan. Harry van Roekel vertelt vanuit zijn ervaring als oud-schoolleider en Docent Nederlands hoe de traditionele top-down benadering voor het gebruik van ICT werd losgelaten en docenten veel vrijheid kregen om hun lessen voor de leerlingen aantrekkelijker te maken met moderne technologie. Ook laat hij enkele goede voorbeelden zien van hoe zijn collega’s nu itslearning gebruiken, hoe dat ervoor zorgt dat leerlingen van elkaar leren en wat het heeft losgemaakt bij de soms conservatief ingestelde ouders.

De leerling in beeld brengen en houden met ICT.
Door Henri Kortholt, Onderwijskundig Adviseur bij itslearning Nederland.
Onderwijs op maat aanbieden is alleen mogelijk als de school helder in beeld heeft waar iedere leerling nu staat, wat hij wel kan, wat hij niet kan en wat zijn doelen zijn. Tijdens deze sessie legt Katinka helder uit waarom het in beeld brengen en houden van de leerling van essentieel belang is. Daarnaast laat zij enkele handige hulpmiddelen in itslearning zien - zoals Toetsen met categorieën, Projecten en het ePortfolio - die u direct in de praktijk kunt inzetten.

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Background: Much of proven practice is described by Professor John Hattie at University of Auckland, New Zealand. He has done a large study on 800 meta-analyses of education research in the US, the UK and Australia covering more than 50,000 studies, and has used this to summarise proven practice in the field of education. Hattie’s analysis has resulted in a table of 138 different approaches to raise achievement in schools – and his main conclusion is that both teaching and learning must be visible for all stakeholders in order to have an effect. The illustration shows the front cover of his book “Visible learning: A synthesis of over 800 meta-analyses relating to achievement”.As a summary of our roadmap, here is a list of measures (or factor inputs) that contribute to an increased learning outcome.The list is put together based on different sources, and the conclusion is clear: What teachers and learners do matters.
itslearning is a learning platform and the purpose of our product is tosupport our customers’ educational practice.The development is inspired by proven practice, feedback from our users and our product principles. We have decided to focus on features that will improve the teaching and learning processes – and make a difference for students and teachers.The wheel is a simplified model, but it identifies important issues in the learning process. It can be viewed from both a macro and micro perspective. For example: Planning and measuring accomplishment of teaching in a semester and planning and measuring accomplishment in a single assignment.The teaching and learning processes and workflows in schools also include stakeholders other than teachers and students – such as parents, headteachers and other educational leaders. All stakeholders share a common goal: the success of the student!A major driver behind the development is user experience. The learning platform’s full potential can only be reached when all stakeholders experience the benefits of the platform, clearly see that it makes a difference in their daily work, and work together to solve any important problems and challenges.
This is how we plan the new skill mapping tool.
We will improve the current grade book with some of the good grade book features from ScolastanceWeaim to create more customizationoptions, makingthe grade book flexibleenough to be used for the French marketSpecific grade functionality and grade management required in the French marketwill be madecustom for the French market
Clear learning intentions and clear success criteria are identified as two of the most important ways to enhance learning outcome. To make learning visible, we want to help teachers and students answer two simple questions:- Where am I?- Where am I heading?When these questions are answered, teachers and students have to figure out: “How do I get there?”In order to enhance criteria-based assessment in itslearning, we plan to improve the learning objective repository in order to make it easier to measure learning in regards to the objectives. Assessment rubrics may be a tool in this process. What are assessment rubrics? A rubric is an assessment tool used to measure students' work. It is a scoring guide that seeks to evaluate a student's performance based on the sum of a full range of criteria rather than a single numerical score. A rubric is a working guide for students and teachers, usually handed out before the assignment begins in order to get students to think about the criteria on which their work will be judged.The rubrics can be used at different levels, for example at course level or on individual elements, such as assignments.
This is how we picture the rubric assessment solution.
Making teaching visible is also vital for a good result. Visual teaching occurs when learning is the explicit goal. If the teaching is visible for the students, they are more confident as to where they should be heading, and also know how to get there.User feedback has made us realise that the lesson planner can be made easier to use, so that’s one of the tasks this year.School hours will be added to the calendar. Why school hours in the calendar? The learning platform is not an office application. It is a school application and must relate to the school context.Last year we did quite a lot with the parent portal, and this year we’ll add more features. Most schools wants to involve the parents in the learning process, but parents need to know what the teaching is all about in order to be a helpful partner in the learning process. Our planned enhancements in the parent portal will empower parents to become important and supportive resources in the learning process.Homework and workload overview: Wedon’t have any design, butwe have identifiedsomeimportantissuesthatwewant to focus on.New tool: Reporting (see next slide).
According to a recent survey by itslearning, 71% of teachers feel that a secure internet ‘parent portal’, where parents could see details about their child's schooling, would improve school-to-parent communication.The survey, conducted by itslearning in March 2011, asked 5805 teachers from six different countries how they involve parents in education – and what could be done to improve parental engagement in school. Unsurprisingly, 75% of teachers rated parental engagement as either ‘important’ or ‘very important’ for the success of a child’s education.However, 44% said they would like to communicate with parents more, citing a lack of time or lack of communication channel as the reason that they didn’t involve parents more.
Introduction of a new report generator will help several stakeholders to gather information about the teaching and learning.We’ll work on reporting for all stakeholders, including school management. At the moment, we are in early planning stages and we cannot say anything more specific about it.We’ll also focus on better support for analysing data from reports.As many countries need reports that conform to national standards, we’ll make sure these standards are supported.Finally, custom reports may be made as part of the itslearning pedagogical service.
This example shows how a report may look. Here we see an advanced attendance analyser, with advanced sorting possibilities and different views.
A large part of a teacher’s workload is connected to assessment. In addition, teachers are the source of information about the students’ attendance, behaviour and attitudes. We realise that collecting this data takes up much of a teacher’s time, and so it is important for us to help teachers be efficient. Time saved in collecting and sharing data can be used on teaching and following up the students.How formalised this communication is varies, but most schools register this information and communicate it to students and teachers – either as an ongoing process or at the end of each semester.Most schools also need to store assessment data in other systems. We’ll add more export possibilities next year, including the ability to export attendance, behaviour and final assessments to different MISs.
Learning packagesplay a central role in schools, and handling learning packages is an important part of the learning platform.Schools use both self-made and external learning packages – and SCORM compliant packages are used a lot. SCORM is by now a rather old standard with obvious limitations. Development seems to be moving towards cloud-based resources and tools, and our APIs will be extended to handle this.Self-made material is getting increasingly popular, and we want to improve the sharing possibilities. The first step is to make the test tool available in the library, which means tests can be reused easier than ever before.
How does it work?The Test Mode Browser ‘locks-down’ the student’s computer while he takes a test. He can only see and work on the test during this time – and is unable to search the internet, open other files and programs or communicate with friends through a chat program. The student has to remain in test mode until he finishes the test and submits it for marking.
