Using Student Blogs As Reflective Practice
The progression in the past decade of blogs from personal web journals to a platform for established professionals, corporations and writers has also created opportunities for education. This session looks at the use of blogs with graduate students at NJIT over the past two years as a method for regular student reflection on learning. Using either free services or commercial products, blogs offer the easiest method for students to publish online to a large audience without sophisticated web design skills. This allows them to focus on specific topics and on their knowledge construction. Built-in feedback tools allow teacher-to-student and peer-to-peer commentary. Though blogs can serve as e-portfolios, this project focused on writing concepts, publishing practices, intellectual property and digital design as a learning portfolio. This project will be incorporated into program competencies for students as reflective practitioners in addition to an established e-portfolio program.

1) Dogme classes focus on conversation-driven and emergent language rather than standardized exams, which allow little creativity and flexibility.
2) Exam classes have disadvantages like backwash effect, inflexible content, and artificial tasks, but can provide valid proficiency levels and skills applicable outside class.
3) Conversation-driven activities aim to relax students and build rapport to support language learning through discussion and scaffolding rather than exam practice.
4) Materials-light approaches address emergent needs through minimal resources and adapting activities based on student difficulties.

It also presents the idea of incorporating phonology lessons on topics like weak forms, connected speech, and teaching diphthongs. The key message is to choose audio that both the teacher and students will find interesting and enjoyable.

Lizzie Pinnard
The document discusses how teachers can encourage language acquisition outside of the classroom. It recommends that teachers (1) encourage experimentation by having learners set goals for independent language practice, (2) provide resources for learners to practice on their own time, and (3) discuss learners' independent practice experiences in the classroom to maintain motivation. The goal is for teachers to act as enablers who facilitate additional language learning outside of instruction time through goal-setting, providing resources, and bringing the independent work back into class discussions.

Captain Redbeard tells a story to learners about finding treasure from a chest and using it to buy a new pirate ship. Co-constructing the story worked well because the learners were actively involved, had some control, and there was a clear reason for them to listen and participate while the storyteller could react to them. Alternatives suggested letting learners decide more of the story or certain aspects of it.

Six things
The document discusses six key topics that were covered at the IATEFL 2014 conference. The topics included how technology can be both terrific and terrifying for language teaching, the importance of evidence in the field, whether experience alone constitutes evidence, stereotypical schoolroom approaches, desirable developments in teaching methods, and making lesson observations beneficial rather than adversarial for teachers.
Sandy Millin
The document outlines 5 ways to raise one's professional profile: 1) Get involved in professional development activities at school, 2) Get involved in local professional organizations, 3) Join national professional organizations, 4) Publish or present at international conferences, and 5) Maintain an active online presence through blogging or social media. The document provides tips on raising one's profile through involvement at various levels from local to international in order to advance one's career.
Anthony Ash
This document proposes using alternative charades instead of drilling for young language learners. It defines drilling as listening to a model and repeating what is heard, and discusses different types of drilling. The author suggests using charades to practice grammatical chunks and question-answer pairs as an engaging alternative to traditional drilling methods. The document concludes by inviting questions and providing contact information.
Emily Lee
This document outlines a 4-week course called "Taming the Wolf" which aims to help teachers and parents understand and work with children who have behavioral and emotional difficulties (BESD). The course consists of 4 online live sessions that will cover: understanding the nature of BESD and how it affects children and families; adapting one's perspective and reactions as a teacher; practical approaches to taming challenging behaviors through emotion expression, breaking barriers, and classroom nurturing; and success stories. Participants will also complete forum tasks over the 4 weeks. The course is intended for anyone seeking to help children with special needs.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
