The document discusses the changing nature of literacy and reading comprehension in the digital age. It makes three key points:
1. The Internet is now the defining technology for reading, literacy and learning for this generation. It requires additional online reading comprehension skills that differ from offline reading.
2. Recent research developed a model of Internet Reciprocal Teaching to explicitly teach online reading comprehension skills through problem-based learning.
3. Current policies around standards, assessments and access risk widening achievement gaps by not adequately supporting the development of online reading comprehension skills.

Ranking the Criteria of Quality Evaluation for Intellectual Information on In...IJITE
Recent past has witnessed the fast use of the information and communication technology in the ever
developing field of education. Enormous information is brought to the classroom for easy access by the
learner anywhere in the world. Learners of today are distinguished by their proficiency in use of
technology to know about assessment and successful management of informational opportunities. Critical
analysis of existing education scenario emphasizes the introduction of major thrust areas as Information
Communication Technology, literacy, organization of curriculum, and others. This is to elevate the
standard of education and disseminate the information in shortest time with use of online and offline
resources through internet. These are for professional growth, teaching support materials and other
classroom related activities. The research work and true knowledge of topics calls for the need to evaluate
the information provided on the internet. The present paper caters to this need, especially in context to
intellectual information available on the internet. The research work in this paper is accomplished by
selecting a system of quality criteria and defining in terms of internet usage for intellectual purpose.
Several questions are designed to assess each criterion and as a result an instrument is developed and
validated in the form of a questionnaire. The quality criteria taken into consideration are as Content,
Objective reasoning, Scope, Authority; these are further classified into indicators for easy assessment.
The collected data has been tabulated and analysed to rank the criteria as per their preference for quality
assessment of the intellectual information available on the internet. The results indicate that authority is
the most preferred criteria while objective reasoning is the least preferred one as per their calculated
mean values.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.

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.
