15 Years After an OCR Suit: NC State’s Accessibility RefreshPatrick Loftus
In 1999, NC State University entered into a voluntary resolution resulting from three complaints filed from the Department of Education Office for Civil Rights (OCR). The resolution agreement resulted in the creation of a campus-wide IT accessibility policy, an accessibility coordinator position, and other essential accessibility resources that were relevant at the time.
But what does accessibility at NC State University look like 15 (actually 17) years later? After so much time, it would be easy to fall behind or fail to maintain the established accessibility standards.
In this session, Grey Reavis (University IT Accessibility Coordinator) and Rebecca Sitton (Assistive Technology Coordinator) will look at how they are creating a proactive strategy to address the current risk areas on campus.
Topics will include:
The history of accessibility at NC State
The OCR complaints and the major initiatives that came out of them
NC State's risk assessment process and current initiatives
How awareness of OCR complaints influences campus climate and changes
NC State's campus-wide accessibility policy
Faculty training
Working to make accessibility a proactive priority on campus

The Road to EIT Accessibility at Four Colleges: A Centralized Approach3Play Media
In 2015, the Five College consortium in Western Massachusetts created a new shared position to better address the growing challenges associated with campus-wide Electronic and Information Technology (EIT) accessibility at four private colleges.
As the new EIT Accessibility Coordinator for Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith Colleges, Rob Eveleigh has worked with the schools to develop and implement parallel and collaborative campus-wide EIT accessibility solutions.
In this webinar, Rob will share the successes, challenges, and lessons learned in the concurrent development of four EIT Accessibility programs across the colleges he coordinates.
Topics will include:
Developing individual and centralized goals for EIT accessibility across four colleges
Parallel and collaborative solutions for multi-campus college EIT accessibility programs
Strategies for getting administrative buy-in for accessibility
EIT Accessibility rubrics and guidelines
Lessons learned in the first year of a shared EIT Accessibility Coordinator position
According to the newest concepts, thanks to the Internet, our work and social life have been radically transformed, as well as have changed our instruction scheme. Technology is now a guiding principle in modern education. Do we forget about the human touch?
Moreover, this progress in technology not only puts an emotional impact on the users who directly have access to information, but also generates countless access to education around the world.
Teaching resources are now reachable virtually to everyone very often for no fee.
Does existing know-how use the human touch or education has just become a technical structure?

Skills and strategies for higher education in the Corona AgeMJ Xavier
Corona has come as a blessing for higher education as it has facilitated the digital transformation of many institutions. It has also made the teacher tech-savvy.
The original Baseline was developed after wide consultation on best UCL practice and was endorsed by Academic Committee in September 2011. The Baseline is reviewed annually and the 2016 version is a product of merging the UCL Moodle Baseline with the Student Minimum Entitlement to On-Line Support from the Institute of Education.
The E-Learning Baseline covers two levels of e-learning use:
- Baseline (for campus-based courses 1).
- Baseline+ (in addition to the Baseline, for wholly online courses).
For each of the ten categories there is a description of what is needed to meet the requirements for both levels.

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.
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.

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”.
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.

We like to talk to students about how they present themselves online, as this is becoming more and more important to your employability.
A lot of employers look online to find extra information about potential employees now, and most report they have made some decisions about who to employ based on what they found – whether it was a positive or a negative decision.
Some people call the information you put on line your ‘digital tattoo’ – because you cannot necessarily remove it all. Information gets copied and saved by companies who can benefit from it, other people can put information online about you too. So you have some control, but it is limited.
We’re going to talk a little bit about how you can take control of what people will find out about you online.
Example – Paris Brown UK Youth Crime Commissioner – Daily Mail – Tweets. Can happen – some papers like to bad mouth the NHS.
So that’s one side of this. The other side is presenting yourself well – e.g. LinkedIn.
First of all, have a search for your name online.
Search using a major search engine like Google, using quotation marks for the best results.
There are other search engines that are designed to help you search for people like pipl.com.
And if you really want to look deeply at your online reputation there are these other sites, but they are probably of more use to celebrities.
It is worth searching after the session, we’ve had students do this and find old photos they’d put on Myspace years ago which wouldn’t be appropriate for their new career as a teacher.
You might also want to take control of what people find when they search for you by setting up a page that you can direct people to. LinkedIn is a career focussed social networking site. You can set up what is basically an online profile/CV, and connect with other people in your area of work.
This is what your profile might look like on there.
Find a professional looking photo of yourself, and keep your activity on there work focused.
Laura has mentioned that you will be creating an ePortfolio, and this is something that you could also use to show off your learning.
Keep an eye out for online communities full of people in your profession where you can support each other.
However the NMC has a code regarding all uses of social networking sites – “The code states that nurses and midwives must "uphold the reputation of your profession at all times" (NMC 2008), while students must "uphold the reputation of your chosen profession at all times" (NMC 2009a). This means that conduct online and conduct in the real world should be judged in the same way, and should be at a similar high standard. Nurses and midwives will put their registration at risk, and students may jeopardise their ability to join our register, if they:”
The NHS have a confidentiality policy - http://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/conf-policy-1.pdf - They note that “Person-identifiable information is anything that contains the means to identify a person, e.g. name, address, postcode, date of birth, NHS number, National Insurance number etc. Even a visual image (e.g. photograph) is sufficient to identify an individual. Any data or combination of data and other information, which can indirectly identify the person, will also fall into this definition. “
We use social networks to talk to our friends in the same way we’d talk to them face-to-face – but in reality we have to be more careful because online the whole world can overhear you. Lots of people have got into trouble as they have forgotten this.
Remember jokes and comments can lose their meaning online, also people on your course might not know you as well as your friends.
If you are having a discussion online – keep posts short and encourage others into the conversation.
More formal – not for sharing like Facebook
Respect – It’s about learning together, and less about winning arguments.
