This document discusses four types of IT-based projects that can engage students in higher-order thinking: resource-based projects, simple creations, guided hypermedia projects, and web-based projects. Resource-based projects involve students finding their own information to address topics or problems provided by the teacher. Simple creations focus on developing creativity through brainstorming, judging ideas, and acting on ideas with flexibility. Guided hypermedia projects involve using multimedia tools like PowerPoint or creating multimedia presentations combining different media. Web-based projects involve students creating and posting web pages on given topics.
it is the students themselves who demonstrate higher thinking skills and creativity through such activities searching for information, organizing and synthesizing ideas, creating presentations, and the like.

Higher Order Thinking Skills Through IT-Based Projects. Students nowadays manifest higher order thinking skills through the utilization of technologies. In this presentation, the 4 IT- based projects will be discussed. Enjoy!
This presentation accompanies a webinar by Victor Ngobeni from Microsoft, South Africa. In the webinar Victor says, "“In this webinar, I would like to focus how Technology and Pedagogy mix as one of the units of the Teaching with Technology course, but I want to do this rather differently in a way of making it more interactive. I would like to make sure that the participants share strategies/ideas amongst each other of how they are able to “marry” the methods that they are using in the classroom with the relevant technology tools."
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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

Lesson 8 higher order thinking skills through it based project (ronnie naag)

2. In this lesson, we shall discuss four types of IT-based
projects which can effectively be used in order to engage
students in activities of a higher plane of thinking.
It is to be understood that these projects do not
address all of the thinking skills shown previously in
the Thinking Skills Framework. But these projects
represent constructivist project.
3. Key elements of a constructivist approach:
1. The teacher creating
the learning
environment.
Before any constructive
learning to happen, the
teacher must set up all the
necessary components for
the learning to run
smoothly and task-
oriented.
4. 2. The teacher giving
students the tool
After setting up
the classroom, the
teacher now gives the
necessary tools which
the learners can use
either individually or
collaboratively.
5. 3. The teacher
facilitating learning.
Since it is a
constructive way of
learning, the teacher must
act only as a facilitator.
But still, proper guidance
and supervision is needed
throughout the task.
6. Now let us see four
IT-based projects
conducive to develop
higher thinking skills
and creativity among
learners.
7. RESOURCE-BASED PROJECTS
The teacher steps
out of the traditional
role of being a context
expert and information
provider, and instead
lets the students find
their own facts and
information.
8. The general flows of events in resource-based
projects are:
1. The teacher determines the topic for the
examination of class.
2. The teacher presents the problem to the
class.
3. The students find information on the
problems/questions.
4 . Students organize their information in
response to the problems/questions.
9. TRADITIONAL AND RESOURCE-BASED LEARNING
Traditional learning model Resource-based learning model
Teacher is expert and
information provides
Teacher is a guide and facilitator
Textbook is key source of
information
Sources are varied(print, video.
Internet, etc.)
Focus on facts
Information is packaged
In neat parcels
Focus on learning inquiry, quest,
or discovery
The product is the be-all and
end-all of learning
Emphasis on process
Assessment is quantitative Assessment is quantitative and
qualitative.
10. SIMPLE CREATIONS
In developing
software, creativity as an
outcome should not be
equated with ingenuity or
high intelligence. Creating
is more consonant with
planning, making,
assembling, designing or
building.
11. Three kinds of skills/abilities:
Analyzing - distinguishing similarities
and differences and seeing the project
as a problem to be solved.
Synthesizing - making
spontaneous connections among
ideas, thus generating interesting
and new ideas.
Promoting - selling of new ideas
to allow the public to test the
ideas themselves.
12. The five key tasks to develop creativity:
1. Define the task- clarify the goals of the completed project to the
student.
2. Brainstorm- the students themselves will be allowed to generate
their own ideas on the project. Rather than shoot down ideas, the
teacher encourages ideas exchange.
3. Judge the ideas- the students themselves make an appraisal for or
against any idea. Only when students are completely off checked
should the teacher intervene.
4. Act- the students do their work with the teacher as a facilitator.
5. Adopt flexibility- the students should be allowed to shift gears and
not follow an action path rigidly.
13. GUIDED HYPERMEDIA PROJECTS
Hypermedia combines the concepts of hypertext
and multimedia to allow rich interaction between the
user and the material.
14. The production of self-made multimedia
projects can be approached into different ways:
1. Instructive tools- such as in the production by
students of a power point presentation of a selected
topic.
15. 1. Constructive tools- such as when students do a
multi-media presentation (with text, graphs, photos,
audio narration, interviews, video clips, etc.)
Ex. to simulate a television news show.
16. WEB-BASED PROJECTS
Students can be made to create and post
web pages on a given topic. But creating new
pages even a single web page, maybe too
sophisticated and time consuming for the
average student.
17. It should be said, however,
that posting of web pages in
the Internet allows the
students (now the web page
creator) a wider audience.
They can also be linked
with other related sites in
the Internet
