Unleashing the Power of Blended Learning.pptx
The whole aim of a learning process is to help the learner move from Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) to Zone of Achieved Development (ZAD). Most of us are aware of these terms from Lev Vygotsky's theory of learning and development. From unknowing to known, the distance between the current developmental level and potential development can be covered through guidance as per Lev Vygotsky’s theory.
But how do we know that this distance has been traversed by the learner?
The answer is performance assessment.

This document provides an overview of an e-learning planning framework for blended e-learning in Māori medium schools. It discusses the aims of illustrating what blended e-learning looks like, demonstrating the e-learning planning framework, and exploring the strengths and opportunities of their work. It explains that the framework is a self-review, planning, and evaluation tool to build e-learning capability among students, teachers, leaders, and communities by providing flexible access to learning anywhere and anytime. The blended e-learning project involves a consortium of companies working with schools and MOE offices to develop e-learning capabilities with a focus on raising achievement for priority groups.
Part1 ecompetencies
This document outlines goals and strategies for an exploration of effective e-learning pedagogy. It discusses motivating staff through ICT integration, sharing understanding of quality teaching with technology, and setting goals for the upcoming school term and beyond. Specific strategies are provided around electronic communication, maintaining an online class presence, facilitating cyber safety learning, using online resources to support te reo Māori, extending personal professional learning, leading learning through ICT, enhancing planning through collaboration, ensuring purposeful technology use, activating beyond-classroom connections, facilitating student-led use of ICT, responding to student interests with technology, understanding learning in a bicultural context, and using online tools to support data management.
Designing Exemplary Online Courses in Blackboard
During this presentation by Jason Rhode at the 12th annual SLATE Conference on 10/23/14, we explored suggested best practices included in the Blackboard Exemplary Course Program Rubric for designing engaging online courses. Jason shared practical tips from his experience building a course in Blackboard that meets the established ECP quality benchmarks. We also covered the steps and associated deadlines for faculty interested in submitting their course for consideration as a Blackboard Exemplary Course. This session was geared toward an audience already familiar with the basic online teaching tools available in Blackboard Learn. While the examples shared were specifically of courses in Blackboard, the principles can be applied to developing quality online courses in any learning management system. Links to resources shared are available at http://www.jasonrhode.com/exemplarycourse
Online Learning to Support Educators
Online professional development (PD) for educators provides flexibility, access to experts, opportunities for reflection, and potential cost savings. Effective online PD is interactive, personalized, and data-driven. It requires careful attention to design, facilitation, and building learning communities. Research shows online PD can improve teacher practice and student learning when developed using collaborative models and incorporating feedback over time. Choosing the right technologies and providing training are also important for success.

Cambodia
Phnom Penh has been Cambodia's capital since French colonization and is now the center of the nation's economic, industrial, security, political, cultural, and diplomatic activities. It sits along the Mekong, Tonle Sap, and Bassac Rivers and is home to over 2 million people out of Cambodia's total population of 14.8 million. The Silver Pagoda located in the Royal Palace contains over 5,000 silver tiles and Italian marble and is a notable Buddhist temple. Local markets sell fresh produce and families visit several times a day due to lack of electricity in most homes. Phnom Penh is mostly inhabited by Khmer people, though there are also Chinese, Vietnamese, and other small ethnic groups,

The document discusses that the only relevant 21st century skill is the ability to learn, as the specific skills learned in school will be obsolete by the time students enter the workforce. It states that students need to be produced who know how to respond appropriately to new situations they were not directly prepared for. The one competitive skill is being able to learn, and making the right response to issues outside of what was taught in school.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
