Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.

2. The Next Generation
Science Standards are
student performance
expectations – NOT
curriculum.
6. The NGSS are
designed to prepare
students for college,
career, and citizenship.
4. The NGSS Focus on
Deeper Understanding
of Content as well as
Application of Content.
7. The NGSS and Common
Core State Standards
(English Language Arts
and Mathematics) are
Aligned.
7. Shifts in thinking about literacy
with KCAS Science Standards
Focus more attention on disciplinary practices
8. But let’s take a deeper look at the
identified practices, even the ones that
don’t explicitly mention argument,
reasoning, or talk.
2. Developing and using models
3. Planning and carrying out
investigations
In order to learn HOW to
model,
or analyze data,
or use appropriate tools,
students have to participate
in these practices, with
others.
10. Literacy Design Collaborative
• LDC Modules
• Use a structured framework to embed intentional skill building
in close reading, critical thinking, essential questioning and
effective writing.
• Not a program, not a curriculum but one strategy to implement
KCAS and shifts more greater rigor needed in classroom
instruction.
• LDC modules allow you to showcase:
•
•
•
•
Your expertise as a professional
Engagement and motivation in your classroom
Inquiry, research, collaboration and student choice
Student growth of your students as writers

13. Preparing for the task- close
reading
• In pairs, find The Atlantic article, “The
Coming Age of Space Colonization”
• Use sticky notes and highlighters to “mark
up the text”
• Your “look fors” places, people, events
where you have a question – what would
you like to explore further? What did you
find interesting, new or hard to believe?
14. Infographics
• “ students need not
only to do hands-on
science and talk and
write science in words;
they also need to draw,
tabulate, graph,
geometrize, and
algebrize science in all
possible combinations”
-Lemke
15. • Share-out your wonderings
– use chart paper to record
(assign a recorder)
• Share the prompt – now
what connections or links
can you make to the
upcoming writing
assignment?
• Post prompt in room for
reference during entire
module.
Will Mars be our next
home? After reading
the 4-6 informational
texts, write a science
journal article that
addresses the
question and support
your position with
evidence from the text
16. Reading Process Academic integrity
RATA – listening for how sources of information are
attributed (cited) in science writing
Highlight as I read the different ways of attributing
sources
Hand out “A Student’s Guide to ATTRIBUTIONS”
Hand out ARTICLE A Horse and healing
In pairs or small groups – using the question, select
the text where attributions would be helpful to a
reader.

Teaching with the new standards is about compacting and
connecting information rather than teaching in discrete silos
INTRODUCTIONI am not a science guru – but as the NGSS loomed large and as a visual person, I wanted to “see” a model unit and have teachers teach it and get feedback. My role at the dept afforded this opportunity and I wanted to share it with you.All material are available on my weebly site : kellyaclark.weebly.comI can be reached at KDE – information will be on last slide
Let’s start with the WHYSB 1 2009 set the stage for more rigorous standards-Enter the Common Core 2010 ELA and MATHIN ELA standards sectionfor Standards in History/Social studies/science and technical subjects – grades 6-12Currently KY is in process of adopting the NGSS grades K-12 (while the timeline for assessments have slowed down, the NGSS are in process of becoming the state science standards)More rigorous and has engineering, cross cutting concepts and practices EMBEDDED with literacy practices.These ideas are not new- the way they are presented and interwoven IS new and as such -demands new thinking about HOW we teach science ( and ELA and Math and Social studies –eventually)What do literacy and science have in common? You can’t read, write, communicate like a scientist without the literacy practices. Literacy is the vehicle with which you teach your content. Who better to teach science literacy than a science teacher?
Lingo- time to de bunk some mythsTaking all questions –Myth – that the ELA standards say teach all non fictionMyth- that there are no standards to teach plants and animals in scienceThat the standards are a national plot – See the three documents I have to take back – two from KDE and one about the Common Core as a whole.Combat mis-conceptions when you hear them-
OMG – where to startGet to know your Framework – the concepts behind the standardsStart small, begin to incorporate the practices into your lessons – a little at a time.Read and know the standards for your grade level –BEWARE THE CROSSWALK – BEWARE THE FOLDER- LESSON SWAPSpeed bumps on the way to NGSS – Sean ElkinsSeek advice from learning teams, district leadership and most importantly, your ELA neighbors and the library media specialist.
There are 7 conceptual shifts- want to draw your attention to these as they relate directly to literacya copy of Appendix A NGSS is attached in my weebly#2 Performance expectations clarify the expectations of what students will know and what they will be able to do at the end of the grade. They are culminating experiences in science which involve reading about science, questioning, discussing, viewing and recording conclusions.#4 Engaging students in the acquisition of new knowledge, becoming experts in the field by understanding core principals and theoretical constructs- using this information to make sense of a problem or develop solutions.#6 “Never before has our world been so complex and science knowledge so critical to making sense of it all” Teachers and textbooks no longer hold information, it is at their fingertips – it is our job to facilitate knowledge seeking (research) and models of how to make sense and use the information in productive ways.#7 “The three standards overlap in meaningful and substantive ways” Integration of learning, progression of ideas, connectedness like never before in education. Copy MS performance standards for unit 3 pages.Look at language of performance expectations- see the literacy involved? Analyze and interpret, construct and argument, construct a scientific explanation Give them standards in action sheet
Look at the two sided sheet- Practice 7 and Practice 8This Venn diagram illustrates beautifully how tightly woven ELA math and Science are Where are the overlaps- the connection points between content areas?This looks at the progression from K-12 of the science and engineering practices.If you a science person- what questions would you ask your ELA person?If you are an ELA person- what supports can you give the science teachers?What are some core practices that science teachers will need to adopt in order to facilitate this kind of learning?How will you teach students to meet these rigorous goals?
Lets focus on science now -Where do we see literacy (defined as reading, writing, observing, speaking and listening) in these practices?Where do we see sense making? Asking questions, defining problems, interpreting, constructing explanations, engaging in argument from evidence, evaluating, communicatingAre there overlaps?
This occurs primarily through talk, joint attention and shared activity
Three things:Change is hard- True change in practice takes timeHow to guide this change?Unit started with the idea of embedding trillions of literacy activities into a science unit as a guide for science teachersThe activities are from ell.stanford from an ELL focused unit called Understanding Language.Next goal was to have the students write an argumentative piece using the information they gathered during the unit.Used an LDC module as my template (hands up those familiar with LDC – extra slide in case)Also sprinkled in Scijourn – a science journalism process that replicates authentic science articles in the classroom.All three of these resources are on the resources list of the weebly.
These brave 8th grade science teachers are using this unit for something they call Martian Fridays – I will be touching in with them and their feedback will be the basis for revising the unit.I checked in early October – some quick discussion pointsClasses of all abilities LOVED discussing an essential question, really made them think- drove direction teachers went and teachers were able to discern misconceptions quicklyStudent motivation and engagement is high on Fridays – kids excitedUsed a collaborative idea gathering and gallery walk in reading and note taking, worked well.I gave them too much, they pulled pieces from the unit- on the negative side, feel that articles I found were too difficult, text complexity and authentic sources are difficult to find. They found two articles that worked on a lower lexile level.- planning for this was just as intensive and time consuming as a “regular” science lesson, did say this was unfamiliar and very intentional.
This unit covers MS and HS NGSS standards, Reading, writing, speaking and listening and writing standards which are listed in the unit.Each activity builds on student experiences with the text, intentional vocabulary work, summarizing information, talking to make meaning of reading. Paired photos is visual, Interpretation Circles utilizes ARTS Literacy from Brown and includes poetry, movement and speaking as a method of discovery about the topic.The LDC module was made on module creator -
Must teach through the text and not around it –Let the students struggle to find meaning ( this takes retraining for our students who “just want the right answer” but aren’t bothered to seek it out. You will need to intentionally scaffold the difference between Big L and little l Lemke saysScience literacy is how things happen and English literacy is what text meansLanguage of science is a hybrid: a natural language extended in meaning by mathematics embedded in a language of specialized actions which take place in a technological environment.The presence and need to READ graphical representations, charts, complex diagrams, graphs and infographics.Tell about study? Scijourn
Literacy is not about reading – it is about extracting what you need from data and communicating that successfully.
Teachers using the unit say they like to keep the idea of writing as a final product, as a direction they are moving toward as they work on unit over a longer period of time.
The key to connected thinking and accelerated student learning is to bundle and accomplish multiple standards while working through a topic.Death march through the contents or bullets – SB 1 said the new standards had to be fewer, deeper, clearer.Full implementation starts 14-15 – let’s use this year to get comfortable with the practices, start the process of re working and ramping up our lessons – optimal – ELA and Math did not have this timeline- implement and assess the same year.
Beware of boxed programs that say they are NGSS aligned- Right now- 7 states have adopted- the publishers and developers could not be aligned if they haven’t existed yet.
