Each tool is described, noting features like being web-based, storing references, formatting citations and bibliographies, and whether they are free or cost money. Pros and cons of each are listed. A comparison chart of features is mentioned. RefWorks and EndNote are described as citation tools while Zotero and Mendeley include citation management as one feature among others like research sharing and discovery. Questions about choosing a citation manager are welcomed.
The document summarizes issues facing adult education faculty, who are predominantly adjuncts, and discusses possible solutions. It notes that over 90% of adult education faculty are adjuncts. It then outlines common problems for adjuncts, such as low pay, limited hours and benefits, and poor working conditions. The document proposes several solutions, including getting involved in relevant organizations, unions, and committees to advocate for better conditions and have a stronger voice. It also suggests improving teaching quality through ongoing professional development and adapting to change to make oneself a stronger candidate for full-time jobs.
This document summarizes an ESL vocational program developed at Elgin Community College. The program aimed to improve completion rates for adult education students in career and technical education programs. It used a cohort model with curriculum developed to match ESL support courses to vocational content. Challenges included gaining institutional support, identifying faculty, and navigating prerequisites. Successes included developing employer partnerships, highlighting the welding program during a visit by the Lieutenant Governor, and positive outcomes for students who completed the program and found jobs in their field.
This document discusses using Google Docs in the classroom. It outlines how to set up shared documents, spreadsheets, forms and presentations for student collaboration. Key benefits include accessibility from any device, continuous saving, and revision history. The document provides step-by-step instructions and examples of classroom projects using each tool, such as collaborative writing, surveys, and vocabulary presentations. While Google Docs lacks some features of other programs, it enables active learning through shared work in the cloud.

This is a presentation I made through CETL at Elgin Community College in the spring of 2011. It deals with teaching alphabetics and fluency to intermediate reading students.
Vocabulary and comprehension techniques powerpoint presentation v2Marcia Luptak
ย
This document discusses techniques for improving vocabulary and reading comprehension. It outlines four key components of reading: vocabulary, assessment of vocabulary knowledge, problems with traditional vocabulary instruction strategies, and comprehension. For vocabulary, it emphasizes explicit instruction of academic words using multiple exposures and examples. It also discusses strategies for assessing comprehension like summarization, questioning, and teaching students to identify text structures. The goal is to help students relate ideas, monitor understanding, and integrate information from what they read.
The document provides an agenda for an ITBE Spring Conference on February 13, 2011. It lists over 30 activities and games that will take place at the conference, including complete the sentence, sorting and matching, picture stories, surveys, odd one out, making predictions, comparisons, and various board games. It also includes materials to support some of the activities, such as cards with questions and answers about personal information, adjectives and nouns, and a class survey with short answers.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
ย
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

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.
