Data Stories: Using Narratives to Reflect on a Data Purchase Pilot ProgramNASIG
Anita Foster and Gene R. Springs, presenters
The Ohio State University Libraries, driven by campus demand, developed and implemented a data resource purchase pilot program that took place over one fiscal year. Having previously only prioritized the purchasing of subject-related data resources on a small scale, this initiative included large data resources, most of which can meet the research and teaching needs of a variety of academic disciplines. Beginning the pilot with very few criteria for selection and potential acquisition, the Collections Strategist and Electronic Resources Officer encountered various challenges along with way, each requiring additional exploration, research, and eventual resolution. As the pilot program proceeded, other criteria emerged as important considerations when examining data resources, particularly for content and licensing.
To best develop an understanding of what was learned over the year of this pilot program, the Collections Strategist and Electronic Resources Officer collaborated in writing "data stories," or narratives about each of the data resource options investigated for acquisition. Each narrative is structured similarly, from the requestor and initial stated need through the end result. Any pertinent details regarding content, access, or licensing were incorporated to complete the narratives. The data stories will be further analyzed to track commonalities among both the successful and unsuccessful acquisitions, with the proposed outcome of developing tested criteria for future acquisition of data resources.

Assignment 2: Fink Step 3
Due Week 7 and worth 200 points
For this assignment, you will look at the technology you have integrated into your unit/training and develop ways to assess student performance when they use those technologies.
Often, educators find a great new technology or app to use with their students but then have no idea how to evaluate if it is actually helping students learn. Or, educators find that grading student performance using the new technology is cumbersome and doesn’t actually save any time or provide any value.
For example, if students have an assignment to create a PowerPoint presentation, how will they submit it to you? How will you check to make sure they didn’t just copy it from someplace on the Internet? If students are working on a group project, how can you assess student contributions? These are some issues you will need to think about when you apply technology to your lessons.
First, provide a brief (1-2 pages) description of the specific education technology you intend to incorporate into your unit/training. Include links to the product or app and describe how the students will use it. You do not need to provide specific lesson plans, but need to demonstrate that you have a clear idea of what you want the students to use and how they will use it.
For example, if you were to start using MS Office in the classroom, you could describe how you would allow students to type their papers using MS Word and create presentations using MS PowerPoint instead of hand-writing papers and doing traditional poster projects.
Next, complete the questions for Step 3 of page 15 of Fink’s guide. Include the following information when you answer each question in the worksheet. You will have to copy each question to a new Word document in order to answer it.
1. Forward-looking Assessment: The key is that you have students work on real-world problems. Think about how they will apply the knowledge you are teaching as well as how they will use the technology in the future. How can you create assessments such as a class project, portfolio assignment, a case-study, or other activity where they apply their knowledge?
2. Criteria & Standards: Think about what qualifies as poor work that does not meet your standards, satisfactory work that does meet your standards, and excellent work that exceeds your standards. Be specific. Look at your assignment rubrics for examples of this.
3. Self-Assessment: Students should have some idea of how they are doing without having to ask the teacher or instructor. How will you help them evaluate their own work and learning as they work on their assignments?
4. “FIDeLity” Feedback: This will be the formal feedback that you will give to students as well as informal feedback you will give them as they work on their assignments and assessments.
It would be a good idea to use the information that you provided for the discussion questions in the following weeks. (Note: you are not expected to use all of it if ...

CAPPS 2011 Integrating Information Literacy in the CurriculumJulie Cavender
Information literacy may be referred to as critical thinking skills, research skills, 21st century skills, or lifelong learning. No matter what term is applied, information literacy is fundamental to making sense of the global explosion of information available today. This workshop concentrates on information literacy in the classroom and explores tools that integrate the library with the teaching and learning process. During this workshop, we will identify and review online resources that focus on fusing library and information skills with instructional technology and that aid individuals in obtaining digital literacy.

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.

this source answer?
◦ Is the intended audience appropriate for
academic research?
9. 9
Quality Evaluation
AUTHORITY:
Authority lets us know that someone with
expertise or experience in the topic is sharing their
knowledge. Remember, though, that authority is
contextual, the expertise or experience needs to
be relevant to the topic. Ask yourself:
◦ What credentials related to the topic at hand
does the author have?
◦ Does the author have any relevant affiliations
with a respected university or organization?

Quality Evaluation
ACCURACY
Determining the accuracy of a source ensures that you are
using information that is supported and free from errors.
Ask yourself:
◦ Does the source contain any false information or errors?
◦ Does the source use reputable sources to support the
claims made?
◦ Does this source align with other sources that discuss
this topic?
11. 11
Quality Evaluation
PURPOSE:
Sources may be written to entertain, inform,
persuade, or some other purpose. Ask yourself:
◦ Is this information clearly biased in one way or
another?
