LTI in Action - Putting Reading Lists at the Heart of the Student Learning Experience at the University of Birmingham - Ann-Marie James | Talis Insight Europe 2016
The document summarizes the implementation of a new reading list tool called TARL at the University of Birmingham. It describes setting up the technical integration with the university's learning management system Canvas, getting feedback from early adopters, and plans to increase faculty adoption and integration of the reading lists into the broader student learning experience. Over 170 reading lists have been created so far with the online courses being highest users. Next steps include improving discoverability and integration of the lists.

CTC Retreat: Streaming Media & Digital Asset ManagementMorgon Haskell
Strategic planning for digital assets is a must when we look at the growth and scale of videos used for teaching and learning here at UNC-CH. Whit Andrews, from Gartner, does not believe that any single vendor has emerged as a Strong Positive due to several factors. As a result we have been studying the trends in video production and delivery here at UNC and nationwide in order to find a vendor dedicated to meeting the needs of higher education. During this presentation I would like to look at a few case studies for video usage, review the overall growth in media storage, and talk about why we chose MediaCore to pilot their streaming media platform.
This one hour webinar is aimed at everyone involved in providing video based services in higher education who is interested in how these services can be successfully implemented on a campus-wide basis. Issues that our speakers will discuss include how academics and students can be supported in creating their own video-based resources, how quality and production values are dealt with and the management of technical and human resources to support these types of services.

Surfing the Technological Tsunami A guide for 21st Century EducatorsSteve Williams
Many teachers need guidance about the overwhelming and rapid technological developments that are surrounding us at present. This is what that I presented at an International Teachers' Conference in Atlanta and then a Digital Schoolhouse Conference in Forsyth County, Georgia. It's still a work in progress and aims to point out interesting trends and developments for educators. The first few slides are from a very well-known presentation called "Did you know" by Karl Fisch. Most of the teachers I presented to at the time (early 2008), had not seen or heard of Karl's famous presentation.

MedCross Imaging - ULTRASOUND
Ultrasound imaging, also called ultrasound scanning or sonography, involves exposing part of the body to high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. Ultrasound exams do not use ionizing radiation (x-ray). Because ultrasound images are captured in real-time, they can show the structure and movement of the body’s internal organs, as well as blood flowing through blood vessels.
Ultrasound imaging is usually a painless medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. Conventional ultrasound displays the images in thin, flat sections of the body. A Doppler ultrasound study may be part of an ultrasound examination. Doppler ultrasound is a special ultrasound technique that evaluates blood as it flows through a blood vessel, including the body’s major arteries and veins in the abdomen, arms, legs and neck.

The Long Road from Reactive to Proactive: Developing an Accessibility Strategy3Play Media
Implementing accessibility policies in higher education is no easy task. For many, it is easy to get caught in a cycle of reactive accommodation where larger accessibility policies are never implemented. So how do you transition from reactive policies to proactive policies?
Korey Singleton, the Assistive Technology Initiative Manager at George Mason University, will walk you through their two-year process of moving from reactive solutions to proactive accessibility policies. His own experience with how difficult it can be to shift campus climate and administrative support towards proactive accessibility is incredibly useful for other universities struggling with the same thing. His detailed presentation will provide insight into how George Mason has overcome these challenges and developed a proactive approach to accessibility.
This webinar will cover:
- Collaborative strategies for campus-wide IT accessibility
- Strategies for getting faculty to use and create accessible material
- George Mason's accessibility policies & recent updates
- Workflow, collaboration, and policy recommendations
- Resources for accessibility training and testing
- Analysis of completed accessible media requests by fiscal year
In a world where knowing how to learn and monitor your own learning is more important than just knowing the facts, education and training is gravitating to more learning-centred approaches. Learning-centred environments support learners to not only have input into what is they need to learn, but they also help them determine how their work should be monitored and evaluated. In learning-centred practice, the monitoring of learner progress is no longer the sole responsibility of the teacher, but that of learner, their peers and their mentors through the use of online personal learning spaces or eportfolios (Brown, Chen & Gordon, 2012).

Evidence Based Practice – Aspiration vs Reality - Terry Young, Kate Mitchell ...ePortfolios Australia
Portfolios are an ideal medium to facilitate the collection of evidence of learning by students. Increasingly institutions are required to achieve accreditation of courses by reporting evidence of student learning to professional bodies. In this presentation, we will outline the methods by which La Trobe University, School of Education have shifted their teaching courses and assessment for AITSL in light of new requirements to include evidence-based practice. We will discuss the strategies and design methodologies we undertook as well as the real world challenges and issues we faced, and make links to lessons learned and how they could be applied to other fields.

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.

Background:
Myself what we’re going to cover
Today:
- Background, reading lists and VLEs at UB
Why the LTI integration with Canvas and TARL is so important to us
How we integrated
Impact this has had for us to date, and where we hope to go with this
Implemented Summer 2015
Open source Reading List system (developed in-house)
Book focussed
Relatively little use
Some persistent links created using Primo (rare)
Canvas (bought 2013, as replacement for webct)
Usually included reading lists created in Word
Occasionally persistent links created using Primo
Limitations
Lacking a single source, no integration bet. Systems, no single sign on, little take up
Went out to tender (Summer) – integration with canvas KEY
Canvas
Critical driver for the integration: widespread use throughout the institution.
Canvas use 2015: 1655818 (Shibboleth logins)
Canvas key part of the University’s Education strategy, and particularly Technology-Enhanced Learning workstream. TEL central hub and College teams supporting canvas.
We felt this was a critical route for mainstreaming ResourceLists (rather than it just being viewed as another library system)
One of the first things I did as PM was gather an Implementation group. Had representatives from a range of non-library divisions – IT (sys side, for integrations with aleph and primo/sfx), registry (module and student data), and crucially central elearning team.
One of the first things we did was develop a project plan, and we adapted the standard plan from Talis and included the integration with Canvas.
Critical for us to develop this – as not all Schools use Modules option.
Need to make it clearer to students; visible straight away. Know that Auckland has done this, but difficult as if finds the wrong list and academic inadvertantly saves – impossible to edit / change from user end. So for us, felt too risky to add this straight-away.
Also like links at pages level – as many departments prefer the flexibility of Pages to create content.
Thank you Steve.
Fair to say, found it relatively straight-forward to set this up via modules.
Launched Oct last year, continue to gradually build up interest and ownership.
By Dec – canvas already top access route. We knew this would be the case in time, but we were surprised by the speed that it happened and surpassed the link from our Resource Discovery service. (findit) [could include a screenshot]
Continues to grow:
Last month, twice as much as direct already.
Top 2 – online distance learning courses.
3) New member of staff – integrated directly. Took it as given that she used Canvas and set up ResourceList link.
7 of 12 responses had integrated into canvas. Asked how important this was to them using Resource Lists
Quote 1: ‘important – it’s the only way that students are likely to use it’. No appetite to use another library system (even though is integrated into our resource discovery system – Primo)
However, going forward, greater discoverability – key. As an academic noted. (Quote 2)
This comment also conveys the sense that academics and students alike see canvas as the key access point; and highlights why integration is so crucial.
3rd things we asked: how easy the set up was: most found it “fairly easy” (6-7 / 10 for ease)
But mentioned ‘with instructions / handouts’ - suggests that it could be easier, and if we’re going to scale this up we need to make this easier.
[need to get the menu option working]
Final comment, highlights a bit more thinking about the pedagogic use of resource lists, and putting these at the centre of the student learning experience.
Structuring of lists and phased release
Use in PCAP – one of academics writing her assignment on use
Things academics are exploring:
Consistency of provision DL and on-campus courses
Anytime learning; learning styles
Spoon-feeding
As above, re: 3:
Came a good time for some of our online (DL courses)
However, for others – already invested a lots of time setting up lists (persistent links) in canvas, but interested in additional functionality of ResourceLists, so pursuing this further.
1) Increasing seamless access for students (need to happen across Resource Lists in canvas)
However, discoverability and seamlessness will be critical to take up for academics and students – top of our wishlist.
Secondly, devolved constraints – at the moment assigning academics list (admin heavy); DC will remove another barrier to take up.
Thirdly, and critically – we have a whole workstream on academic adoption, including mainstreaming.
Academic adoption side, we presented to Directors of Education last month with the vision is to “provide seamless access to all types of resources 24/7 from one place” and they could immediately see the potential for RLs to improve the stud learning experience. Focus very much on this, rather than the library processes (book ordering) side
Cascading promotion to College T&L committees, and then School T&L committees
- Presented to Teaching Academy, PCAP as part of Technology-Enhanced Learning strand, and generally good educational practice – and looking to include in TEL hub
Working closely with Educational developers. (more so than library reps).
So, in essence, when we started we were really thinking about improving NSS (Q16) – access to library resources; what’s evolved – much closer and clearer focus on how ResourceLists can directly support teaching and learning. Penny dropped with the PVC (Education) – said he after 2 years as PVC he now understands how the library directly supports T&L in a way (with RL being one of 3 initiatives he highlighted); and that majority of academics just haven’t got that level of understanding.
[discussion at CEC?]
We take heart from this!:
1) Continue to promote top-down (and report on uptake) and working on inclusion in PCAP – for new academics to consider wider issues around RLs
2) In terms of mainstreaming developing processes to pick up new modules, new academics key. And encouraging to note that we’ve already had at least a couple of academics who have used TARL at a previous institution.
3) On the ground. Every Subject Advisor has targets to promote to indiv depts and schools – a number of academics are doing this (colleague speaking in track 2 earlier).
