Strategies for using technology to organize a promotion and tenure portfolioRebecca Reck
At most universities, promotion and tenure decisions are made based on performance in three categories: teaching, research, and service. During the review for promotion, the candidate presents a portfolio with evidence of their work in binders which are intended to tell the professional story of the candidate while on the tenure-track. Wankat and Oreovicz suggest creating a schedule for technical research and publishing over your entire probationary period and keeping a record of activities to ensure nothing is missed in your portfolio. This presentation provides tips and resources for maintaining and archiving artifacts for tenure and promotion.

Opportunities: Supporting the extended project qualificationJohn Iona
Slides from a workshop delivered at the SLA Conference 2014. The sessions looked at the EPQ, what it involves and how it is assessed, how I am involved and how Librarians might like to get involved in it in their schools.
What does good course design look like to you - Alex Wu, BlackboardBlackboard APAC
Course design is undoubtedly a critical element of any online or blended learning environment. As academics and instructional designers, we often associate course design with teaching and learning outcomes that are course- and program-specific and are aligned specifically to graduate attributes or goals. In this session, we will instead take a deconstructive approach to analyse each of the main tool groups within Blackboard Learn and Collaborate, and showcase some unique tool deployment use-cases from clients around the globe. We will also touch on using the same tools in research and grant management to discuss how both teaching and research departments could cross benefit from using the same platform within an institution.
Enhancing Librarians’ Research Skills: A Professional Development ProgramIRDL
Institute of Research Design for Librarianship (IRDL), is a three-year project funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services in the United States, which seeks to provide professional development opportunities and a support system for academic librarians who want to improve their research skills and increase their research output. We have recently completed the first nine-day Institute for 25 librarians from all over the country, and we would like to share our experience with the international community, hoping to generate more interest and encourage more discussion on practitioner research in LIS.

The use of ePortfolios for assessment in Clinical Practicum: Opportunities an...ePortfolios Australia
This presentation outlines the implementation of e-portfolios as an assessment tool in a clinical practicum undergraduate course at a university in New Zealand. Having used pen and paper portfolio, in the multi-components assessment
of this course students reported their concern that the nature of portfolio as a hard -copy document did not lend itself
to further use in their careers. An action research project was designed to address students’ experience by offering
flexible learning opportunities and diversification of various modes of assessment using Mahara ePortfolio system.
ePortfolios allow the demonstration of learner achievements and competencies where the electronic repository of
artifacts facilitate the transition from study to employment. Drawing on online surveys, semi -structured interviews
with students and ePortfolio analysis, this research will examine students’ experiences and challenges of using ePortfolios, as well as potential strategies for improving the use of ePortfolio as an assessment tool in similar work integrated courses. Dilani Gedera (PhD) is an eLearning Designer at the University of Waikato. She provides eLearning
support and training on all aspects of teaching and learning for staff She has a PhD in eLearning from the University of
Waikato, and has worked as a lecturer in New Zealand, Sri-Lanka and Malaysia for 14 years. Her research focuses on
educational technologies and the ways they can enhance learner engagement in blended and fully online learning
environments. Kyle J. H. Smith is a Clinical Psychologist and Senior Clinical Tutor at the University of Waikato, where
she teaches, conducts research, and has a small private practice. Specialising in the assessment and treatment of anxiety, her areas of focus include perinatal mental health, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and supervision.

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

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.
