Blended learning with MOOCs: towards supporting the learning design processLaia Albó
For some time now, universities have been making a significant effort to develop Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). One way to leverage the effort invested in developing and carrying out MOOCs is to use the online courses or parts of them in traditional brick-and-mortar courses that are delivered on campus.
There are several learning design strategies that consider the combination of face to face (f2f) learning in university courses with one or more MOOCs, though teachers are generally only familiar with the most typical approaches – for instance, the flipped classroom. The variety of combinations and possibilities offered by this type of education constitutes a new learning design space whose full potential is underexplored. The aim of this research is to present and explore the affordances offered by an authoring tool devoted to support the design of blended uses of MOOCs and its impact in the resulting learning designs. A workshop has been carried out with the objective of supporting participants in exploring the possibilities of using MOOCs in combination with the courses typically offered on university campuses. Participants were mainly
university teachers as well as academic and administrative staff responsible for supporting the development of MOOCs. Results indicate that the authoring tool can support the process of learning design involving blended learning scenarios with MOOCs and can contribute to expanding the knowledge of this type of learning in teachers.

AngeLA: Putting the teacher in control of student privacy in the online class...Andrii Vozniuk
The paper was presented at ITHET 2014: http://infoscience.epfl.ch/record/200345?ln=en
Learning analytics (LA) is often considered as a means to improve learning and learning environments by measuring student behaviour, analysing the tracked data and acting upon the results. The use of LA tools implies recording and processing of student activities conducted on software platforms. This paper proposes a flexible, contextual and intuitive way to provide the teacher with full control over student activity tracking in online learning environments. We call this approach AngeLA, inspired by an angel guarding over LA privacy. AngeLA mimics in a virtual space the privacy control mechanism that works well in a physical room: if a person is present in a room, she is able to observe all activities happening in the room. AngeLA serves two main purposes: (1) it increases the awareness of teachers about the activity tracking and (2) provides an intuitive way to manage the activity tracking permissions. This approach can be applied to various learning environments and social media platforms. We have implemented AngeLA in Graasp, a social platform that fosters collaborative activities.

Digital access refers to how much technology people use in their daily lives. Today, most people have computers, tablets, or smartphones in their homes, providing far greater digital access than previous generations. Phones now have vastly more processing power, memory, and capabilities than early computers, yet are small enough to fit in a pocket. While digital access enables convenience, people should be mindful of overusing electronics and balance screen time with outdoor activities. Those with limited access can use public computers or ask friends with devices. Digital access has increased rapidly over time, with phones now more powerful than early NASA equipment and the internet accessible to most.

A Snapshot of Seedling Growth Dynamics on Stanley IslandJosh Cole
This document summarizes a study on seedling growth dynamics on Stanley Island. Nineteen plots were established across two tracks on the island to monitor seedling heights, densities, and abundances. It was found that Coprosma species were the most abundant seedlings, though they are still recovering from past fires and browsing mammals. Seedling density, numbers, and heights varied most based on competition between species. Further south areas had greater diversity, abundance, and density, possibly due to past Maori occupation. More research is needed to better understand seedling patterns on the island.
1. The study examined the density and size of two bivalve species, Macomona liliana and Austrovenus stutchburyi, across tidal elevations at two sites near Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand - an exposed sandy site and a sheltered muddy site.
2. The results showed that bivalve density was generally higher at mid tide and lower tidal elevations, and lower at high tide. A. stutchburyi density was significantly higher at the exposed site while M. liliana density did not differ significantly between sites. A. stutchburyi size was also significantly larger at the exposed site.
3. Statistical analysis found significant differences in bivalve
The 11-year-old male patient has been experiencing recurrent anorectal pain for several days that increases with movement and decreases with defecation.

Creating authentic classroom scenarios to enhance student learning debbieholley1
A keynote presentation to the BU Careers and Teachers conference #BUCATC
This keynote suggests that with the move to models of school based teacher training, that trainee teachers and NQTs find the CPD on offer unsuitable to their needs. Here I suggest that harnessing their desire co-create with their peers and develop solutions to real-time issues can be scaffolded and mediated through simple technology such as augmented reality, and I present a model to take the work forward.
The GI Pedagogy project aims to develop innovative pedagogies and teacher training materials for teaching with geographic information systems (GIS). The project is led by St Mary's University in partnership with universities and schools in other European countries.

Presentation at Tallinn University.
Archimedes Foundation fellow - Research visit during 3 months at TLU.
Learning analytics is the most known type of data collected from specific technological environments that allow educators to evaluate how students are learning within a learning context. However, there are more types of data available, less-explored, that may contribute to better design educational practices. These include design analytics, which are the metrics of design decisions and related aspects that inform learning designs. Laia Albó, from Universitat Pompeu Fabra, will talk about how visual representations, authoring support, and design analytics can aid teachers in designing for learning in complex scenarios that blend the use of different spaces for learning and different types of technological tools and resources, e.g. Massive Open Online Courses. This presentation is based on her PhD thesis work, defended in November 2019.
VOCE is a proposed virtual professional development project that aims to improve math and science education in K-12 classrooms. It would provide online courses and resources to guide teachers in implementing research-based teaching strategies like authentic pedagogy and learning progressions. The goal is to raise student achievement levels through effective, sustained professional development that is affordable and accessible to entire school districts. VOCE would offer various online tools and activities to help teachers collaborate, design lessons, and analyze student work to improve instruction.
Presentation for the International Geographic Conference outlining the initial findings of the Erasmus+ funded project from the literature review and small scale survey of teachers.
The ESTABLISH project aims to promote inquiry-based science education across Europe by developing teaching resources and providing teacher training. It involves partners from 11 countries and will create 18 inquiry units on topics in biology, chemistry, physics and general science. The project expects to develop a large team of science teachers skilled in inquiry-based methods and identify suitable models for pre-service and in-service teacher education programs. It also aims to promote classroom inquiry involving stakeholders from science, industry and education.
This document outlines a project to develop innovative pedagogies and teacher training materials for teaching with geoinformation (GI). The project involves 6 partner institutions and aims to create an innovative pedagogical model, toolkit of teaching approaches using GI, and a teacher training course. It will also feature case studies and a digital exhibition of outcomes. The goal is to equip early career and trainee teachers with skills for teaching critical thinking and spatial citizenship using GI tools.
The document describes the ENGAGE project which aims to equip students for active engagement in science through inquiry-based science education. The goals are to help teachers address contemporary science issues, develop their practice for responsible research and innovation, and provide students with skills to engage with science issues. The project will create an online teacher community and open curriculum materials dealing with science dilemmas. It focuses on developing students' science-society knowledge, inquiry skills, and ability to evaluate claims, consider values, and communicate ideas.
This document summarizes a presentation about moving teaching online during COVID-19. It discusses the University of Liverpool's experience with e-learning and focuses on on-campus taught programs. It introduces the concept of "Hybrid Active Learning" which combines synchronous small group teaching and asynchronous online content. Key aspects of Hybrid Active Learning discussed are using synchronous time for active learning, maximizing the on-campus experience, and streamlining assessments. The document also covers learning design principles, tools to engage students, and tips for online teaching.
Presentation from a pilot project: eTwinning in teacher education, in the semingar Erasmus+ TCA: Enhancing student mobility in Teacher Education, held at Icelandair Hotel Reykjavik Natura 3.-4. December 2019
The document discusses problem-based learning (PBL) in engineering education. It describes the origins of PBL in medical education at universities like McMaster in the late 1960s. It then discusses how PBL was adapted for engineering education, particularly through the Aalborg model in Denmark. Key aspects of PBL discussed include using real-world problems to stimulate self-directed learning, teachers acting as facilitators rather than lecturers, interdisciplinary learning, and emphasis on developing problem-solving skills. Research is cited showing benefits of PBL for skills development, deep learning, and motivation of students. Factors in successful implementation and management of change to PBL are also examined.
Promoting excellence in STEM education, Andrea van BruggenBrussels, Belgium
This document discusses promoting excellence in STEM education through enrichment programs. It describes two such programs: the Junior College Utrecht program, a collaboration between Utrecht University and 27 schools offering research modules to talented students, and the Willem van Oranje College program offering challenging projects. It provides an example JCU module on membranes and antibiotic resistance that uses inquiry-based learning. The document recommends differentiating instruction and open-ended assignments to challenge excellent students, and cooperating with other teachers and external experts to develop high-quality materials for excellence programs.
This document summarizes opportunities available through the British Council, including eTwinning, Schools Online, and Comenius programs. eTwinning allows teachers across Europe to collaborate on projects and professional development. It offers free resources and a safe online environment. Schools Online provides an international collaboration area and information center with worldwide coverage. Comenius supports fully funded courses, seminars, conferences, and job shadowing opportunities for in-service teacher training focused on the EU. Contact information is provided for local eTwinning officers and other British Council representatives for further support.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
