Open Educational Resources: Nuts & Bolts of Developing an Online Plagiarism T...UCD Library
Presentation given by Jennifer Collery, College Liaison Librarian at University College Dublin Library to LIR Annual Seminar, Dublin, Ireland on March 21, 2014.
In recent years, the Open Educational Resources (OER) movement has achieved considerable success within the academic community with respect to advocacy of the concept. As a result, many organisations such as the Commonwealth of Learning (COL), UNESCO and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), in partnership with academic institutions, have produced large volumes of OER. However, due to the disconnected nature and the constant expansion of volume, many repositories hosting these resources are less frequented or completely ignored by OER users. i.e. only the more popular OER repositories such as Connexions and WikiEducator are frequent stops in the search for academically useful resources. This limitation, in turn, reduces the access to high quality resources hidden away in isolated repositories hosted by lesser known sources. Furthermore, the time and labour required to trawl these repositories with a view of identifying the most suitable OER is tantamount to creating ones’ own material from scratch. As a solution to these issues, this paper discusses how the OERScout technology framework uses a “faceted search” approach to locate the most desirable OER from sources spread throughout the globe. It also highlights how focused searching can greatly improve access to OER readily useable in teaching and learning.

Studying Learning Expeditions in Crossactionspaces with Digital Didactical De...Isa Jahnke
As web-enabled mobile technologies become increasingly integrated into formal learning environments, they are merging to create a new kind of classroom: CrossActionSpaces (informal-in-formal spaces) in which communicative learning takes place across traditional boundaries. The term offers a view from social sciences, emphasizes a change of human action: from pure inter-action into cross-action. Under these new conditions the question are: how to conceptualize and design for learning, how can teaching helps learning? In this keynote, Isa Jahnke presents the framework of Digital Didactical Designs (DDD) which can be used to study and to reflect on educational practices toward deeper learning expeditions.

Barbour, M. K., Wenmoth, D., & Davis, N. (2012, November). Sustainability and maturity of K-12 online learning organizations in New Zealand. A paper presented at the annual convention of the Association for Educational Communication and Technology, Louisville, KY.
This session describes a study into the development of K-12 online learning in New Zealand, specifically the obstacles e-learning clusters face to achieve sustainability and maturity through the lens of the Learning Communities Online Handbook. Using a variety of data collection methods, the researcher identified three common barriers and four examples of networked schools. Based on these findings, it is recommended e-learning clusters encourage greater collaboration between clusters and greater consistency of activities.
George Veletsianos: Emerging Academic Practices in Open Online Learning Envi...Alexandra M. Pickett
The growing need for an educated workforce, changing student demographics, opportunities presented by new technologies, and increases in the cost of attending post-graduate educational institutions have led many educators, policymakers, and businesspeople to seek more affordable models of educating large numbers of students, such as open textbooks and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). An uncertain job market, expanding opportunities to interact with diverse audiences in online settings, and the potential of online networks to increase citations and impact have also led many academics to engage in open scholarship and make use of such online social networks as Twitter and Academia.edu. Common to both these developments is an increasing advocacy for and engagement with open practices in teaching, learning, and scholarship. In this talk, I will describe a number of emerging online practices and share results from my research into these practices.
Based on data form a range of ACODE Surveys over the last 12 months, and other industry data, there have been some distinct trends emerge that suggest that institutions are taking a fresh look at how they conduct teaching and assessment, longer term. Much of this has been predicated on what was necessary to deal with lock-down situations due to COVID-19, but more recently this has allowed institutions to consider the longer-term advantages in accommodating different forms of assessment, those that have traditionally fallen out of what was considered ‘normal’, most notably the ‘exam’. This shift in thinking has also extended to what institutions considering different forms of delivery of their core content, with there being a distinct shift away from what has been the mainstay for centuries, the ‘Lecture’. This shift has allowed for more authentic forms of delivery, ones based in more collaborative and active approaches. This presentation with provide a summary of some of the key data and share some examples of how some institutions are approaching the next few years, as uncertainty around the short-term future of in-person learning and teaching persists.

Session Title: "Capturing the voice of the child: a co-design approach to developing calmer classrooms"
Session Description: 30 minutes
The 'voice of the child' is lacking within traditional literature framing classroom behaviour, and this project set out to develop a set of resources to assist trainee teachers to view their classes from the perspective of the child. The class of 11 year old children in our study developed, planned, wrote and directed video clips on their own ideas of issues that affected their learning. This presentation will cover the co-design workshop with the children, and showcase their ideas. By appreciating how children see barriers to their own learning, trainee teachers can develop insights into their own practice.
This session focuses on the Digital Access aspects of Digital Citizenship, as co-design workshops aim to give all participants a voice, and this session encompasses the challenge and opportunities of working with a diverse set of participants.

The Value of Being Valued: all in the eyes of the beholderUCD Library
Presentation given by Peter Hickey, Head of Client Services, UCD Library, at the Relationship Management in HE Libraries Conference, Stirling, UK on 20th Nov 2015.
Smart parking sensor networks can provide accurate data drawn directly from actual parking behaviors in every space – not just estimates. The benefit of this knowledge allows communities large and small to arrive at tangible applications to help them thrive and grow.
For example, optimized parking in retail areas, i.e. less empty spots and fair enforcement of time limits, can improve turnover of spaces (number of cars that occupy a space per day).
Increased turnover in retail areas typically leads to increased sales for that area's retailers. This then leads to greater revenue through taxes and property values for a community. That in turn attracts new businesses and residents, which then further helps enhance the overall economic value of the area.
This is just one example of how better parking can enable a better, more vibrant and thriving community.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.
