The H818 cohort work for months researching and creating an education project under 3 Themes: Innovation, Inclusion and Implementation. We are tasked to create them in one of these Formats: Multimedia, Workshop or Paper.
The principal goals are to cultivate an open practice, create our work through peer review inside and outside the module and become Networked Practitioners ourselves and to create a Personal Learning Network for a lifetime.
Everyone provided an interesting and thought provoking project and I proud to have worked with all of my colleagues in this module.
ETUG2015-Mobile Technology Integration in an Applied Science Program: Forestr...Michael Paskevicius
As mobile devices continue to proliferate throughout society, the question of how higher education might take advantage of these devices for use in teaching and learning remains unclear. While many institutions now have ‘bring your own device’ (BYOD) policies, others have mandated access to mobile devices at the program or institutional level.
The purpose of this session is present the case of how our department of forestry went about implementing a tablet initiative. The tablet was a required device for both faculty and students entering the program in September 2014 with the intended goals of reducing textbook purchase costs for students, mirroring industry standard practices in mobile device usage and enabling collaborative and active learning in the classroom.
In the session we will share what we have learned thus far in supporting the initiative and reflect on feedback collected from faculty and students in interviews, focus groups and observations throughout the program. At the end of the session, participants should be able to identify the challenges, issues and best practices for implementing a tablet initiative at this level.

Teach Talk: Devices are taking over the classroom - so what next?FrogEducation
The revolution has arrived. Mobile devices are in our classrooms, but after technical issues have been resolved, how do you actually use devices as a teaching resource? Hear how schools are using devices in the classroom to improve learning and increase student engagement.
TECHNOLOGY-ENHANCED LEARNING WITH THE IPADMadden-a
In 2015, Kanda Institute of Foreign Languages’ EIC Department (English for International Communication) introduced iPads into the curriculum. iPads were distributed to over 100 EFL teachers and over 1800 students. Embracing technology-enhanced learning has led to many benefits.
A walk through the many methods being used in the university's Health faculty to make teaching and learning richer by using iPads and apps. Robin was accompanied by staff (Melanie Lindley, Mandy Braisford and Dave Ridley) and students (Lizzie May and Ryan Morton) who talked about their many experiences of using this technology and their ideas for the future.

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.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

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.

To view the Guide http://bit.ly/2nZN27A
It is clear from the literature that learners value this type of support
and use it (Henderson, Selwyn et al., 2017)
It enables learners to use time waiting for the bus or walking the dog
to squeeze in some studying (Kukulska-Hulme, 2012)
Learners expectations of using technology are higher as found by
the UCL study on the Google Generation (Rowlands et al., 2008)

12. Educators support
Supported by Oxford University's Senior Learning Technologist, Dr. Jill Fresen
"Denise's proposal to develop a study toolkit guide
of existing mobile apps and tools, to support students who want to study 'on the move'
addresses a real need experienced by
modern, mobile students."
In an interview with Senior Manager of Learning Technology, Marion Manton.
Oxford University Continuing Education, as learners aged 18-90 pursue lifelong
learning online.

14. Multimedia - Empirical
Evidence
Richard E. Mayer
‘The case for multimedia learning rests on the premise that learners
can better understand an explanation when it is presented in words
and pictures than when it is presented with words alone,’
Recommendations
• Text & images min
Place text next to image - not under/captions
• Sound & Images best
Brain has 2 channels
Cognitively processed separately

15. Problems - Lessons Learned
• A digital innovation project of this kind is very demanding –
countless hours; tools learned: Sway, Screencastomatic,
SurveyMonkey, AdobeSpark, Powtoons, Powerpoint, Apowersoft,
etc.
• Consider taking H818 as your last module, body work to draw on
• No actual App or set proscribed apps – guidance for analysing apps
and creating own PLE. Original title “Mobile Apps “Toolkit” caused
confusion so revised name to from Mobile Study App Guide
To view the Guide http://bit.ly/2nZN27A
16. Conclusions
• Worthwhile - through networked practice invited write a proposal
for Oxford Museum using Sway in informal - direct result of
Networked Practitioner & H818
• In addition: developing my own Personal Learning Environment with
GoogleDocs, MERLOT, Wordpress, Twitter, Facebook, Cloudworks, OU
Forums, & Open Studio – Mobile Apps are an evolving part PLE

Editor's Notes
Good afternoon and Welcome to my presentation. I am so excited to show you my Mobile Apps Study Guide. I have been eating, breathing, sleeping and dreaming about this project everyday for 4 months. I created this guide as an overview to help learners use apps to study on a mobile devices.
In my experience to make anywhere anytime a reality – good apps are necessary. 40min bus journey I want to use to study
Born of my own desire study while commuting.
OK READY TO PLAY? With the guide ------- THE URL IS ON more SLIDES IS YOU HAVE any PROBLEMS
Can fix Word export and PDF if full Acrobat DC
It is clear from the research and interviews that students and educators find such a guide useful
To check the my assumptions about mobiles and apps I created my first little survey at cmas break using – Smonkey – it is free 10 Questions
The Guide is supported by educators in learning technology and distance education
This article on PLEs is a part of 7 Things series by Educause and informed my learning outcomes and objectives
There is no app or proscribed set of apps RATHER guidance for analysing your own choices
In early user testing the word ”Toolkit” caused some confusion so changed it to M Study App GUIDE.
Please provide user testing feedback Actitivty 3 or email --- all links will be on Cloudworks
