Lecture3 - Putting the forces in motionVance Stevens
Technology affords powerful resources to help us teach writing, as with collaboration projects involving blogs, wikis, Google docs and mapping tools perhaps in convergence with online writing labs or multi-user virtual environments and even lower-level spelling software, readability analysis systems, automatic assisted translation, text corpora, etc. How can we use these resources and with what implications for writing online? I will focus on an aspect whose widespread use is only just emerging, and which I have found requires some training in teachers and learners, i.e. how tagged learning objects are aggregated in a way that encourages collaboration which in turn elicits writing. Specifically, I will report on the Writingmatrix project, established to pursue exactly this question. In this project students from different parts of the world tagged their individual postings and through these tags found one another while heightening their own experience in tutored writing. We will hear how the teachers in the project implemented it in their classes, how their students reacted, and what this technique suggests for the teaching of writing over the Internet in the 'near and now' future.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Students, digital devices and success - Andreas Schleicher - 27 May 2024..pptxEduSkills OECD

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

• Student Assignments
o
Teachers post homework, group work, and classroom goals,
and update them throughout the year in real time.
• Curriculum Planning
o
Classroom schedules and lesson plans can be tweaked from
any computer or mobile device — and reused and re-purposed
from year to year.
• Professional Development
o
Education professionals come together to plan events and
share best practices in a flexible, accessible, easy-to-update
online resource.
13. What students can do with a wiki
• Student Portfolios
o
Each student creates and maintains a unique online space to
showcase his/her best work, and teachers assess performance
as it progresses
• Project-Based Learning
o
Student groups collaborate on projects that address real-world
questions, and share their findings with a real-world audience.
• Distance Learning
o Students and teachers share a flexible educational space
that’s accessible anytime from anywhere in the world.
