MOOCs are massive open online courses that are available online for free through recognizable institutions. They have four key characteristics: they use web formats like videos and livestreams, encourage collaborative learning through discussion forums and group projects, include evaluation modules for assignments and exams, and are limited in duration by a start and end date. Common collaboration tools used in MOOCs include Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, and Slack to facilitate group work.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

>MOOCs emphasize key features of a class such as
engagement with the material, ideation and networking
with other students.
3. • Massive Open Online Courses are available online, often
free of charge, and provided by recognizable institutions.
These online courses respect certain technical
specifications and the following four characteristics: they
leverage web formats, are collaborative, contain
evaluation modules, and are limited in time.
The 4 Characteristics Of
MOOCs
4. >MOOCs heavily rely on different
web formats. Consequently, the
large majority of courses consist
of pre-recorded videos that are
streamed by users. To create
content tools like YouTube or
Vimeo are commonly used.
Streamed videos are meant to
simulate the presence of the trainer.
1. Using Web Formats
5. >MOOCs can also use live-streams
to create a virtual classroom
environment. Occasionally, teachers
also organize live sessions with their
students using tools like Hangouts
or Ustream. This is a unique
opportunity for students to get
in touch with the trainer directly
and ask questions.
>Also offer meetups and in-person
get togethers. Meetups are generally
organized by MOOC participants
who want to meet up with other
course participants in their area.
They are an opportunity to discuss
course topics but also work on
6. >During a MOOC, everything possible
is done to recreate the in-class
experience, including the use of
collaborative tools. Rather than a
vertical distribution of knowledge,
MOOCs allow for the emergence of
learning communities where the
input of each participant enriches
the course.
2. Collaborative Learning
7. >There are many online collaboration tools
that can be used by students doing group
projects. Some popular options include:
Ex:
• Google Drive
• Microsoft Teams
• Assana
• Slack
• Trello

10. Collaborative learning is a teaching
method that encourages students to work
together to achieve a common goal. This
approach can be used in the classroom in
a variety of ways, including group projects,
group discussions, and peer review. Some
benefits of collaborative learning include:
• Increased engagement and motivation
for students
• Development of social and
emotional
skills
11. • Greater understanding and
retention of material
• Opportunities for students to take on
different roles and responsibilities
• Encourages critical thinking and
problem solving.
If you are interested in implementing
collaborative learning in your
classroom.
12. here are a few strategies:
• .Divide students into small groups and
assign them a project or task to complete
together.
• Use think-pair-share or round-robin
strategies to facilitate class discussions.
Have students peer review each other's work.
• Use group games or activities to review
and reinforce material. It is important to keep
in mind that collaborative learning is not
always the best approach for every student or
topic, so it's important to consider the specific
needs of your class and the material you are
teaching. Additionally, it's important to
provide clear
expectations and guidelines for group
work and to monitor and support the
groups as they work together.
