The document discusses the MYP Technology program at the Canadian International School of Hong Kong. It provides an overview of the integrated approach used in the program and how technology is incorporated across different subject areas like Language A, Sciences, and Humanities. It also outlines how the program develops skills like investigating, planning, creating, and evaluating through challenge-based learning. Finally, it discusses how the MYP Technology program prepares students for future projects and assessments in the IB Diploma Program.
Workshop: Learning Spaces - National University of SingaporeMike KEPPELL
Personal learning spaces constitute the formal and informal spaces and technologies customised by the learner or teacher. They are spaces that are owned by the learner or teacher. However, insufficient attention has been given to providing assistance to learners and teachers to design their own personal learning spaces. This workshop provides a framework for personal learning spaces that includes: distributed learning spaces, seamless learning and principles of learning space design that assist learners and teachers to design their own personal learning spaces. Distributed learning spaces include physical, blended, virtual mobile, personal, outdoor, academic and professional practice spaces (Keppell & Riddle, 2012). Seamless learning occurs when a person experiences a continuity of learning across a combination of locations, times, technologies or social settings (Sharples, et al, 2012). Seven principles of learning space design include: comfort, aesthetics, flow, equity, blending, affordances and repurposing (Souter, Riddle & Keppell, 2010). By taking account of distributed learning spaces, seamless learning and principles of learning space design both learners and teachers will be empowered to construct their own personal learning spaces.
For level 1 (year 1) and Level 2 (year 3) this is a rubric that you can use to grade, give feedback the teach students and teachers alike the Design Cycle material that can support student and teacher growth and understanding.

Paper abstract:
With the development of information and computer technology (ICT), digital game-mediated teaching is becoming an increasingly popular trend in the field of English Language Teaching (ELT). The interactive design of digital games has been reported to have a positive effect learner motivation and many games have been developed in recent years with an educational purpose. This presentation reports on a project being conducted with The University of Edinburgh and Nosebleed Interactive Ltd, which forms part of a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) funded by Innovate UK. The grant was awarded to fund the development of a novel web based entertainment platform as an innovative method for teaching English to Chinese children. KTPs are a three-way partnership between supervising academic(s), a recent graduate and a company. The graduate, Sihan Zhou, will provide an overview of the materials that have been designed to date and the academics, Dr. Nicola Galloway and Ruby Rennie, will outline how the game development is informed by academic expertise. The presenters will also provide a brief summary of the main research findings from various research projects conducted by MSc Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) students at The University of Edinburgh. These research projects, which mainly focused on teachers’ and parents' attitudes towards game-mediated second language education, form part of a large-scale needs analysis to inform the game development. This presentation will be of interest to those interested in the field of digital game-mediated learning, TESOL, and also curriculum innovation. The presentation will explore the various contextual constraints to incorporating the materials into the Chinese primary school context, offering insights for those working in similar contexts.
Keywords: Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), Digital game based learning, curriculum innovation, Information and Computer Technology (ICT).

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
