Driving student outcomes and success: What’s next for the retention pilot pro...LearningandTeaching
As part of the Navitas 2020 Strategic Project on Retention, Learning and Teaching Services has been investigating and evaluating current practice both within our colleges and externally, developing a Retention Driver Tree to identify the activities that make a difference to the student experience.
In a recent webinar, Maria Spies and Suneeti Rekhari unpacked retention strategies and explored deeper into the impact of current retention pilots at Deakin and La Trobe Colleges.
Maria Spies outlined the Retention Driver Tree and the factors contributing to student experience and success. Suneeti Rekhari explained the processes used to plan, implement and evaluate the retention interventions, and the early indicators and outcomes emerging from the Colleges. Through this presentation, they discussed what these initial findings mean for the Retention Driver Tree and the next steps in addressing retention.

New Teacher Excellence: The Impact of State Policy on Induction Program Implementation -- While scholars have argued and research demonstrates that intensive induction support can increase teacher effectiveness, satisfaction and retention, there is little consensus around which specific policy levers have an influence on quality mentoring and induction programs and even less research to explain the growth and development of induction programs that have little or no state policy support.
This paper explores the intersection between state induction policy and local induction program implementation and examines the question: How does state policy impact the development and quality of local induction programs?

An introduction to the ACODE Benchmarks for technology enhanced learning (TEL...Charles Darwin University
Benchmarking in the areas of technology enhanced learning (TEL) is an important part of how institutions are able to mediate a level of quality in their online practice. This has become increasingly significant with the advent, and increased powers of higher education quality assurance agencies in many countries, and who are now taking a keen interest in how our institutions can provide a level of equivalence to the quality of their practice. This webinar will provide you a comprehensive introduction to the ACODE Benchmarks for TEL, and offer you a compelling rationale for their use as part of a suite of initiatives an institution can apply to facilitate a level of quality across eight key areas of institutional practice. To support this claim, this presentation will provide practical examples of how this tool has been applied by in excess of 35 institutions from five countries over recent years. Importantly, once you have gained an understanding of what this tool can offer you, you will be asked to identify significant others within your institution who you believe could go on this important journey with you.

Training presentation for fish conservation zone assessment guidebookMekong Fish Network
This presentation is a training orientation to the guidebook "Guidelines for Assessing Fish Conservation Zones in Lao PDR. The guidebook describes the steps of planning and conducting an assessment of community-managed freshwater Fish Conservation Zones (FCZs), as well as 21 indicators of governance, socioeconomic, and ecological effectiveness. The full guidebook is available to download online:

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.
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.

Editor's Notes
Decided not to rank/gradeWe have chosen to take a formative approach in helping states to identify areas of strength and weakness and offer our expertiseFocus on answering the question, and determining if a state meets the criteria, but did do some counting to see which states might require 1 year of induction, which states require induction but don’t provide dedicated funding, which states require 2 years of induction, tie it to licensure and provide dedicated funding?
Remind them:In the end states are largely falling short and only 3 states require induction for 2+ years and fund it (Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa-Special Mentions: California, Illinois).
