2010 NCRCRD Webinar: Competencies for extension professionalsGraham Cochran
Slides from A Webinar from the North Central Regional Center for Rural Development in Cooperation with eXtension
November 16th, 2010
Presenters:
Graham Cochran, The Ohio State University
Scott Scheer, The Ohio State University
Amy Harder, University of Florida
Webinar Description
The 21st century is a time of change for Extension organizations; a time when more than ever, success depends on the knowledge and capabilities of employees. In this changing environment, authors in human resource management and specifically Extension organizations recommend competencies as a powerful tool that can provide focus on individual behaviors that contribute the most to organizational success. Through a webinar presentation and interactive discussion participants: (1) reviewed key concepts related to competencies and how competencies can be used in selection, orientation, professional development, and other HR practices; (2) learned about methodologies used and results from recent research in the Cooperative Extension System; and (3) had an opportunity to discuss implications from the research and applications for their Extension work.

Addressing Inequity in Education via Mandatory Staff Developmentdecolonisingdmu
Lucy Panesar, University of Kent
Terry Finnigan, University of the Arts London
This session draws on the experience of different institutions and their approach to addressing inequity in education within a HE context. Colleagues from De Montfort University, Kent University and University of the Arts London discuss how they are utilising mandatory staff development programmes, in the shape of Postgraduate Certificates to help academic staff to innovate and transform their teaching practice in light of the decolonising agenda.
Each of these institutions have various levels of experience in adopting this approach. Each will explain their individual approaches and reflect on the strengths and challenges they have encountered. In sharing this practice, we hope to inspire other institutions to also take bolder steps to developing a more equitable and inclusive student learning experience through their PG Certs.
We propose to run a structured plenary discussion providing an overview of the different approaches that institutions have taken to bringing issues of inclusive practice, decolonisation and racial and social justice into the key remit of mandatory PG Certs. There will be opportunity for delegates to reflect on challenges/approaches of presenting a similar approach within their institution.
This presentation was delivered at Reimagining Higher Education: journeys of decolonising at De Montfort University, Leicester, on Wednesday 8th November 2023.

Presentation at HEA-funded workshop 'Developing a research-led culture within post-92 education departments'.
This event will brought together colleagues from across the sector with an interest in research leadership and building a research-led culture. The event facilitated a discussion through which participants could explore/identify key elements that form barriers, as well as those that support, the development of a research-led culture.
This presentation is part of a related blog post that provides an overview of the event: http://bit.ly/1pEyxCI

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.

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.

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.

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.
