Higher education is witnessing a sea change in the way content is created, consumed and curated. Traditional boundaries are blurring in course content and in course delivery systems. Experimental activities in every corner are challenging the business models and support systems of higher education. These challenges are compounded by the many obstacles that exist in traditional mechanisms for content licensing, commonly resulting in under-utilization of content or copyright piracy. It can be very difficult to locate the appropriate rights holders and engage in permissions requests processes, and there are often prohibitively high transaction costs involved in ensuring legally proper use of content.
Responding to this challenge, SIPX (formerly the Stanford Intellectual Property Exchange research project) resolves copyright blockages with user-friendly technology that clears rights for print, digital and online education platforms. It is an active system used by Stanford and is growing rapidly into universities and MOOC platforms. SIPX’s unique approach to copyright leverages technology and institutional relationships to provide an easy and transparent content access experience for both copyright owner and content user.

Institutional repositories capture, preserve, and provide access to the intellectual output of an institution. They consist of formally organized and managed collections of digital content generated by faculty, staff, and students. Institutional repositories allow for the dissemination of knowledge outside the institution, complement traditional forms of publication, and make works visible to colleagues and potential employers or funders. They contribute to an institution's prestige by managing and preserving relevant information that would otherwise remain scattered or inaccessible.
1. The document discusses the challenges of widespread adoption of e-research technologies by everyday researchers. While early adopters found success, most researchers are not using the infrastructure services that have been created.
2. It argues that repositories and other e-research tools need to focus on the needs and perspectives of researchers. Researchers work with data, so tools should emphasize data sharing and metadata. They should also support collaboration and open participation in the scientific process.
3. For technologies to truly enable new forms of research, their use needs to become integrated into the everyday work of all researchers, not just a specialized few. Systems must be easy to use, empower researchers' autonomy, and intersect seamlessly with digital and physical

The report identifies technologies that will impact museums within the next 1, 2, or 3-5 years. These include BYOD, crowdsourcing, and location-based services (1 year), electronic publishing and learning analytics (2-3 years), and 3D printing, natural user interfaces, and preservation technologies (3-5 years). It also discusses challenges, trends, and implications for museums in adopting new technologies.
The NMC Horizon Report > 2012 Museum Edition, is a co-production with the Marcus Institute for Digital Education in the Arts (MIDEA), and examines emerging technologies for their potential impact on and use in education and interpretation within the museum environment. The international composition of the advisory board that chose the technologies, trends, and challenges reflects the care with which a global perspective for the report was assembled. While there are many local factors affecting the adoption and use of emerging technologies in museums, there are also issues that transcend regional boundaries and questions we all face. It was with this in mind that the report was created. View the work of the advisory board on the official museum wiki at museum.wiki.nmc.org.
The document summarizes the NMC Technology Outlook for STEM+ Education 2013-2018 report, which explores emerging technologies for STEM education over the next five years. The report is a collaboration between multiple organizations and funded by a grant from CSEV. It examines technologies impacting higher education, K12, and other areas. The report identifies technologies to watch in the next one, two to three, and four to five years, such as learning analytics, mobile learning, online learning, virtual labs, 3D printing and more. Examples are provided for each time period. The document encourages participation by tagging on social media, commenting on the report, joining the advisory board, and submitting projects.
El documento presenta las principales tecnologías emergentes para la educación STEM en los próximos años según la perspectiva tecnológica 2013-2018 del New Media Consortium. Se analizan tecnologías como el aprendizaje móvil, los laboratorios virtuales, la impresión 3D, los juegos y entornos inmersivos para el aprendizaje, y la tecnología wearable. También se discuten los desafíos para la educación STEM como la necesidad de una educación más personalizada y el uso de estas nuevas tecnolog
MDEA Connect Webinar > The Met 3D Hackathon: Practical Lessons for Your Insti...New Media Consortium
This slide deck created by Don Undeen is from a MIDEA Connect webinar that took place May 1, 2013. Don Undeen is the Media Lab Manager at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York & spoke about how museums are in a great position to engage the maker and hacker communities.
In June of 2012, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in cooperation with MakerBot Industries, invited 30 digital artists into the museum to photograph collection sculptures, turn those images into digital 3D models, make new works based on those models, and print them on MakerBot's 3D printers. Undeen explained in the webinar how the Hackathon is a springboard for considering practical possibilities in any institution. He also discussed inexpensive software and hardware that opens up new possibilities for engagement with art lovers of all ages and abilities, and delved into the DIY spirit of cooperation.
The HP Catalyst Academy is a fresh approach to professional development that will accelerate professional learning among STEMx educators, providing personalized and powerful learning experiences that inspire and transform teaching practices: http://catalyst-academy.org/.
MIDEA Connect Webinar > Building an Interpretive Technology Strategy From ZeroNew Media Consortium
The director of technology at the Denver Art Museum needs to build an interpretive technology strategy for their website, mobile apps, and social media presence with no budget. The document outlines identifying key goals like allowing images to be shared to social media before an event, providing additional information to visitors at the museum, and allowing visitor interactions and comments to be shared across platforms. It then discusses how to set up workflows to automatically move data between these platforms using services like IFTTT and QR codes with a focus on functional, scalable, and lightweight solutions. The overall strategy is to front-load the work setting up these automated workflows so the system can scale over time with minimal additional effort.
The document summarizes Adobe's Creative Cloud for Education, which provides the latest Adobe creative tools through a subscription-based cloud offering. It offers major benefits like always having the latest versions of applications, collaborative features, and learning resources. Adobe is focusing on Creative Cloud and will no longer release perpetual versions of Creative Suite. Creative Cloud for Education provides options for individuals, teams, and institutions and includes free professional development resources and teaching materials.

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
This presentation was provided by Steph Pollock of The American Psychological Association’s Journals Program, and Damita Snow, of The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), for the initial session of NISO's 2024 Training Series "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape." Session One: 'Setting Expectations: a DEIA Primer,' was held June 6, 2024.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17Celine George
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
