Technology For Student Success - Simplifying Student Researchteacherjday
"Technology for Student Success" was a presentation for teachers and administrators to model how to simplify students' research by using of content with a purpose, for an audience. Each student culminates his or her research into a briefings format.
The format is easy to use when following the ABCs of Briefings:
*A - Authentic forms and strategies of research writing in the real world are identified, as resources for the integration of all subject areas.
*B - Briefings based on content for a purpose; affecting an audience.
*C - Choice is applies and connected to community within and outside of the classroom.
Throughout the session teachers:
1. discover how the structure of briefings support the author's purpose through strategic presentation of content to affect an audience.
2. apply components of authentic learning: choice, connections, and community to increase motivation, problem solving and quality in writing.
3. use self generated, open-ended questions about a topic to guide research from a variety of resources.
4. identify what makes effective revision through a question and answer sharing format.
5. self assess their own learning and consider how to implement the research model in their own classrooms with students.
I facilitated this session for the Center for School Reform (in Kansas City, MO) at the Summit for Student Success Conference, held in Columbia, MO.

Instructions
One of the many tasks involved in writing a dissertation or a research article is being able to justify the choice of one methodology over others. Just as critical to the feasibility of a study is the stated rationale for selecting a specific research design. This week, you are introduced to two research designs that have several features in common; there are also stark contrasts that are identifiable.
For this week’s assignment, consider what you have learned about the case study and phenomenological research designs. Using the same research problem developed in Week 1, how could you use these designs to gain insights to fulfill the purpose of your study?
Begin by selecting the approach that best fits the problem. Use the resources provided, and at least three other peer-reviewed articles to defend your choice (two pages minimum). Create a one-page critique of the other research design that includes arguments why the design may not suitable for researching your problem. Include a summary of the key arguments for your choice.
Length: 3-4 pages
Your assignment should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.

Hi Elton,
The topic of this week's assignment included reading all of the material that was required satisfactorily to explain the required information. With the required reading and the research project that you discussed in week one's assignment, you were to determine which of the two types of qualitative research designs that you read about this week would fit your topic that you explained in the first week's assignment by discussing and critiquing within two pages how you would use that type of design to plan your project. Then, you were to take one full page to critique how the design that you found that would not be suitable in fitting your proposed research project by using key arguments, which you would have found in your required reading. These required three pages of critique and discussion did not include your introduction or conclusion of your research paper. Therefore, this project was supposed to be succinct enough to clearly and concisely explain your thought process in a scholarly paper (using citations for all information) to only include up to four pages total.
The feedback process for this paper, as well as your other assignments, consisted of a four-part summary (four-parts listed below), a few short, location-specific balloon-comments found within the margins of the text, and the highlighting of grammar, punctuation, or APA styling errors found with ...

BA300 Manager Interview Assignment
This is a research paper, so you need to approach it as just that. The point of this assignment is to demonstrate that you can complete research, and connect that research to the class material. In doing this, you will show that you understand and can explain the class material through the research. The research in this assignment is the information that you collect from the interview and shadowing experiences.
Complete the following steps to complete this project:
Step 1: Choose an interview and shadowing subject – This should be a person that:
1. Is currently a manager with employees that they manage,
2. You have access to for both the interview and shadowing, and
3. Agrees to allow you to interview and shadow them.
If you need a letter from the professor to gain their approval, please request one from the professor.
Step 2: Conduct your interview - Use the questions listed below for conducting your Manager Interview. You’ll want to take notes and, if possible, audio record the interview for use when you’re preparing your paper.
Step 3: Shadow your interviewee – spend at least 4 or more hours following the manager through their daily routine. Make notes during this time that focus on what the manager may or may not be doing well based on your opinion and the material from the class.
Step 4: After conducting your interview – prepare a 5-7-page paper that reports your findings from the interview. Think of the interview and shadowing as a primary source (like a book or research journal) to use to write your paper. You MUST clearly cover the following five points:
a. Summarize the manager’s responses to the questions.
b. Evaluate and compare the manager’s responses compared to textbook and lecture discussions.
c. What advice might you give to the manager in order to improve his/her performance?
d. What information most surprised you from the interview and was most useful to you?
e. Use the interview to identify lessons for doing management that you would keep in mind if you held a managerial position.
TIPS FOR WRITING YOUR PAPER:
DO:
DON’T:
1. Use subtopic titles to identify main topics or sections of the paper.
2. Use direct quotes from the interview/shadowing to emphasize and connect ideas, and to show that you completed both.
3. Make direct connections between the class topics and things identified in the interview/shadowing.
4. Use correct English words and grammar in your paper to make this a credible research paper.
5. Use correct paragraph structure, meaning that all sentences in a paragraph should support a topic sentence. If a sentence doesn’t support the topic sentence, that means that another paragraph is needed with a different topic sentence or the sentence should be deleted.
1. Write in the first person by using I, me, my, etc. This is a research paper, it’s about the interviewee and not about you.
2. Inject bias into your paper and make the research less credible by establishing a .

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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

3. Why are you
making notes?
Consider the purpose: We take notes for different
purposes but in general it helps with our
understanding.
When it comes to assignments, we are generally
taking notes for two broad purposes:
(1) to help us with a general understanding of a
topic
(2) to record specific information to support an
argument.
Either way it helps to think of some questions you
want to answer before you start reading
4. Question
Analysis
Look at the extract on your worksheet
from a student's assignment and the
assignment question.
Discuss the feedback the lecturer may
have given the student about their
work.
5. Examine the use of Facebook in learning and
teaching for tertiary level students and teachers.
Discuss the impact of Facebook on tertiary
education by outlining both positive and negative

Social media has a number of applications in
education. Students can follow important people on
Twitter to get their views. They can follow You Tubers
who vlog about education and similar on
Instagram. According to Fox (2018) social media is
one of the most underexploited tools by
educators. Additionally, Gornall (2016) argues
that there are a huge amount of positives to using
Facebook in the classroom.

I can see that you have done some research
for this assignment. However, you have not
really answered the specific question set. Instead you
have written a general review of social media in
education, rather than Facebook's application
in university. You have only addressed positive uses of
social media rather than reviewing negatives and have
not established a clear position on the topic.

11. Top Tips
Keep the question in mind, when taking notes for a specific
assignment you will require more details.
Identifying the key argument within a text and making a note
of the supporting evidence is key, as is noting down how this
helps to answer the question that you are trying to answer.
Keep your main research questions at the front of your mind
to stop you getting distracted by the information ‘on offer’.
Read actively – annotate, highlight, use reading grids.
13. Remember to record the:
•Author's name and initials.
•The full name of the chapter, book
or article.
•The name of the journal for printed
articles or of the book for chapters.
•The place of publication.
•The date of publication.
•The publisher.
•The shelf reference or web address.
•It is also useful to keep a record of
the ISBN number at the back of the
book.
