Industrial training is an important aspect of training for professions that requires practitioners to develop skills for different purposes among which are skills for the operation of machines and hand tools; skills for manipulation of materials for complex and simple techniques and for production of and repair of damaged equipment. Broadly, professions in this category could be placed under technical and vocational education and example could include optical technology, dental technology, plumbing, carpentry and a host of engineering and health related vocations. Industrial training means the training (mostly skills acquisition) obtained from industries by student as part of the requirements to be met before graduation. Students go to learn under the tutelage of a more experienced person in the industry and this is essentially to connect school knowledge with real life experiences as it is in the industries. Industries could be an engineering workshop, laboratory, surgeries or a manufacturing plant.

Graduate School Cyber Portfolio: The Innovative Menu For Sustainable Developmentacijjournal
In today’s milieu, new demands and trends emerge in the field of Education giving teachers of Higher Education Institutions (HEI’s) no choice but to be innovative to cope with the fast changing technology. To be naturally innovative, a graduate school teacher needs to be technologically and pedagogically competent. One of the ways to be on this level is by creating his cyber portfolio to support students’ eportfolio for lifelong learning. Cyber portfolio is an innovative menu for teachers who seek out strategies to integrate technology in their lessons. This paper presents a straightforward preparation on how to innovate a cyber portfolio that has its practical and breakthrough solution against expensive and inflexible vended software which often saddle many universities. Additionally, this cyber portfolio is free and it addresses the 21st century skills of graduate students blended with higher order thinking skills, multiple intelligence, technology and multimedia.

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.

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.
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

3. I. Introduction
Community development is a structured intervention that gives communities greater
control over the conditions that affect their lives. This does not solve all the problems faced
by a local community, but human resources development build up confidence to tackle
such problems as effectively as any local action can.
Community capacity is an important consideration in community development as the
process of community development itself often results in increased capacity. Therefore, the
two are interrelated but distinct. Combined or separate, they both have a great deal to do
with developing potential and enhancing community living. The open e-learning gateway
was designed to look at community development, realizing that capacity building and
other processes often get confused with it.
The Open E-learning Gateway is created to deliver the knowledge of Community experts to
our fresh graduates freely. It supports not only the understanding and effective application
of the business market needs, challenges, and requirements but also community
development, and capacity building concepts and principles. It comprises all forms of
electronically supported learning and teaching. The Information and communication
systems, whether networked or not, serve as specific media to implement the learning
process.
II. Needs/Problems
Starting with our universities and institutes and its curriculum that depends on memorization
and the lack of innovation and random education without regard to labor market needs,
and the style of thinking that builds a general culture that affects the search for work.
Around 2500,000 young people from within the labor force are in danger of stated
unemployment, without going into the accounts of disguised unemployment, which much
more than this figure.
In the same time, the Market is struggling to recruit and retain appropriately skilled staff, with
increased complexity and new policy incentives meaning that organizations need staff with
increased expertise and speed.
To reach our target of developing the community and building its capacity, it was
important to define the circumstances that led to that gap:
1- Using old and traditional educational methods.
2- Fresh graduates don't have clear vision of the requirement of the labor market and
how to obtain these skills.
3- Limited alignment between education and labor market needs, and poor skills of
graduates for the labor market.
4- The lack of professional leading and directing during the educational process.
5- The common culture of collecting certificates and degrees instead of gaining the
required skills.
6- The memorization method as a general teaching method, which buried the initiative
and creativity and self-development of the learners.
7- Weakness of the teaching of languages and information for students, causing a
language gap separating the information for the needs of the graduate job market
8- Student in other capitals in Egypt don't get the full chance to take competitive learning.
Page 3 of 11
4. 9- The government rules make some limitations to developing curriculums to meet market
requirements .
10- Issues such as time, funding (particularly when travel is involved), distance and the
dispersed nature of community service organizations provide significant barriers to
training.
III. Goals/Objectives
Providing non-profit Open E-learning Gateway will help decreasing that gap. Introducing
the suitable courses, materials, visions, and updates of the rapidly changing business world,
will help to compensate the difference between the skills and knowledge of our young
people and the professional business world. It will also provide appropriate materials that
will help too
Our goal of this project is to maximize the result in improvements in proficiency and
efficiency.
1- Provide Professional development for fresh graduates in a term of high quality of E-
learning.
2- Helping the fresh graduates to define their career path, and to gain required skills,
knowledge and behavior through a group of experts and professionals.
3- Delivering a free and open gateway for trainees, and community service volunteers
4- Providing professional and skilled man power.
5- Delivering accredited certification to those who successfully complete certain level to
ensure they meet the proficiency standards.
6- Increase individuals and organization sharing in community development.
7- Delivering the Concepts and behaviors of urbanization, citizenship and respect for
others and apply these concepts in Contemporary Egyptian society.
8- Developing Professions that is essential, incompetence or new to labor market.
9- Applying the concept of Higher interest above personal interest to develop the society
and increasing the productivity.

9. VIII. Evaluation
Donald Kirkpatrick pioneered the most widely used model for evaluating training programs
around the world.
Kirkpatrick created four levels of evaluation.
Level 1. Reaction
This is an evaluation of the learner's experience of the e-learning, and is normally collected
using a questionnaire.
Level 2. Learning
This level measures learning results. Did the trainee actually learn the knowledge, skills and
attitudes the E-learning.
Level 3. Behavior / transfer to the job
This level measures the trainee's ability to transfer what they have learned back to the job.
Did their
behavior change.
Level 4. Business results
This level evaluates the impact of the training on business results.

10. IX. Appendix
Benefits of E-learning
The application of e-learning solutions to meet business and industry workforce
development needs
continues to grow rapidly with e-learning fast becoming a central component of
workplace learning.
Key business drivers identified for the implementation of e-learning were to increase staff
knowledge,
provide online access to training materials, reduce costs and time associated with training
in the long term and ensure quality and consistency of training.
Research suggests that there is no significant difference in educational outcome between
e-learning and traditional classroom training, which means that your training goal can be
reached irrespective of the training methodology.
However, e-learning offers significant economic and social advantages over traditional
classroom training. These benefits are listed below.
Anytime, anywhere, any place. Using CD-ROM or Internet technologies, e-learning
can be delivered on demand, when and where it is needed, both on-site and off-site.
Because of the nature of e-learning with its visual and auditory reinforcement of
information, and individualized feedback mechanisms, the time taken to learn the
information is significantly reduced. Research indicates time reduction of the order of 30–
50% is common. Because Student spend less time training.
E-learning also can be delivered as ‘just in time’ training, reducing the period between the
learning and application of the knowledge or skills, which enhances the learning process. In
some cases the e-learning course can be delivered while the learner is on the job.
Consistency of training. We all know that the effectiveness of the training can depend
on the caliber of the trainer. In developing an e-learning course you can utilize the skills and
knowledge of your best trainer and subject matter experts. This level of training is delivered
to everyone consistently, from user to user and from session to session. E-learning also can
compensate for a shortage of skilled trainers.
Increased payback. E-learning is an investment that increases its payback during its
lifetime, as its primary costs are incurred during development.
Delivery and maintenance costs are relatively low. Therefore, unlike instructor-led learning
or paper-based communication, the per user costs for e-learning decrease each time the
course is used. Most research indicates an average cost saving on training is in the range of
25–65%.
No-risk environment. E-learning can realistically simulate work, laboratory or field
environments that may be hazardous or otherwise inaccessible. E-learning simulations allow
trainees to safely master skills before applying them in actual, potentially hazardous
situations (such as using flight simulators to train pilots).
Page 10 of 11
11. Flexible access. E-learning accommodates individual styles of working and learning, and
allows
learners to access and review the lessons they need at times convenient to them. This self-
directed
approach puts people in control of their learning. This equality of access by all involved in
the training is one of the important and appealing aspects of e-learning. And unlike face-
to-face training, e-learning can be revisited by the learner as often as they desire.
Reinforcement. Research indicates that 20% of information is retained after six weeks in a
traditional classroom setting, but up to 70% is retained when e-learning approaches allow
learners to ‘see, hear and do'.
E-learning can result in a deeper understanding and positive attitudes towards the subject
area.
Learners participate where they live and work, retaining an orientation to their surroundings.
They are typically more comfortable in expressing their opinions, leading to more frequent,
yet higher quality discussions when compared to traditional settings.
Motivation. Interactive lessons are advantageous for skill building because the computer
has the ability to provide immediate feedback to the learner's questions or responses, and
take the learner through the steps to find the right answer. Media elements, such as video,
animation and sound, get the learners involved more quickly and keep them motivated to
continue.
Experience indicates learners who feel shy or intimidated in a traditional classroom setting,
or who may be resentful of their trainer, are more likely to participate in a virtual setting.
There are similar benefits for minority groups.
Time to market. Because e-learning can be distributed or accessed through the web,
training can rapidly be shared with others, and can also be updated frequently and kept
current.
Monitoring of the learning process. Most e-learning allows instant and easy
monitoring of the progress of learners, particularly when it is combined with a learning
management system.
Such monitoring may be critical for areas where there may be legal implications, such as
induction training and occupational health and safety training. The evidence for e-
learning's effectiveness and efficiency is compelling.
