My presentation in Bett show 2016
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCSs) are playing an important role in university strategy discussions since they offer new learning opportunities and can change teaching practices. Despite the overall impact of these courses in the higher education system is still unknown, there is an emerging teaching practice that considers the use of MOOC content and activities as part of formal learning courses in face-to-face universities. These practices convey diverse types of hybrid methodological combinations. These emerging scenarios are worth exploring to understand the potential and challenges of the phenomena. To contribute to this understanding, in this talk I will present our research about the use of MOOC resources (basically videos) in blended learning practices in the higher education sector

Teaching and learning with Internet-supported technologies - Course syllabusJoan E. Hughes, Ph.D.
In the course participants will examine a myriad of ways the Internet may function within teaching and learning contexts through internet-supported technologies (e.g., web, apps etc.). The course will focus on these technologies’ capabilities for instructional use, learning, professional development, and research. The course will provide a set of foundational readings to situate your thinking in this educative space. Then you will lead your own experiences with a diverse array of Internet-based instructional and learning tools; it will also encourage you to consider these tools with a critical eye, always determining the advantages and disadvantages of using particular web-supported or web-based tools.
This course focuses on the role of Internet-based technologies within face-to-face or hybrid learning situations and mostly within PK-12 realms. For all uses we consider, we will use the following questions (as well as any you offer) to structure our analysis of Internet uses:
• What assumptions about the nature of knowledge and learning does this innovation make (either explicitly or implicitly)?
• What unique role does the technology play in facilitating learning?
• How is this innovation seen to fit with existing school curriculum (e.g., Is the innovation intended to supplement or supplant existing curriculum? Is it intended to enhance the learning of something already central to the curriculum or some new set of understandings or competencies?)
• What demands does the innovation place on the knowledge of teachers or other “users”? What knowledge supports does the innovation provide?
• How does the technology fit or interact with the social context of learning? (e.g., Are computers used by individuals or groups? Does the technology support collaboration or individual work? What sorts of interaction does the technology facilitate or hinder? Does it change or reify social systems?)
Course goals include:
• Understanding the historical context of uses of the Internet and Web for teaching and learning
• Experiencing what it is like to be an actor in the ‘participatory’ or ‘semantic’ or ‘connected’ culture of the Web
• Developing a critical framework for evaluating web uses in educational contexts
• Interpreting (i.e., reading, understanding, interpreting, adapting) educational research that focuses on teaching/learning with the Internet-supported technologies
This course is not about fully online or distance education topics. If you are interested in that topic, consider taking LT’s “Online Learning” course(s).
This presentation highlights the use of open educational resources (OER) to help raise awareness of historic and modern slavery. Resources are provided in different formats to encourage use by teachers in secondary, further education, higher education and in communities.
This presentation was prepared for the Faculty of Education PhD Symposium at the University of Hull. The confirmation and the final viva are the two milestones to defend your research on the PhD journey within a British higher education institution. While there will be differences within the UK, this presentation offers one perspective.

Online Educa Berlin 2014: Institutional Transition Towards Increased Technolo...Margaret Korosec
This presentation reflects on three scenarios of change towards increased use of technology to enhance learning. It questions institutional strategy and the role of change facilitators who are actively changing with or without infrastructure or operational structures.
This slide presentation was part of a Learnshop at Online Educa Berlin 2013. This was an interactive, discussion based session:
Competency-based education addresses the rising cost of education and supports employability of graduates. It offers a path for adults to accelerate degree completion by acknowledging prior learning and work experience. Until recently, prior learning has meant transfer credit from a different educational institution. Although this is still relevant, it is expanding to include consideration of learning via open educational resources and MOOCs. Can these also be incorporated as part of an accredited degree program? Work in small groups with the expert panel in this dynamic and interactive Learnshop to grow your theoretical and practical understanding of competency-based higher education and develop thinking on implementation of this model in a European context.
GUIDE Association 2013: Competency-Based Education - Leveraging educational t...Margaret Korosec
Competency-based education is gaining momentum in the United States. In Europe, however, the Bologna Accord with time-based / seat-time mandates restricts the growth and acceptance of new models of education that may help address economic needs. This presentation shares existing models of higher education that are addressing the needs of the markets they are in and provides ideas for how new models could fit within the European context.

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

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.

Online Collaboration using VoiceThread
1. Virtual Voices:
Collaboration in an online
environment using VoiceThread
Presentation for Undergraduate Module
Decoding the Digital Society
University of Hull
By Margaret Korosec, PhD Student and eLearning Strategist
17 February 2014
3. Overview
• Why should we collaborate online?
• How do we collaborate online?
• Useful technology?
• Case study
• Year 6 class in Hull, UK
• Example: from introduction to collaboration in 30
seconds
• Further resources
4. Why Collaborate?
• Cognitive processing occurs when interacting with other
students (Piaget, 1932).
• Scaffolding or guided participation enables students to
learn from one another (Vygotsky, 1978).
• Increased effort when working with other students
(Slavin, 1983).
• By constructing knowledge together student collaboration
leads to new learning opportunities (Barron, 2000).
• According to Kearney, M. Schuck, S., Burden, K., &
Aubusson, P. (2012) collaboration is one part of a
pedagogical framework for mobile learning, along with
personalisation and authenticity.

6. How to Collaborate
One way of online collaboration is using VoiceThread.
What’s a VoiceThread anyway?
http://voicethread.com/about/features/
http://voicethread.com/about/library/
7. How to Collaborate
A VoiceThread is a collaborative, interactive,
multimedia slide show that holds images,
documents, and videos. It allows participants to
navigate through media chosen by the creator
(teacher or student), such as a presentation or just
one image, and leave comments in several ways:
recording voice (with a microphone), typing text, or
recording video (via a webcam).
8. Useful
Technology?
Technology
can get in the way…
but it does not have to!
Just be prepared.

9. technology
The following ought to be considered with any online technology:
…students have access;
…teachers know how to use the online tool;
…contributions are saved (often “automagically”….);
…understand limitations of free access (no analytics and limited
creations);
…look into enterprise licenses if deemed useful for your school
(useful analytics and unlimited creations);
…consider integration into your school system.

11. Case study
2013/2014 Academic Year:
•As Technology-Enhanced Learning Coordinator, the
presenter introduced VoiceThread to teachers at a secondary
school in Hull, UK.
•As ICT Teacher, the presenter introduced VoiceThread to a
Year 6 class.
-- We will take a closer look at the Year 6 class --
12. Case study
• VoiceThread was introduced to a Year 6 class after completing
two lessons on the importance of using keywords in internet
research. This was also the first instance of using VoiceThread
in the school and the Year 6 students were eager to be involved
with this experiment.
• The point of this instance of VoiceThread was to reflect on the
important messages from the previous lessons and to share
these ideas with classmates.
13. Case study
• There were some technical issues with integration into the school
virtual learning environment (VLE) and student information system
(SIS).
• However, once in the VoiceThread, the students quickly and
independently learned how to upload an avatar or image, figured out
how to doodle, understood how to type comments and voice record.
• The following slides show how the students answered the question but
also learned the functionality and potential.
• In a class of 27 students, one lesson ended up with 77 comments.
Students returned to comment on their own time outside of class or
during homework club.
