You can’t engage them if you don’t know what they are thinking. Review new technologies to engage alumni and how to use them to effectively engage your alumni. Are you sending the right things? Too many emails? Learn more about the most effective tools for communicating with alumni of any age group. Even your grandmother Twitters!

Creating Learning Communities and Developing Critical Thinking Through Online...CIEE
As we seek to reinvent study abroad for the 21st century, a more meaningful use of digital learning, including online courses, is a logical approach. From predeparture to re-entry, online instruction has great potential to deeply inform and even transform the study abroad experience on multiple levels. This session provides a framework for creating online discussion-board activities to encourage learning communities and critical thinking. Optimal instructor engagement also will be addressed. Data from our own courses and a bibliography will be included. Attendees will investigate the implications for their own programs through a guided discussion.
This was a presentation I gave to administrators and instructors at UIC College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, as they debated putting more courses online.

"Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" Strategies for Making the Transit...Kaitlin Walsh
This presentation will highlight some of the strategies that Charter Oak State College has adopted for translating traditional on-ground teaching methods to an online environment. In on-ground courses, faculty already know how to engage their students by way of “traditional” face-to-face methods. But when a course moves online, adapting “traditional” methods simply requires using those methods as a compass. Online education may be the future, but entering the future does not mean forgetting the past.
Presented as part of our "Blended Learning" month at PLU, this presentation covers the basics of blended learning and why it is an effective means of instruction.

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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
