Making Free Online Learning Sustainable Through Reduction of MOOC Production ...Brian Mulligan
This document discusses making MOOCs more sustainable through reducing production costs. It defines MOOCs and outlines their history and growth since 2008. Current MOOC providers are identified and emerging student patterns noted. Advantages like free access globally are weighed against disadvantages like lack of individual instruction. The document examines costs to develop MOOCs and argues they could be cheaper through open platforms and tools. An Intel-funded Irish MOOC project aims to develop free coding courses at low cost through partnerships.
This document summarizes a MOOC on coding for secondary school students in Ireland. It discusses:
1) The goals of developing free online courses in coding for teenagers through the Intel Ireland MOOC Project led by Institute of Technology Sligo and several partner institutions.
2) The four MOOCs to be developed - Web Page Development, Roboslam, Multiplayer Online Game Development, and Mobile Game Development - along with their topics, lead institutions, and pilot schedules.
3) How MOOCs can help augment classroom learning, prepare students for college and careers, and potentially be used in secondary education in Ireland.
The document discusses e-learning, including its definition, benefits, elements, instructional strategies, challenges, types, industry, and models. Specifically, it defines e-learning as the delivery of learning through electronic means using computers or mobile devices. It outlines benefits like flexibility, accessibility to resources, and cost savings.

Applying Gamification Principles to Online Faculty Professional DevelopmentMichael Wilder
This document discusses applying gamification principles to online faculty professional development. It describes challenges with the completion rate of an existing online professional development course for faculty. Gamification elements from games could be used to encourage higher completion rates and build flexibility. These include allowing a non-linear format where modules can be completed in any order, issuing digital badges for achievements, and adding optional "mini-quests". The goal is to make online professional development more engaging for busy faculty by applying principles from game design.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
