Bridging the digital divide: How schools can prepare students to be good digi...williamslibrary
Abstract
As technology moves at a rapid pace it is important to review how students from low socio economic areas are catered for. Schools in these areas face many challenges; how they address these issues impacts on the students’ participation and skills as digital and global citizens. The government is implementing policies and funding to reduce the digital divide, but is it enough to prepare students from low socio economic areas to function effectively as digital citizens.
Twitter as Scholarship: How Not To Get Fired (Much)Bonnie Stewart
How can scholars and academics find use and value in the fraught networked public sphere that Twitter embodies? This presentation - a public talk delivered at La Trobe University in Melbourne Australia, October 2016 - explores both the benefits and risks of Twitter, and examines its operations at the intersection of orality and literacy.
As the hype cycle around MOOCs drops, the question of what narratives will survive and thrive around MOOCs opens up. This keynote panel presentation for #MRI13 suggests there are two solitudes in the post-MOOC-hype discussion - one an empty picture of undeliverable promises for higher ed, and the other a loose affiliation of complicated and sometimes conflicting interests. The lot of us on the latter side need to learn to talk to each other, to the public, and to decision-makers.
Networked Educators & Learners: Who are we now that we're online?Bonnie Stewart
What's involved in being an identity online, and what new literacies are required to thrive in this new ethos? What does it mean to be a teacher AND a learner all at once, and how does education shift when we think of it as a participatory activity?
Getting Past Preaching to the Choir: #Ed1to1 as a Model for Scaffolding Meani...Bonnie Stewart
A #COHERE16 presentation on why & how to engage learners - beyond self-selecting early adopters - in the practice of networked participation in a space like Twitter.

This presentation explores how we can use communicative, collaborative, interactive web environments to advance our students linguistic and intercultural skills.
My presentation for the MISBO 2015 conference in Asheville, NC about current trends in Education Technology and factors needed for #edtech implementation success.
(Abstract) At the core of the new ACRL Framework for Information Literacy is the educational theory of threshold concepts, according to which every discipline contains "troublesome" concepts that stand as barriers to learning. Accordingly, by identifying these barriers and directing our teaching towards them, educators can foster deeper understanding and appreciation of complex subjects. In light of the new ACRL Framework's adoption of threshold concepts, this presentation from a former member of the Framework Task Force will offer a critical assessment of the applicability of threshold concepts to information literacy.
This presentation will argue that the six "frames" of information literacy are underdetermined, they fail to distinguish concepts from skills, they are too relative to individual student experiences to provide general guidance, and they reduce information literacy to a single discipline. This last point is especially important insofar as the new Framework removes our ability to think of information literacy as a general, interdisciplinary set of critical thinking skills.
Ultimately, through its insistence on threshold concepts as first principles, the new ACRL Framework moves away from its promise of holism and instead becomes inward-looking and exclusionary. Thankfully, the Framework is malleable enough that with a few modifications to threshold concept theory, an increased sensitivity to student learning differences, and close attention to the cross-disciplinary relevance of information literacy, there is something to salvage. Rather than accept the ACRL Framework uncritically, we owe it to ourselves and our students to ask tough questions.

Digital Ethics or The End of The Age of Legends v4Darren Kuropatwa
Slide deck in support of a conversation with educators about how to embed the teaching of digital ethics across the curriculum and holding up a mirror to our own ethical online behaviour before becoming too critical of the students who learn from us.
Held at the Building Learning Communities Conference in Boston, MA. 16 July 2014.
We live in an age where everything is recorded digitally – in pictures, video, and text – live as it happens; it's the end of the age of legends. "Selfie", according to the Oxford dictionary, is the word of the year 2013. Often the selfies our students are sharing aren't putting their best digital foot forward. As teachers, how can we help our students leave digital footprints they can be proud of? Is only sharing your "best stuff" such a good idea? How do we address the issue of digital ethics across the curriculum and in our classrooms?

A workshop presentation delivered for the CILIP Kent branch on 5.11.15. Session covered how people use the internet and how social media use can be orientated around this.
A stripped down version of a presentation I gave to students in Latvia - it's a fantastic time to be shaping the profession of librarianship, so this slide-deck is about the world and the way it's changing, trends for the future, and how to make the most of being a librarian.
This presentation, prepared for the Library Directors' meeting organized by the Library of Virginia September 19-20, 2012 in Richmond, VA, is one of three jointly delivered by Paul Signorelli and Maurice Coleman.
During the past year, the phenomenon of Massive Open Online Courses – or MOOCs – has been a trend du jour within academia. Framed by co-founder George Siemens as “the Internet happening to education,” MOOCs offer a lens through which to explore how escalating complexity and information abundance impact 21st century higher ed.
Alternately hailed and derided as a disruptive revolution in higher education, MOOCs make visible the fault lines emerging in contemporary academia. Because not only are networked practices encroaching on and expanding the boundaries of conventional educational institutions: so is neoliberalism.
In this keynote for #WILU2013, Dave Cormier and Bonnie Stewart trace a narrative path through the various ways MOOCs challenge institutional education models, focusing particularly on the digital, networked practices that MOOCs were originally intended to embody. They outline rhizomatic and networked models of learning, and the conceptual structures that underpin education as a massive, open, and online enterprise.
This presentation discusses:
- Online Learning communities
- A particular learning community that we built
- How that learning community was used
A lot of the principles, problems and lessons apply to any learning community, whether you create it in your VLE, on facebook, on Ning or just on a blog or a wiki. Whatever technology you use, there are principles here that you should be able to apply.
Probably, most importantly, this is about building a learning community that works. Because, in many cases, they don't.

How can you augment people’s natural capabilities with social tools to build relationships into a modern source of influence, creating more energy than they consume?
Roadmap to Blended Learning (4 Nov 2011)Wesley Fryer
Where are we headed in K-12 education with respect to technology and learning? What are the vehicles ("ships" in this metaphor using the Waldseemüller map) that will take us into this future? What activities should characterize effective blended learning in the future? These are Wesley Fryer's slides for a presentation on these topics for New York educational leaders in November 2011.
Connecting beyond content - The Impact of the Digital on Higher EdDave Cormier
This talk by Dave Cormier and Bonnie Stewart for the T3 conference at St. Norbert College, explores the ways in which digital technologies open up that “how” of teaching and learning to enable new structures and forms for communications. Digital tools, concepts, and practices open up the walls of classrooms and of scholarship, and thus have far more significant - and hopeful, if complex - implications for academia than content-based debates allow us to grapple with. This presentation will outline ways in which digital networks fundamentally challenge traditional narratives surrounding higher education, and frame possibilities that arise when we think of education in terms of connection rather than content. It will examine what it means to succeed as learners, scholars, and institutions in a time of knowledge abundance, and open up ideas for ways forward.
Teacher Education, K-12 Education and the Massive Open Online Course Dave Cormier
Presentation at the 44th Canadian Society for the Study of Education (CSSE) Conference by Dave Cormier and Bonnie Stewart. A review of MOOCs from their coining in 2008 to practical uses in the field of Higher Education. Discusses MOOC narratives of solutionism, disruption and unbundling. Includes MOOCs as open access, open accreditation, Niche MOOCs and important trends on the horizon.
With apologies to the great twentieth century philosopher, Don Henley, this talk looks back to the reasons we did learn and looks forward to some of the ways technology might help us to learn for the future.
Embracing uncertainty: collaboration as learningDave Cormier
Keynote for AACUSS conference at UPEI. Great audience feedback... some of it was included in the uploaded powerpoint. Did some work breaking out the cynefin framework.
Presentation features rhizomatic stuff focused on a student services audience.
Five things I think I think
The best teaching prepares people for dealing with uncertainty
The community can be the curriculum – learning when there is no answer
The rhizome is a model for learning for uncertainty
Rhizomatic learning works in the complex domain
We need to make students responsible for their own learning (and the learning of others)
Social Media for Small Business - those you know and those you don'tDave Cormier
A presentation done in Charlottetown addressing the two main types of audiences in social media. The people you know... and those you don't. It attempts to address the different ways in which these people can form a relationahiop with your business.
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”.

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.
