Information literacy and the future of workInformAll
Presentation given as invited talk at the European Conference on Information Literacy (ECIL), October 2017. The presentation explores the possible relevance of information literacy to the changing nature of work, and how it might contribute to equipping workforces to deal with the opportunities and threats associated with rapidly-changing economic environments - including flexibility, innovation, the gig economy, casualisation, insecurity and employment rights.

Presented by Bobby Bothmann, Minnesota State University, Mankato for Peer Council 2019 on June 3rd at Madison Public Library in Madison, WI
Budgets, personnel, technology, services, and information-seeking behavior are some of the factors that influence today’s libraries. During this session, we will look at some of the historical technologies, processes, and trends in cataloging and examine how they panned out. We will use that information to identify and discuss current technologies, processes, and trends to see where we might be going and how advocacy might help us change fate.

Perspectives on the Information Literate UniversitySheila Webber
This was presented by Sheila Webber (Sheffield University Information School) at an internal seminar at the Open University, Milton Keynes, UK, on 29 March 2011. After unpacking the concept of information literacy, I look at contextual aspects of information literacy: the disciplinary perspective, the teaching perspective and the learner perspective. I finish by presenting the picture of the Information Literate University that was developed some years ago by Bill Johnston and me.
The changing nature of scholarly resources, knowledge access, rising expectations of end users and public services staff asked us to revisit opportunities for academic libraries as gateways, archives, place, buyers, universal digital library infrastructure, etc.
If we say that each media type requires new devices, equipment, computing power and others to create, process, manage, publish, and display its content, then the increasingly digital nature of library resources demand similar capability.
In the presentation, the answer to meet these challenges facing metadata services lie in 1) treating info as product; 2) providing support for a well-established, ubiquitous, pervasive, reliable, configurable, robust, and public accessible information infrastructure and computing environment, which integrate people, organizations, processes, data, information, and technologies in such a coherent manner that the objectives of a digital library can be performed, measured and controlled at the lowest meaningful and atomic level; 3) providing support for relevant, engaged, and customized information contents and services, which cover all resources, all vocabularies, and all languages to any given user at any time with critical mass in compliance with control objectives and process maturity measures for info systems and enterprise architecture defined by COBIT 5.0, TOGAF 9.0, and leveraged by library-specific IT industry; and 4) empowering the whole brain team using leadership, communication skills, project management, analytical skills, collaboration, and teamwork.
Keynote presentation at the Lita Forum, Albuquerque. Research and learning practices are enacted in technology rich environments. New tools support digital workflows and the volume and variety of research and learning outputs are growing. Libraries are working to support these new environments and to connect their services to them.

Managing research data is a hot topic in academic libraries. With increased government oversight of publicly-funded research projects, librarians must strive to meet the demand for innovative solutions for managing research information and training the new eneration of librarians to address this issue.

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.

2. TODAY
In this course you will explore the current relationships between
libraries and their stakeholders seeking institutional support managing
their research data. Data-intensive science and research are providing
opportunities for new roles to emerge for information professionals. This
course explores these roles and services, and uses the case study
method to prepare participants from all academic backgrounds for roles
in scientific research data management. This course aims to help
prepare information professionals for engaging with scientists and for
developing data management plans for their stakeholders' research
projects. The course examines the data practices of researchers in
scientific fields such as biomedicine and engineering to illustrate how
researchers produce data, and how other researchers re-use these
data for purposes of inquiry. We will explore the information tools used
for research data management planning, research, data, and graduate
student lifecycles, and we will explore a variety of strategies information
professionals are using to provide data consultancy services to their
institutions' researchers.
