Presented at the 2014 Student Affairs and Services Symposium at York.
In July 2011, Ryerson University and York University signed the Inter-University Joint Teaching and Learning Initiative Memorandum of Understanding (“Ryerson-York Initiative”), a historic landmark agreement, establishing a foundation for interinstitutional collaboration in teaching and learning. The Ryerson-York Initiative builds upon both universities’ shared commitment to teaching excellence, positive student experience, institutional collaboration and access to post-secondary education. In particular the agreement aims to promote student mobility and enhance student experience by:
- Facilitating improved access by students of each institution to existing courses/programs offered at the other institution;
- Allowing students at each institution to customize their learning experience through increased choice and accessibility.

Creating Community Outside of Space, Time, & Place: Leveraging the Learning M...Melissa Semione
Online course enrollment is growing while traditional f2f course enrollments continue to decline. Despite the increased demand, online classes can be intimidating for first-time or non-traditional learners as they may feel isolated or uncomfortable navigating the virtual classroom while also trying to juggle academic, economic, and familial obligations. Student engagement and a sense of community are fundamental components of student success as they “increase student satisfaction, enhance student motivation to learn, reduce the sense of isolation, and improves student performance” (Martin, et al). This presentation details a pilot program at SUNY Oswego designed to familiarize students with the online course environment while creating an active and engaging online community for non-traditional learners in online and blended programs.
Orientating Students to Learning Online: Why the Emphasis on Learning MattersSmarterServices Owen

Our goal is to ensure that more children find jobs by being academically and socially ready for their first year of college. The "College Ready" High School to College Pipeline program allows colleges and universities to enroll students that have been acculturated to college, both socially and academically. This program will increase their retention and graduation rates, while decreasing the institution's drop-out rates.

Oxford Area School District and Cecil College, in partnership, established an Early College Academy that enables students the opportunity to receive a high school diploma and an associate degree concurrently. Students, through a cohort approach, are scheduled for courses that fulfill the requirements of both the high school and the college. Attendees received an overview of the Early College Academy program including how students are provided with career awareness, college level study, and community support while they pursue the initial steps of their post-secondary education before high school completion. In addition, presenters detailed a cost effective plan for students, progressively rigorous curriculum, and implemented student supports that allow students to be competitive after high school.

Presented at the 2014 Student Affairs and Services Symposium at York University.
Lizzio’s ‘Five Senses’ to Shape Residents’ First Year Experience. In the Spring of 2013, York’s Residence Life program shifted their student development framework to that of
Alf Lizzio’s (2006) “Five Senses of Successful Transition” focusing on the importance of positive transition and the First Year Experience. This shift strengthened our theoretical base, complimented the Division’s strategic plan, and allowed us to achieve outcomes that we strive for through residence programming. Using Lizzio’s Senses, as well as ACUHO-I and CAS Standards, we developed a student experience model that is institutionally-relevant, theory-based, and assessable. In this session participants will learn about York’s strategy, and gain relevant ideas for their departments.

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
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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
