Elizabeth Alderton and I gave this presentation at the 2010 WiscNet Future Technology Conference.
The presentation focused on three research projects. Two related to integrating online discussion into a traditional face to face class (High school & Undergraduate). The other research project focuses on how classroom teachers are using Twitter for professional development.

Are you interested in creating conversations in your library to facilitate student learning and teacher collaboration? Do you see your library as more than just a place of information objects? Do you want your library to be about experiences and not just “stuff” in the library?
If so, I would like to invite you to my session, Not Just Another Brick in the Wall: Engaging 21st Century Learning Through Participatory School Librarianship, that will take place on 11/06/09 from 2:15PM to 3:30PM. It will be located in room 213BC of the Charlotte Convention Center. We will be engaging in our conversations about how to create conversations for formal learning and the AASL Standards for 21st Century Learners as well as creating conversations with your library community using traditional and Library 2.0 tools.

It provides ideas for teachers getting started in building their own Personal Learning Network (PLN).
This third of four webinars on "Mastering Online Facilitation," originally designed and delivered for SEFLIN, focuses on organizing material, scripting, and preparing/rehearsing for webinars and online meetings. It is designed to model the practices discussed with the learners; leaves plenty of time for interactions with and among the learners; and concludes with resources and suggested activities to help participants apply what they are learning.
This proposed presentation was prepared for delivery at the New Media Consortium Future of Education summit held near Austin, TX January 22-24, 2013. It's based on work I've done with my colleagues Maurice Coleman, Buffy Hamilton, and Jill Hurst-Wahl, and is part of our continuing efforts to support the development of social learning centers onsite and online for libraries and other learning organizations.

Twitter, Tweeting, and Togetherness: The Impact of Social Media on Freshman ...Biola University
This study examines how Twitter is used to build connection among incoming freshman college students to their campus and community. The use of Twitter is examined in light of the theory of Bandura’s social learning theory, Tinto’s three stages, and Astin’s Involvement Theory. This pilot study examines a group of 36 incoming freshmen students who have never used Twitter or have a Twitter account but do not regularly tweet. The study seeks to examine how social media can be used to increase students’ connection to the campus community and leveraged as a medium of peer learning.
BLC10 - Using Twitter to Establish your Personal Learning NetworkLisa Thumann
Liz Davis and I used this slidedeck as we worked with attendees at BLC10 to build their networks on Twitter
Are you wondering what all the fuss is about? Have you tried it and still do not get it? In this session we will focus on the ways Twitter can be harnessed to build a rich and powerful learning community. We will discuss tips and tricks to leverage the potential of this network. Resources will be provided to help attendees set up their own networks during and/or after the session. Finally, we will capitalize on the face-to-face connections within the workshop to further enrich our online learning communities.

Presented at the BIALL Conference 18 June 2009, Emily Allbon gives her paper about connecting with law students via her website Lawbore, her teaching and the use of classroom clickers. Question slides (and answers) from the session are included. For full description of session: http://www.biall.org.uk/pages/session-2a.html
I was assigned to follow 5 accounts on Twitter and write paragraphs about each of the accounts and what they're about. I was also asked to include snapshots of tweets I commented to or about.
Social networking gives teachers an opportunity to engage students in questioning and learning outside the composition classroom. This presentation will showcase how we can use social media as an extension of the classroom to teach students research tactics and conventions, ultimately encouraging students to become informed participants in online communities.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
