Online writing feedback: A national study exploring the service and learning ...Studiosity.com
Professor Chris Tisdell, Scientia Education Academy Fellow at the University of New South Wales (...and YouTube star, mathematician, former DJ...) kicked off the day by talking student word choice, feedback, and psychology, and wellbeing.
Chris presented findings from a national study which used the feedback from students from more than 20 universities. Why? After every Studiosity session, students give feedback. That feedback from students needs to be analysed and used in practical ways (especially recalling Associate Professor Phill Dawson on Day One, who discussed the importance of feedback literacy and translating it into action.) Online, 24/7 support is needed as much to fulfil student expectations for their overall university service experience, as it is needed for delivering learning outcomes.

In this sense, this study aims to collect preliminary data on the usage of PollEverywhere by faculty members at Howard University, a well-known HBCU, that can be used as a basis for further explorations.

At Studiosity's "Students First 2019" Symposium:
Online academic support & student retention: Early signs of a positive correlation at CQUniversity CQUniversity has found indications of a positive correlation between Studiosity usage and retention, when compared to retention rates in the general student cohort. This presentation will walk through these findings and offer some useful food for thought.
Chris Veraa is Director of Student Experience at CQUniversity, and brought the room three years (2017, 2018, 2019) worth of data on Studiosity users: retention, academic success, rates of unit failure, and also how students’ anecdotal feedback compares to academic outcomes.
CQUniversity Studiosity users (on average):
• Have a 16.45% higher rate of retention than the cohort
• Experience 21.7% less unit failure than the cohort
• Are 17.31% less likely to be placed on academic probation than the cohort

The Intersection between Professor Expectations and Student Interpretations o...Melanie Parlette-Stewart
Numerous studies exist on how and to what extent course instructors in higher education are embedding or directly teaching writing, learning and research skills in their courses (Cilliers, 2011; Crosthwaite et al., 2006; and Mager and Sproken-Smith, 2014). Yet, disparity within the literature demonstrates that there is no consistent approach to the scaffolded development of these necessary skills within courses, programs, disciplines, or across disciplines. Preliminary research has also revealed that professor communication of expected or required student skills is often limited or unclear (McGuinnes, 2006).
Through a collaborative research project at the University of Guelph, we employed a multidisciplinary and multi-skill approach to explore the intersection between professor articulation and student interpretation of academic skills. Through this research, we have identified that, in the teaching and learning in third year university courses, discrepancies exist
a. between the learning, writing and research skills professors expect students to possess and the skills students think they possess when they enter the course;
b. in professor articulation of skills they will teach in their course and which skills they expect students to develop outside of class time;
c. in the skills students seek to develop based on their interpretation of the course outline; and
d. in students’ ability to identify necessary skills before and after taking these courses.
Based on these findings, we recommend that a curriculum-based approach to understanding the skill development needs of students can assist in bridging the gap between professor expectations and student interpretations of skill requirements.
Throughout this research presentation, we will present an overview of our research project; present our key findings; offer initial interpretations on student understandings of course outlines; demonstrate the value of cross-unit and cross-departmental collaborations; and offer recommendations and potential areas for further research. After our presentation, we will welcome dialogue and questions.
Technology-enhanced assessment and feedback: What should (and shouldn’t) we b...Christopher Deneen
Innovation in learning engagement and the challenges of massification are timely concerns in higher education. These connected areas have particular impact on assessment and feedback. Technology enhanced assessment and feedback (TEAF) is an emergent meeting place for digital learning and assessment of, as and for learning. While TEAF is an area rich with opportunity, it is also fraught with challenges. Drawing on findings his multi-national research and practice, Dr. Christopher Deneen critically engages with both the opportunities and challenges of TEAF.
Utilizing Rubrics in Audio/Visual ProductionCorey Anderson
During the 2016-2017 school year, it became apparent to me that my students at Watkins Overton High School in Memphis, TN, might enjoy a greater sense of academic achievement if they had a better understanding of what was required to receive a rating of Proficient or Advanced when their artifacts are assessed. In the Audio/Visual Production field, these artifacts are almost always something the student must create. I am specifically interested in improving their commercials and public service announcements. Although, high school students have a lot of competing interests, providing rubrics for assignments would give them a way to focus their energy when completing projects and provide a way for them to assess the quality of their own work before submitting it for assessment. Their attention to detail and quality has further implications for post-secondary success. Rallying behind the mantra, Destination 2025! In the year, 2025, our school district’s goal is to have 80% of graduates, college and career ready, 90% graduating on time and 100% of college and career ready graduates will enroll in post-secondary opportunities (Shelby County Schools, n.d.). What tools can I actively use to help my students get the advantage in life and become champions at work? The purpose of this paper is to determine can developing and utilizing rubrics with my high school A/V Production students help improve the quality of their films for public service announcements and commercials. These are my Next Steps.

Introductory remarks for the panel with Royal Caribbean, Princess Cruises, MSC Cruises USA, and Norwegian Cruise Line--annual sales and marketing chief panel
The connected consumer has emerged as a result of three key trends. The first two are the intersection of mobile technology and social media, which has allowed us to expand and consult our network as never before. From purchase decisions to everyday hedonic consumption experiences, we share our daily lives with our friends and acquaintances. From meals to life milestones, our network is with us digitally. The result of these two trends leads to the third: self expression. This session overviews primary research on this topic with tangible examples of best practices in mobile and social for connected consumers.
Takeaways
1. Initial study findings on psychographics of social media users
2. Interpersonal characteristics and tendency to share of the connected consumer.
3. Best practices from digital marketers enabling self-expression.

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.
