This document discusses a study on the use of social media, specifically Facebook and YouTube, in physical education (PE) classes at a high school. A survey of 45 PE students found that most use Facebook and YouTube in their daily lives and see benefits to using them for PE, such as increased accessibility to course content and discussion. However, some reported drawbacks like distractions. Overall, social media was found to increase students' homework completion and understanding of PE content. The document proposes improvements and expanding social media integration across other classes.

Do Coffee Beans Go Bad?
If you buy coffee beans, green or roasted, to make coffee at home you don’t want them to go bad. Do coffee beans go bad? There are two issues with bad coffee beans. One is poorly sorted beans after picking and the other is improper storage in transit or in your home.
Stinkers and Other Beans Gone Bad
There is an excellent article at TCC about defected beans. There are black beans and earthy beans, moldy beans and peasy beans. You want to avoid rioy beans, sour beans, stinker beans and whitish beans as well.
Black Beans
Black beans, where the interior of the bean is also more or less completely black depending on the severity of the attack, are beans having undergone a yeast fermentation starting at the epidermis; the surface of the bean is covered with minute holes surrounded by mineral micro crystals, left after enzymatic degradation of cellulose. The more serious the damage, the blacker is the interior of the bean.
Earthy Beans
The presence of 2-methylisoborneol, a secondary metabolite of Actinomycetes, Cyanobacteria and molds, has been associated with the earthy flavor of robusta coffee.
The levels present in robusta coffee are at least three times as high as in arabica (Vitzthum et al., 1990). These data indicate that robusta taste results, at least partially, from contamination by microorganisms rather than from specific aroma components.
Moldy Beans
A mould/yeast level above 105/g is always associated with mustiness in flavor. Geosmin, identified in a heavily rioy and musty tasting sample of Portorican coffee, is probably the substance responsible for moldiness in beans (Spadone et al., 1990).

Social media in the classroom yay or nay course technology computing confer...Cengage Learning
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Oh My! What is it? How do I use it? Should it be used in the classroom? Social media is as much as part of today's society as the television. The main question is do these social media tools belong in the classroom? In this presentation, I will discuss how using social media as an educational tool can be beneficial to the instructor and the students. I teach the “right” way to use these tools while allowing students additional ways to interact with me and their classmates. What are your thoughts and concerns of using these new mediums in the classroom? Is it ethical? Do you feel we are evading students' “personal space”? I'll explain and demonstrate how I use popular social media tools in my classes and open the room to discussion on whether or not we should allow them into our classroom.

Course Tech 2013, Melinda Doty, Facebook in the Classroom - Love it or Hate it? Cengage Learning
Facebook. As much as some people would like to ignore it, it is thoroughly ingrained in today’s society. I use this
popular social networking tool to encourage interaction among my students. Whether it is a conversation about
a current event or the latest assignment, I find it a great way to get the class talking! What are your thoughts and
concerns with using this new medium in the classroom? Is it ethical?Are we are invading students’“personal space”?
I’ll demonstrate how I use Facebook Groups to promote more interaction in all my classes (face-to-face and online),
assist with setup of your own Facebook group and open the room to discussion on whether or not we should allow
this popular social networking tool into our classrooms.

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.

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.

2. Background
• CTS and I have been teaching level 1-3 PE with a "flipped learning" approach
• We deliver our flipped approach using Facebook groups as our "base" for each year level, then
upload videos we create to this group
• Although we know this style can boost achievement levels, we wanted to take a closer look at the use
of social media in our learning area, in particular how students feel about our use of Facebook and
YouTube and its effect on their learning at school and at home
• We surveyed 45 NCEA PE students from level 1-3 asking ten questions about their experiences using
social media in our classes
• We are hoping to use the feedback to improve the way we use social media in PE and encourage
other teachers and learning areas to embrace social media as a real tool in and out of the classroom

5. What do you like about the use of Facebook
in PE? [sample of student responses]
• We can get an idea of what to expect in class.We are able to discuss PE topics easily with the class
while we are at home and ask questions that we might forget to ask at school
• It's convenient
• Creates a forum where you can talk to other students about work
• It is something that I go on very often, so it reminds me that I have work instead of just forgetting
about it
• Easier to keep in touch with the rest of the class, easier to inform the entire class at the same time
of something important they need to know
• That it's accessible from most places. I go on regularly so it's not out of the way. It's a simple and
easy way to communicate and share work.
6. What do you dislike about the use of Facebook
in PE? [sample of student responses]
• Sometimes I don't go on Facebook
• I sometimes don't have the internet available at home
• If Internet is down or you're away from the computer work is impossible
• Facebook used to be for an escape from work. It feels odd having homework
and Facebook connected
• Easily distracted by chat pop ups etc
• We have less excuses for not doing the homework!!

effectiveness of your homework completion in PE?
28%
56%
15%
I dont do homework
I do less homework now
I do more homework now
I complete all homework set for every PE class
10. What improvements would you suggest to how we
use social media in PE? [sample of student
responses]
• Encourage people to only comment things that are relevant to the discussion
• If homework is due, use the messaging system to remind us
• Integrate a group chat session for a homework task
• Make sure that everyone can access Facebook at school
• Reminders before each class so we know what we need to bring - practical gear / theory booklets
etc
• Add due dates to videos
• I would like it if it was more private with less people reading my comments, I feel self conscious
having my comments visible by everyone in the group
11. What improvements would you suggest to how we
use social media school wide? [sample of student
responses]
• More Facebook groups to share homework tasks with in other subject
areas
• Not use social media because Facebook puts you in a headspace that is
not conducive to completing homework
• Maybe more classes could use the sort of flipped learning technique
because it allows you to watch things over and over
• Create a social media group for every single course, not just PE.This
would really help improve homework completion
12. How do you see social media affecting your
education in the future? [sample of student
responses]
• I think it adds a level of convenience and will greatly affect my future because ill be
more likely to complete homework
• Technology is only bound to grow bigger, so it is going to have a huge affect on my
education, particularly if I go to university
• Social media will become a big part of my education. Hopefully it will enhance my
learning and make it easier
• I see social media being integrated more and more into our education system and I
think that's a very good idea
• The benefit of accessibility anywhere is a big plus!
13. Moving forward
• Release class guidelines on social
media etiquette to address some of the
identified concerns
• Brainstorm other ways to incorporate FB
in the classroom (plan evening group
chats, guests on FB chat, utilise full
group messaging, maybe FB events?
• Revisit class expectations and look at
student options for when Internet
access in unavailable
14. Moving forward
• Work with other teachers interested in
incorporating social media into their learning area
• Invite other teachers into our class Facebook
groups to observe how we use it
• Provide training sessions around different ways to
use social media in the classroom
• Keep promoting student access to Facebook, but
also consider consequences for those misusing it
or getting distracted by it in class
