This presentation is a part of ICPSR's monthly Webinar series. It describes inquiry-based learning and how using data in the college classroom can help foster deeper learning. TeachingWithData.org, a repository of social science materials, was introduced.
This was presented at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Sotland, on 29th November 2007. The main focus is Inquiry Based Learning (IBL) but at the end I introduce Second Life and talk about my work with students in SL. Firstly I talked about what IBL is and then moved on to describe the work of the Centre for Inquiry Based Learning in the Arts and Social Sciences (CILASS) which is based at Sheffield University. I mentioned the level 1 module "Inquiry in Infrmation Management" (new last year), where I am part of the teaching team, and in particular I talked about the activity in Second Life with my first year "Information Literacy" class.

Learning Analytics and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning - an obvious ...Blackboard APAC
The scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) essentially advocates for a research approach to be applied to the improvement of learning and teaching. It encourages teachers to reflect in a scholarly way on their teaching practice and at the more advanced level to undertake research on teaching practice and curriculum. Learning analytics has the potential to provide data on elements of the teaching process which have to date been difficult to measure particularly for the broader cohort of teachers.
This presentation will draw attention to the connection between SoTL and learning analytics and prompt participants to think about how learning analytics can be used in a wider context to contribute to changes in teaching design and practice.

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.

Spice up your lecture with Inquiry-based Learning
1. Spice Up Your Lecture With Inquiry-based Learning Lynette Hoelter, PhD Dir., Instructional Resources February 23, 2011
2. Presentation Outline: Defining inquiry-based learning Problem-based learning Benefits to use Introducing TeachingWithData.org Resources within TwDthat fit the student-driven approach to learning Other pedagogical approaches: Pedagogy in Action server
3. What is Inquiry-based Learning? Part of the “Problem-based Learning” (PBL) set of pedagogies1 Case-based learning Project-based learning Inquiry-based learning Notion that education begins and is fostered through student curiosity First documented uses were in medical education in the 1970s Expanded into professional education and then undergraduate curricula 1Savery, John R. 2006. Overview of Problem-based Learning. The Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, v1(1):9-20.
4. Benefits of PBL Assessment of traditional versus PBL strategies show: No significant differences in learning of “facts” Lends itself better to multidisciplinary approaches Within social sciences, this might also mean integration of “technical” and “substantive” information. Learners much more engaged with material More likely to see relevance to their lives and work More easily able to recall and apply knowledge to solving new problems (e.g., Doctors trained with PBL are better able to integrate information when making diagnoses)
5. Indicators of Effective Undergraduate Education Students should demonstrate high-level skills in Communication Computation Technological literacy and information gathering (to create new knowledge) Making informed judgments Accurately defining problems and seeking solutions
6. Otherwise Known as…. Critical Thinking: Students as participants in a democratic society Skills include: Questioning the source of evidence in a stated point Identifying gaps in information Evaluating whether an argument is based on data or opinion/inference/pure speculation Using data to draw logical conclusions
7. … or Quantitative Literacy: Necessary for informed citizenry Skills learned & used within a context Skills: Reading and interpreting tables or graphs and to calculating percentages and the like Working within a scientific model (variables, hypotheses, etc.) Understanding and critically evaluating numbers presented in everyday lives Evaluating arguments based on data Knowing what kinds of data might be useful in answering particular questions For a straightforward definition/skill list, see Samford University’s (not social science specific)
8. Students Realize Skills Are Marketable Often cited by students as something “tangible” that they have learned Definable skill set useful in many career paths Easy to tie to everyday life AND… Engages students more fully with course content
9. Focus on Inquiry-based Learning Many of the advantages of Problem-based Learning (PBL), but more instructor guidance/ “control” True PBL gives students a “messy,” real-world problem and they must work together to find the information with which to come up with a solution – the entire course is typically structured around the problem and resulting group learning Each team member is responsible for part of the information gathering and true learning takes place when members share information and teach each other Instructor provides information with which students investigate the question, build knowledge, discover connections, and reflect upon a new understanding of the issue IBL allows instructor ability to use a smaller exercise or set of exercises within other pedagogical styles (e.g., lectures) Sometimes easier for introductory-level courses
10. Introducing TeachingWithData.org Project Partners ICPSR and SSDAN, UM Science Education Resource Center, Carleton College Professional Associations (Economics, Geography, Political Science, and Sociology)
