Trends and approaches in medical education in the digital age Natalie Lafferty
The use of technology has become ubiquitous in medical education. Educational technologies have increased access to learning resources but there are also challenges and personal development needs for both staff and students to be considered. This presentation that I gave to the Galway Area Medical Education group at Galway Medical School on 7 March 2013 considers some of the emerging trends in using technology in medical education and approaches to their implementation with examples from across the continuum of medical education.

My presentation in Bett show 2016
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCSs) are playing an important role in university strategy discussions since they offer new learning opportunities and can change teaching practices. Despite the overall impact of these courses in the higher education system is still unknown, there is an emerging teaching practice that considers the use of MOOC content and activities as part of formal learning courses in face-to-face universities. These practices convey diverse types of hybrid methodological combinations. These emerging scenarios are worth exploring to understand the potential and challenges of the phenomena. To contribute to this understanding, in this talk I will present our research about the use of MOOC resources (basically videos) in blended learning practices in the higher education sector

Technology: what are we losing? Does it matter? Michael Coghlan
Such is the scale of change wrought by the current Digital Age that it is being compared with the profound changes that occurred as a result of the invention of printing in the 15th century, and the industrial revolution of the 18th century. Every new wave of technology produces changes. Some of these changes are immediately welcome, and their benefits obvious. Some changes are easy to see and predict. Other changes take time, are less immediately obvious, and are not always welcome. With each change, with each gain, there is some loss.
We are clearly in the middle of massive technology driven change. What then are we losing? Is this loss an inevitable consequence of change? Should we be trying to identify practices and values that ought not to change, or has that horse already bolted?

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

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.

Face to face?
Online?
Blended?
Evidence inconclusive. Check resources at

Bonk) and decide for yourself
13. What is synchronous/asynchronous
communication?
SYNCHRONOUS (real time) eg f2f
conversation, telephone calls, chat,
Instant Messaging
ASYNCHRONOUS – some delay
between initial communication and the
reply eg letters, email, forums, Facebook
newsfeed
17. ASYNCHRONOUS TOOLS
SOCIAL MEDIA/NETWORKING
Facebook (tip: use the Groups feature)
Google+
Foursquare etc (Geolocation)
Flickr (images)
YouTube (videos)
Slideshare (slides)

25. Your Experience?
Have you experienced the use of
synchronous tools in online courses that
you have either taught or studied?
26. Question
Why do you think it is important to
include synchronous tools in online
courses?
27. Social/Affective Benefits
Social, community, and personal
engagement
personal engagement/motivation (55%)
community building
(29%)
improving the social experience (27%)

28. Tension: Synch v Asynch
Terry Anderson, Toward a Theory of Online
Learning:
“….the major motivation for enrollment in distance education is not
physical access, but rather, temporal freedom to move through
a course of studies at a pace of the student’s choice.”
Participation in (synchronous events) “almost inevitably places
constraints on this independence.”
“ The demands of a learning-centered context might at times force
us to modify prescriptive participation in (synchronous events),
even though we might have evidence that such participation will
further advance knowledge creation and attention.”
29. Resolving the tension between
asynchronous and synchronous
approaches
don‟t make synch sessions compulsory; use synch for
those who want it
use tools that can record or archive the sessions for
later retrieval
don‟t use synchronous for whole class instruction
use for meetings, one-on-one, or in small groups
offer informal (social) sessions in synch mode
allow student use of synchronous space
offer office hours sessions at set times
30. What kinds of tasks/activities work best with
ASYNCHRONOUS?
SYNCHRONOUS?
31. Resolving the tension between
asynchronous and synchronous
approaches
It‟s not all or nothing – use both approaches:
Synch for social, spontaneous, decision making
(CONVERGENT THINKING)
Asynch for deliberation, reflection, considered opinion
(DIVERGENT THINKING)
32. Skills of the Live Online
Presenter
Golden Rule: 6-8 minutes talking at a stretch
maximum
Intersperse presentations with questions, polls, other
speakers (from the floor), whiteboard activity
Decide how to handle direct messaging – will you
monitor/respond? Or ignore it? Dip in and out of it?
Consider working with a producer/co-presenter
More at http:// michaelcoghlan.net/fll/blog.htm#skills
33. What kinds of synchronous activities?
TEACHING
„straight lecture‟
Guest lecturers
Oral presentations
Group work
One on one (eg
pronunciation)
OTHER
Office hours
Class to class
Social: student student
34. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Conferences, seminars
Workshops and Training sessions
Meetings (much more cost effective than
teleconferencing)
Weekly Webhead sessions

Teaching with Twitter (Steve Wheeler)
„Twit Board‟ Notify students of changes to course content, schedules, venues or other important
information. (could be done with phone)
„Summing Up‟ Ask students to read an article or chapter and then post their brief summary or précis
of the key point(s). A limit of 140 characters demands a lot of academic discipline. √
„Twit Links‟ Share a hyperlink – a directed task for students – each is required to regularly share one
new hyperlink to a useful site they have
„Micro Write‟ Progressive collaborative writing on Twitter. Students agree to take it in turns to
contribute to an account or „story‟ over a period of time.
Use the backchannel to provide feedback on classes in real time √
46. 21st Century Skills
Decentralized decision-making, information sharing,
teamwork and innovation are key in today‟s
enterprises
Whether a technician or a professional person,
success lies in being able to communicate, share,
and use information to solve complex problems, in
being able to adapt and innovate in response to new
demands and changing circumstances, in being able
to marshal and expand the power of technology to
create new knowledge and expand human capacity
and productivity.
49. THE RECIPE FOR SUCCESS
ASYNCH
Email (one to one; one to many)
Discussion tool (many to many; forum – in
LMS eg Moodle; Facebook, etc; Voice –
