This document provides ideas for physical activity breaks that teachers can lead in the classroom, at home, and during recess to help get students more active throughout the day. It discusses the importance of physical activity for children's health and development. A variety of short games, exercises, and routines are described that involve movement, dance, sports skills, and coordination activities. The document encourages teachers to promote physical activity outside of physical education class time to help address the lack of activity many children face.

New Perspectives on Engaging Students and Teachers In the Classroom and BeyondBlackboard
Challenged with meeting the expectations of their 21st century learners, teachers are constantly trying to find ways to make their instruction more engaging in order to ultimately increase student achievement. Districts are also striving to increase teacher efficiency through organizational and planning tools, including aligning content with state learning standards.
Join us for an interactive discussion with three Blackboard clients, blendedschools.net (PA), OCM BOCES (NY) and Volusia County Schools (FL), who have had early access to our latest release, Blackboard Learn(TM)Release 9.1. They will share best practices around how Blackboard has been critical in helping them achieve their educational objectives, as well as reflect on the new K-12 functionality that will further enrich their programs and help them meet their goals.

Seeing Through “Learner’s Eyes” – using student evaluation of teaching at UCD...CONUL Conference
Presented at the CONUL Conference, July 2015, Athlone, Ireland by Michelle Dalton, University College Dublin.
Abstract
"Student evaluation of teaching (SET) is one of Brookfield’s (2002) Four Lenses of Critical Reflection (2002). When combined with peer observation, relevant theoretical literature and self-reflection, it can provide a useful channel for gathering feedback on the value and effectiveness of teaching. This paper discusses the design and development of a feedback collection tool for information literacy sessions at UCD Library, whilst raising some of the key questions involved in the process including:
Why do we need student feedback and what can we learn from it?
Qualitative or quantitative data – which is more valuable?
What about student self-reporting and self-rating?
Satisfaction ratings as a proxy for evaluating the quality of teaching – what do they really tell us?
How can format - paper-based or online – influence the quantity and quality of responses?
Informed by this underlying theoretical context, the paper also discusses the use of the tool in practice. The feedback form has now been implemented by the UCD College Liaison Librarian team over a full academic year, yielding useful data and insight that have helped to inform future practice. The paper concludes by highlighting some of the emerging themes from this data, outlining how it might potentially be used to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning in information literacy.

"Traveling Light: Gathering Information and Cataloging Photographs with Mobile Devices"
Endorsed by the Education Committee
As educational and cultural institutions continue to develop online image collections to support the teaching of visual culture in the expanded classroom, new technologies allow movement beyond the still image to investigate and disseminate visual information from different vantage points: social, economic, political, visual. The power of digital technologies as a means to synthesize, present, and communicate large amounts of information challenges the instructor and researcher to incorporate different ways to interrogate works of art, archaeology, and architecture or develop new visual support tools. This session seeks to explore components and examples of successful collisions between past models and present possibilities for teaching and research.
These slides summarise how we take a PFR approach when teaching our 4th year KM module at Edinburgh Napier University. The students are encouraged to use PFR in their learning, but we also use it as an approach to improving the course content over time. The slides include examples of PFR-like cycles from different subject areas, and a link to youtube video of a peer-reviewed rap on the subject.
Student feedback is a hot topic in higher education, with students demanding more of it, quicker. This session discusses a project that attempted to define the concept of feedback from both a student and faculty perspective and then develop workflows and possible extensions to Blackboard to improve the creation, delivery and learning from feedback.

Effective Ways to Make Science Fun for Your KidsAdvanced Academy
Each & every kid is a scientist in making new things! They are praying about the world around them. Toddlers like to touch, trap, drop, or indeed consume anything that they set their eyes on. Similar exploratory and occasionally devastating education lets them endure more about the world around them. And this is more or less how science enquires into the secrets of nature.

Story Starts to Science Presentation Handout NSTA Conference 2015 by Jennife...Jennifer Williams
Too often science takes a back seat to language arts and/or reading in the elementary curriculum. To alleviate this problem and to make teaching more enjoyable for both the teacher and the children, science and reading can be integrated through the use of children’s literature books and associated science activities. Children will begin to see that science is not an isolated subject but can be found all around us. Promote your students’ enthusiasm and understanding of scientific concepts by integrating children’s literature into hands-on, inquiry based experiments and activities. This workshop will demonstrate the seamless blend of “story time” and science. Participants will leave with a bibliography of suggested titles and will be able to participate in many activities.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
