Reflecting on 23 Things: using 23 Things in an Information literacy classSheila Webber
This is a presentation given by Sheila Webber (Information School, University of Sheffield) on 13th December 2011 in the virtual world, Second Life. In SL she is Sheila Yoshikawa. Firstly, she describes what is meant by a "23 Things" initiative, and she identifies some characteristics and examples. Secondly, Sheila describes a "23 Things" initiative she has used in a Masters-level class that she coordinates.
DETAIL: Digital Storytelling with VoiceThreadcpstoolstech
This tutorial explains how to use VoiceThread digital storytelling technology to address many Common Core State Standards related to reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language.
In this keynote for Anglia Ruskin University's Digifest 2016 I introduced the idea that a convergence of emerging digital contexts is creating a tipping point in understanding the hybrid learning space. This changes the relationships we have with our students and signals at last that digital lifewide learning shifts the balance from a teaching or content-centred paradigm to learning paradigm.
The implications are staff and students need to learning the literacies of this connectivist learning environment.

Payer-Provider Summit Boston 2014 - Presentation "Payer-Provider Partnership Models for Health Care Innovation" with Tom Olenzak, Director, Independence Blue Cross
Presentation for a professional development workshop for teachers. The goal is to get the teachers excited about integrating technology into their curriculum and classroom operations.
"Technology in the Classroom is NOT the end goal, enabling learning EVERYWHERE is the goal" Andrew Barras
Who said that “the little ones” can’t collaborate, communicate, connect, create and use technology tools to support their learning and critical thinking skills? Be surprised when you read, see and hear elementary school students blog, backchannel, skype, podcast, design tutorials, become collaboration coordinators, information researchers and scribes to support their own learning.
This is a presentation with the intension of persuading the audience (school district) about the benefits of using the open source software Moodle to enhance classroom learning in an online environment.
Moodle is a software package for producing Internet-based courses and web sites.
Moodle is provided freely as Open Source software (under the GNU Public License).
It can be run on Windows and Mac operating systems and many flavors of Linux.
The word Moodle a verb that describes the process of lazily meandering through something, doing things as it occurs to you to do them, an enjoyable tinkering that often leads to insight and creativity.
Anyone who uses Moodle is a Moodler.

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.

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.
