The document discusses the potential educational benefits of using iPads in teaching and learning. It outlines how iPads could support the educational process by providing resources, engaging students in tasks and activities, and enabling new forms of assessment. While iPads offer possibilities, more research is still needed to demonstrate clear educational benefits. The document also lists specific apps that could be used for classroom interactions, assignments, reading materials, note-taking, collaboration and assessing students.
This is the PowerPoint from a presentation that I gave to the Faculty of Medicine at The University of Hong Kong. It is very similar to the presentation that I gave to the Faculty of Dentistry with the exception that there are examples of application used in medicine.
In this presentation we will take a look at trends in the world of e-Learning.
There are many more to talk about and maybe that are very relevant for you.
But we hope this will give you some ideas and will inspire you for your own learning solutions

The Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy and Development (OLPD) will be a campus-wide leader in the use of technology to enhance students’ educational experiences, academic praxis, and intellectual pursuits.
To achieve this vision, we aim to co-develop a culture within OLPD that anticipates and embraces technological change and encourages the use of existing and emerging technologies to support innovation and constructive collaboration among students, faculty and staff.
Teach Talk: Devices are taking over the classroom - so what next?FrogEducation
The revolution has arrived. Mobile devices are in our classrooms, but after technical issues have been resolved, how do you actually use devices as a teaching resource? Hear how schools are using devices in the classroom to improve learning and increase student engagement.
In this presentation I look at the underlying pedagogy for a professional learning course to teach eLearning Officers at The University of Hong Kong the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills to become instructional designers. The course design is critically discussed with respect to motivational issues.

This is my keynote presentation for the 2013 iMoot. The presentation covers the role of Moodle - and by extension other Learning Management Systems - in a world of open teaching and learning.
Everything You Need To Know About MOOCs (Well Almost)Iain Doherty
HKU is currently looking at the MOOC space and this presentation provided colleagues at the University with an overview of what's happening with MOOCs.
My eLearning team delivered an afternoon workshop on creating engaging eLearning experiences. This PowerPoint provided a theoretical lens for the workshop. We built on this theory to deliver three more parts to the workshop: the Learning Management System, Cloud Services and Tablet Devices.
This is a presentation that I gave to the Hong Kong Vocational Training Council Learning and Teaching Steering Committee. I was asked to present on the Learning Management System, Education 3.0 and future directions in eLearning. I tied it all together by presenting Education 3.0 as the driver to change the past (LMS) into the future (open, mobile learning supported by learning analytics).
The Learning Management System: Adapt or DisappearIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave at the Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning. I argued that we need to re-think pedagogy and technology use and suggested that we need to conceive of the LMS as one system within a student's personal learning environment.
Hong Kong Knowledge Management SocietyIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave to the Hong Kong Knowledge Management Society. It is a high level look at the learning management system in higher education and the presentation makes the case for needing to focus on teaching and learning if eLearning is to be successful.
Leveraging Moodle for Engaging LearningIain Doherty
This is my keynote presentation for the inaugural Moodle Moot in Hong Kong. I argue that we need to re-think the role of the teacher and to put in place a teaching model that centres on the connect learning developing a personal network. I then argue that Moodle can support this approach to teaching.
This is a relatively straightforward presentation that I put together for a certificate course in instructional design. The presentation takes students through the five steps of the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) and references the steps to a learning site that I developed at The University of Auckland (https://www.fmhshub.auckland.ac.nz/).
Writing for Publishing in Technology Enhanced Learning ResearchIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave for the Write-TEL 2 (http://www.napiereducationexchange.com/pg/groups/12872/writetel-2/) writing workshop series. I provided a perspective on writing to get published in the area of technology enhanced learning. The basic thrust of the presentation is that good research naturally leads to a good research paper.

Evaluating the Impact of an eLearning Strategy on the Quality of Teaching and...Iain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave at the CITE 2012 Research Symposium at The University of Hong Kong. Essentially the presentation makes a case for the need to look at learning experiences and learning outcomes in order to truly determine whether or not an eLearning strategy has been effective. In other words, Moodle generated data will not do the trick.
E-Learning in a Changing Landscape of Emerging Technologies and PedagogiesIain Doherty
This is the presentation that I gave at the Opening Plenary Panel of the 2012 CITE Research Symposium at The University of Hong Kong. I guess that my aim was to start people off thinking a little bit about how higher education has made use of technologies for teaching and learning. I also wanted to send a positive message about what might be done.
Effective Online Communication and PresentationIain Doherty
This is a presentation that I gave to student teachers at Ningbo Polytechnic on effective online presentation and communication skills. I decided to broaden the presentation out a bit to talk about effective teaching online.
This is a presentation that I gave to education students at Ningbo Polytechnic. The pedagogical perspective relates to the three core Moodle functional areas - delivering content, collaboration & communication, and delivering assessments.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
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.

The iPad in Dentisry
1. The iPad for Teaching and Learning
Dr. Iain Doherty
Associate Professor
Director eLearning Pedagogical Support Unit
Centre for the Enhancement of Teaching and
Learning
3rd February 2012
4. The Educational Process
• Intended learning outcomes and graduate attributes
• Resources to enable students to engage in learning
• Tasks and activities to help students to learn
• Supports both built in and human
• Assessment to determine whether learning has
occurred
5. Technology & Teaching
• Using technologies purposefully in teaching and
learning means being learning led and technology
enabled
• The question to ask has to do with how technologies
can support students in achieving the intended
learning outcomes for any particular program / course
• In other words, what place does the iPad have in
providing resources, engaging students in tasks /
activities, providing supports and carrying out
assessments
6. Doing Things Better
• Educational benefit can be conceived of in terms of
improving student learning
• Educational benefit can also be conceived of in terms
of enabling students to do things in the learning
environment that would not otherwise be possible
• These are not mutually exclusive.

Ready or Not? TechTrends, 55(6), 42-48. doi:10.1007/s11528-011-0540-6
7. Just Another Laptop?
• The form factor means that the iPad is more akin to a
mobile phone that is carried everywhere i.e. integrated
into a life / extension of self
• The iPad runs on code written specifically for the device
which means fast boot up + processing speed + the
battery life is good (about 10 hours)
• Interaction with the device is tactile and engaging giving
a distinct User Interface experience
• There are 200,000 + applications written specifically for
the iPad
http://www.ipadineducation.co.uk/iPad_in_Education/iPad_v_Netbook.html
8. Agile Space
• “I am using the term ‘agile’ here to signal a new
technology space in between handheld and portable.
Devices which fit this space are particularly useful for
teaching and learning purposes, as they offer the
flexibility needed for modern learning practices. It has
taken the iPad to really cement this space although
there will be countless others arriving in the market
fairly soon. Whether or not they will offer the right
blend of features successfully of course remains to
be seen”.
http://www.ipadineducation.co.uk/iPad_in_Education/The_Agile_Space.html
9. Let’s Be Clear
• There is a lot of hype and a lot of subjectivity in
claims made about the value of the iPad in education
• Only a limited number of the 200, 000 + applications
are specifically educational
• Whether there is actual educational benefit still has
to be shown through scholarly research
10. Doing Things Better
• “Our study suggests that there is a paucity of
applications that truly extend capability, much of what
these application allow can be done with other
devices, and this leads us to conclude that the
current trajectory will not revolutionize teaching and
learning. The lack of collaboration capabilities
underlie this point, as do the overwhelming number of
application that are simply drill and practice or
focused on delivering content for consumption.

Ready or Not? TechTrends, 55(6), 42-48. doi:10.1007/s11528-011-0540-6
11. Might Still Make It
• “Contemporary ‘digital age’ university students in
developed countries are familiar with social
networking through Facebook, instant communication
via Twitter and mobile technology through their
smartphones. They compare these with university e-
mail and e-learning systems, projected lecture slides
and handwritten assessment tasks. They have
expressed a desire for more varied forms of
communication and more vibrant learning methods”

New Technology into Tertiary Education: The Role of the iPad. Asian Social Science,
7(11), 61-65. doi:10.5539/ass.v7n11p61
12. Might Still Make It
• The iPad may also become central in education in
order to graduate students familiar with devices that
will be used in the workplace e.g. agile devices for
maintaining patient records, accessing information
instantly, presenting to patients
