The document describes Teaching and Learning Conversations (TLC), a staff development program at the University of Salford consisting of informal 1-hour blended sessions on various teaching and learning topics. The TLC series from February to June 2011 included webinars and on-campus seminars. Feedback was positive, praising the sharing of ideas and technology demonstration, though some technical issues occurred. The TLC aims to improve engagement in professional development and be more accessible through flexible delivery. Ongoing work includes addressing technical challenges, expanding the program, and collaborating with other institutions.
Open MOOCS with the Open Education ConsortiumUna Daly
Join the Open Education Consortium for this free, open webinar on the use of Open MOOCs to support global learning and certificates.
DATE: Tuesday, March 10, 2015
TIME: 10:00 am PST, 1:00 pm EST
The MOOC frenzy of a couple years ago has slowed down but the idea of sharing knowledge globally paired with the ability to earn inexpensive completion certificates still resonates. The Open Education community has clarified the definition of “open” in Massive Open Online Course to mean courses featuring open educational resources (OER) that can be re-used freely by learners and educators alike. In this webinar, you will get to hear about OER-based MOOC courses developed by Open Education Consortium members: Tufts University and Scottsdale Community College.
Tufts University offered the first in a 2-part MOOC series: The Biology of Water and Health last fall on the edX platform. The course examines critical water-related issues through a global and interdisciplinary lens focusing on the importance of water, sanitation and hygiene to maternal and child nutrition and growth, and encourages participants to explore social, economic, and behavioral dimensions. Hear how Part 1 of the course was developed, opportunities for learner interactions, and the learner outcomes from the first offering of the course. Plans for Part 2 will also be shared and how it will differ based on the experiences of Part 1.
A Scottsdale Community College English instructor developed an open MOOC on the Canvas platform to help other faculty find and develop OER materials for Composition and Rhetoric to use in their teaching. Hear how the course helps faculty to understand open licenses and develop their own high-quality OER materials to lower costs for their students and expand access.

The Adoption of Technology-Enhanced Learning for Inclusive Education
“If we teach today’s students as we taught yesterday’s, we rob them of tomorrow.”
-John Dewey-
The use of technology-enhanced learning (TEL) tools can bring great potential to enhance both students’ and instructors’ experiential learning, but only if they are appropriately adopted (Baneres et. al., 2015). With the challenges of online teaching, it is crucial for instructors to customise their lessons to holistically cover the learning outcomes while ensuring a deeper level of engagement among diverse learners. In this workshop, participants will be exploring some significant stages of selecting appropriate TEL tools in their lessons.

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.

Too much of me talking and without people taking the mic there's a limit to the value of it being mainly messaging.” “ It was a pleasure, and I enjoyed it. ” “ I found delivering the TLC webinar very useful to get views from many people and to be able to record them to listen and read later.”
10. feedback from participants informative, and a great way to connect with others Teaching and Learning Conversations TLC series 1 Feb- June 11 ADU Good to share practice, nice to be consulted. It was interesting to see the technology in action, and to get some idea of its possibilities and limitations. I couldn’t hear it. Good to see the interaction with this medium.
In the Academic Dev Unit we deliver and support both accredited and non acredited courses, for example post grad cert in learning and teaching, and also a open workshop prog where we have a series of f2f workshops scheduled that open and attended by everyone at the uni . In brief, we recognise through the work we do that staff value and appreciate the opportinuies to discuss and communicate with each other about various aspects of learning and teaching, share ideas and talk through problems etc and our role was to support and facilitate these. Our pgcap is acredited by the HEA, and is a probationary requirement for new staff – not always avaialble for everyone when they want it One of the things we identifed with the open prog workshop these, are usually 3 hrs f2f, and some staff find it difficult to block out this dedicated ampunt of time, what we have also found is that theses workshops, although feedback from participants have found it valuable these oftne to deliver to low numbers and uusally to the same faces We decided to review these based on some of the activities we were already implementng in our pg cert programme We dedcied to look at the possibility of having a blended learning apporach to our staff development opportunity to give more flexibility and to exploit the technology where possible Before I go to describe the TLC series – take a few minutes to discuss any blended learning staff development opportunites….
Hold onto some of the things you discussed in your group and during the course of my talk, see if you can identify with any of these I describe the TLC series here at Salford.
Hold onto some of the things you discussed in your group and during the course of my talk, see if you can identify with any of these I describe the TLC series here at Salford. How the TLC developed Our PGCAP course makes use of technology enhanced learning, and it is designed so we embed its use within the programme and assessment, and also to ensure we model good practice in learning and teaching. We have already started to use sychrous technology to deliver our programme using Elluminate Invited our PVC(A) to give a talk about learning and teaching at the university. This gave partciapnts an opportunity to engage with a senior member of staff about a subject which was pertinent to the programme. it gave participants an opportunity to engage with the technology which was being used within the programme. The TLC idea was given more momentum when our PVC(A) decieded tp engage with and work with a wider group of staff across the university to help him develop our revised learning and teaching strategy. These sessions were well attended and generated more interest in this type of approach as well as the technology itself
Elluminate used for media-synchronicity Mix of face to face and evening webinars TLCs are a series of f2f and blended staff development opportunities, with an underlining ethos that it was lead by acdemic staff from acorss the uni, and not just staff from ADU. And that it was an opporutnity for staff together and talk and share ideas 1hr – we felt this was the right amount of time to focus on a topic and to still enable the necessary conversation and interaction. We also scheduled in lunchtime and evening sessions to give added flexibility
An example of one of these TLCs – this one lead by our VC Scheduled for the evening Initial time to help people log in, set up, check technical set up Chrissi briefed the VC on the technology and also the approach to conduct his talk within the online environment, eg. Use of polling, raising your hands to ask questions and enourage interaction
This is the first series of TLC we facilitated this year. There are 3 f2f and 3 webinar sessions – The themes are based on the staff expertise
Demonstrated to the university another apporach to staff development which staff activity engaged in Staff coming together from across disciplines Staff are willing to engage with this approach, share their experience and also want an opportunity to experiecne the technology
In total, 72 staff participated in all events (face-to-face sessions: 24/per session: 8; webinars: 48/per session: 16).
Break – so far does this relate to any of the discussions you had earlier in the group?
Building on its success, we have the following ideas – but the cavent to this is that the unit is currently going through a restructure and so some of these things may not be achievable
