- The document discusses a project where students at Manhattanville College created educational games in Scratch to teach various information literacy topics, as an alternative to traditional annotated bibliography assignments.
- 17 students learned how to use Scratch and were divided into 5 groups, with each group creating a game focused on a different information literacy topic drawn from the ACRL standards.
- The games demonstrated student understanding of linking subjects to library classifications and locations, but also showed that designing full games was more difficult than anticipated and that information literacy concepts are not intuitive for new students.
Presentation for a workshop, geared toward elementary grades, focusing on web-based resources, games, and activities for most interactive whiteboards. The focus is on student-centered instruction.
Progress Monitoring in 10 Mintues or Less!MsLauraB
The EL department at Anne Sullivan Communication Center has been developing a formative assessment tool in order to have a common language across grade (K-8) and WIDA (1-5) levels to discuss student growth. By combining CMB tools, visual supports, WIDA rubrics, and elementary F&P-style comprehension questions, we have created a quick progress monitoring tool to assess a student's reading comprehension, fluency, writing, and speaking level along with goal trackers to empower students with their own data. Come to receive tools and resources, view demonstrations on how to administer the tests, and provide feedback to make the tools even better.

Better Research Papers: Workshop Your Handout - Faculty WorkshopMargot
Tuesday, August 26th, 2014, led by Margot Hanson and Michele Van Hoeck
BETTER RESEARCH PAPERS: WORKSHOP YOUR HANDOUT
2:00-3:30 PM, LIBRARY GREEN ROOM
Would you like to see higher quality research papers from students? Are you discouraged by grading papers with weak sources or insufficient citation? Drawing on recommendations from studies of student research habits, as well as librarian experience working with Cal Maritime students, attendees will work with a partner to revise one of their own research assignment handouts (prompts).
NOTE: Please bring a paper copy of one of your research paper assignments to the workshop.
Educators have access to a variety of resources for teaching ELLs in their school library. However, we often lack time to learn how to utilize many of the tools at our disposal.
Middle School Resources for Teaching ELLs is designed to introduce readily available print and electronic resources to help ELLs meet WIDA can do objectives in their learning while also ensuring teachers are incorporating WIDA look fors in their teaching. The goal of this session is for teachers to walk away with at least three resources they can put to use within the first days of school

Learning Through Play, The Old School WayLucinda Rush
Poster presentation at the Virginia Library Association Conference on October 23, 2014. This poster introduces new ideas for instructional design using game structures that students are already familiar with to teach information literacy concepts. It is well documented that millennials enjoy learning through collaboration with peers and self-exploration in a fast-paced, technology rich environment, and game-based instruction can be a great way to engage them in the classroom. While millennials are comfortable with technology and enjoy learning through video and web-based games, it is difficult for libraries with limited resources to compete with the expectations that students have based on their lifelong experiences with high-tech video games. Examples of non-technology based games that have been effective with undergraduates are provided. Specifically, a case study that the presenter conducted, of creating an innovative Candy Land based game to teach information ethics will is described. Student responses and assessment of student learning is shared.

Teaching to teach: A regional collaboration for library instruction trainingSarah Young
This session will describe a successful program that aims to fill the gap in pedagogical training that exists between library education and professional expectations. A model for a formal, grassroots instruction training program built upon a regional collaboration will be presented. Through facilitated discussion, participants will identify their own needs for library instruction training and the local strengths and talent that can contribute to a successful collaboration. They will leave this session with the confidence to initiate similar efforts at a scale that makes sense for their professional community.

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.

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.

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.
