Through workshops and online spaces on OpenLearn and other sites, the team explored how digital tools could support the SLN's educational outreach and collaboration between partner institutions. While questions remained, OpenLearn proved a successful platform for this type of multi-institutional eLearning partnership.
Technology at tutorials
This document provides tips for using technology in tutorial settings. It discusses preparing equipment in advance, the variety of technologies that may be available, issues that could arise, and ways to avoid relying on unstable connections. Key advice includes booking equipment early, having backup content locally, and not assuming all functions will work as expected. The goal is to help lift the veil on using technology while also being cautious about reliability.

What Is The Web?
Used at Sussex Downs College 19/05/08
Title started as "What is the web?" but presentation morphed into "Where is the web going?"
Motivation - The Sussex Downs cut
This document discusses motivation and goal setting. It defines motivation and explains that goals should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound (SMART). Some key steps to achieving goals are breaking them down into smaller, more manageable objectives. An example is given of the development of Concorde over many years through the work of scientists like Newton and Bernoulli, culminating in its first flight in 1969. The importance of learning from failures and others' experiences is also discussed.
Evaluating Information
This document introduces the PROMPT test for evaluating information. The PROMPT test examines the Presentation, Relevance, Objectivity, Method, Provenance, and Timeliness of information. It discusses assessing each element, such as considering the balance of evidence for objectivity and who produced the information and why for provenance. The document recommends using the PROMPT test's criteria to help determine how useful or credible a piece of information may be.

Some key steps in achieving goals are breaking them down into smaller, more manageable objectives. An example is given of the development of Concorde over many years through the work of scientists like Newton and engineers achieving objectives along the way. The importance of learning from failures and others' work is also discussed.
Communication In The 21st C
This document discusses the history and evolution of communication. It explores how communication has changed from the Middle Ages to the present day, moving from oral communication to written texts to digital communication online. Examples are provided of communication methods from different historical periods, showing how communication technologies have advanced over time. The document also briefly discusses potential future directions of communication and how collaborative online solutions could help address global issues.
Flashbash Notes
This document provides a quick reference guide for using Flashmeeting, noting that it displays the time remaining in the meeting, the next speaker in queue, and the people currently in the meeting. It explains that the broadcast button mutes others while pressed, and that selecting different tabs does not change others' views. The chat tab will flash when new messages arrive, allowing text chat to discuss and raise points independently of audio/video for those without those capabilities.
Motivation
This document discusses how to set and achieve goals through planning objectives and iterating on steps. It emphasizes that goals are easier to achieve if you break them down into smaller, more clear objectives. An example is given of the development of Concorde, noting that while it achieved supersonic flight, its success was built on scientific discoveries and innovations over centuries.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
