Den moderne Office platform [Campus Days 2013]Salesforce
Den moderne Office-platform er bygget for den tid vi lever og arbejder i. Dagens brugere forventer adgang til information og indhold via smartphones og tablets i tillæg til klassiske PC'er. Brugerne er vandt til at dele og engagere sig via sociale medier. Samtidig repræsenterer Cloud Computing en mulighed for at spare store omkostninger til drift og vedligeholdelse af en produktivitetsplatform. Denne session giver et overblik over den sammenhængende værdi og integration mellem Office klienterne, Office Web Apps, mobile apps og ikke mindst hvordan det hele bindes sammen af SharePoint 2013 og Office 365.
كلما زادت المدنية الحديثة زاد الإسراف والنهم في الشراب والطعام من بني الإنسان؛ فكثرت الأمراض الجسمانية ومعها الأمراض العصبية والتوترات النفسية؛ فاخترع المعاصرون أنواعاً جمَّة من الريجيم منها الطبي ومنها الرياضي، ومنها عن طريق الأعشاب، ومنها باستخدامات الماء، ومنها كذلك قاعات الجيم الحديثة والساونا باختلاف أنواعها وألعابها، لأن معظم أمراض العصر في نظر المستحدثين سببها الأول هو السمنة والإسراف في تناول الأطعمة ذات السعرات الحرارية التى لا يلزم الجسم منها إلا شيء قليل.
وقد أدرك الإسلام بما فيه من توجيه قرآني وطب نبوي وحياة مثالية طيبة عاشها النبي r وأصحاب النبي الطريقة المثلى للحفاظ على قوة الأجسام في أعلى درجاتها، وعلى نضج الذاكرة واستمرارية ذلك حتى آخر نفس في حياتها، والتوازن النفسي والإنضباط السلوكي مع رشاقة الجسم وجمال قوامه؛ فوضع للمسلم نظاماً فريداً في تحضير طعامه وتجهيزه .. وكيفية تناوله .. ونظام الوجبات الذي ينبغي أن يلتزم به .. ثم الرياضة الدائمة التى لا غنى له عنها في نمو عضلاته والإحتفاظ بقدراته ... وقد بينا ذلك كله في هذا الكتيب النافع لكل مسلم حتى يسير على هدي دينه المثالي فيصيب سعادة الدنيا ويكسب الفوز والفلاح في الدار الآخرة.
ولما رأينا شدة حاجة المسلمين لهذه التعاليم الإلهية وانزلاق أكثرهم إلى استبدالها بأنظمة مستوردة أجنبية تزيد الداء ولا تشفي من سقم استجبنا لإلحاح كثير من طلاب المعرفة وروادها وناشروها في هذا الزمان فقررنا إعادة طباعة هذا الكتاب للمرة الثانية بعد مراجعته وضبط آياته وتصحيح أحاديثه وتحديث معلوماته.
أسأل الله U أن ينفع به كل من قرأه في حياته وسلوكه وتوجهاته وأن يجعله في صحيفة حسناته مدخرا له بعد مماته، وصلى الله على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم.

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 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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Running Impatica (Continued….)
10. Pros & Cons
Pros
• Multimedia presentation can be viewed on all computer platforms and browsers.
• Students don’t need to be at a computer with PowerPoint installed to view presentation.
• Students can download the presentation but cannot edit it or reproduce the original file.
• Slide notes can be provided in HTML or regular text format for printing & download.
• VCR-type controls allow students to stop, start, pause and replay the presentation.
• Narration, animation, and embedded video play (unlike PowerPoint PDF version).
• Lengthy presentations and those containing complex graphics are compressed making
the presentation accessible for students using a slower Internet connection.
• Students see the presentation in identical format whether they use a MAC or PC
• Compression runs fast (usually less than 5 min)
• Automatically creates ZIP file for upload to blackboard
11. Pros & Cons
Cons
• Requires more detailed work to upload
• Removing presentation from the server and replacing it with
an updated version requires additional time.
• Users cannot print the “Impaticised” presentation unless the
Web designer has given them a printable copy of the notes or
handouts.
• The quality of the majority of images does not seem to be
affected by the process, but there has been the odd exception
where photographs have appeared slightly pixelated when
used as a background image for a slide.
• A few animations are adversely affected.
12. Best Practices
THE DO’s >>>>>>>>
• DO use a high contrast between text and
background
• DO use a standard font that will be
recognized by most computers, e.g. Arial,
Verdana, Times New Roman
• DO reduce the size on screen of the
presentation if uploading to a web site by
setting the page size to 19cm x 14cm so
that students do not have to scroll down to
see the lower part of the slide,.
• DO break up a presentation with a large
number of slides into smaller chunks of
learning, particularly if it is narrated
13. Best Practices
THE DON’Ts>>>>>>>
• DO NOT use the spacebar or tab key to move text,
particularly for the second line of bulleted text
• DO NOT place text boxes too close to edges of the
PowerPoint as text may be cut short (truncated)
• DO NOT use high contrast gradient fill if
Impaticising because when Impatica compresses
the presentation, it removes as much data as
possible in an attempt to save file size making the
gradient-fill and color-change very noticeable.
• DO NOT use large images and re-size them but
save at a a size related to the average screen
resolution of 1024 X 768 pixels. (if the image is to
take up one third of the screen then it should be
saved at a width of approx. 300 pixels).
• DO NOT copy and paste images into PowerPoint,
but always save them (even if only temporarily as
a clipboard image) and insert them as a picture.
You can delete the image file later if necessary.
14. • A powerful tool for eLearning instructors and a great application
and solution for web presentations.
• Students can create reports, class projects and digital portfolios.
• Can facilitate on-line classes, presentations, assignments and
lesson plans.
• Can be used by staff and administrators for in-service training,
budget reports and internal or external communications.
• Functional versions of software available for no-obligation
evaluation. (Evaluation versions carry an “evaluation banner.”)
• Also available as a single user license.
• User guides, manuals, online tutorials and searchable
knowledgebase conveniently available on the web at
