Low-Cost, High-Gain Technologies for Teachingbrettssu
Slideset from seminar given to faculty of Middle East Technical University. Goals was to share some interesting examples of technologies for teaching and learning that were relatively simple and inexpensive.
This presentation begins with an overview of the pedagogical advantages of CALL materials, including the use of multimedia to appeal to different learning styles and create an enriched learning environment, the development of learner autonomy through CALL resources that offer learners easier access and greater control, and the provision of materials that are more authentic and relevant to the learner’s needs and interests. Concrete examples of CALL materials are provided to link the theoretical perspectives to practical applications.
Several freely available resources for practicing each of the four skills are examined, and participants are invited to evaluate the effectiveness of these resources by questioning the underlying assumptions implied in them. We also consider some of the strategies that can be used in designing CALL resources, such as the use of context-based prompts in texts to promote the acquisition of effective reading strategies, and the use of a writing program to support the learner through the steps in the process of writing.
Participants are introduced to the materials and activities provided on websites supporting EFL coursebooks and encouraged to consider the usefulness and pedagogical validity of these resources. Finally, we consider the debate over the advantages and disadvantages of using interactive whiteboards, and suggest ways of using them appropriately.
This is the powerpoint presentation given at a Workshop called "Using Social Software for Language Learning" at Eurocall 2007 in Coleraine, Northern Ireland. The presentation will soon be integrated with screenshots from the actual presentation.

Implementing Universal and Inclusive Design for Online Learning Accessibility3Play Media
Accessibility is a critical component of any online learning content. With legal requirements stronger than ever, colleges and universities must find tangible ways to improve their web accessibility. This webinar will discuss how the principles of universal and inclusive design can be applied to the online learning environment, with a particular focus on the accessibility of course content and materials.
Howard Kramer, an Access Specialist at University of Colorado at Boulder, and Sheryl Burgstahler, the Director of Accessible Technology Services at the University of Washington, will explain what universal design is, the importance of incorporating universal design principles into online courses, and strategies for doing so.
This webinar will cover:
What is universal and inclusive design?
Strategies for implementing universal design
Best practices for the presentation of information and resources
Incorporating inclusiveness into a syllabus
Creating accessible documents and media
Providing information through multiple mediums
Resources and tools for incorporating inclusive design into the online environment

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 simplified electron and muon model, Oscillating Spacetime: The Foundation...RitikBhardwaj56
Discover the Simplified Electron and Muon Model: A New Wave-Based Approach to Understanding Particles delves into a groundbreaking theory that presents electrons and muons as rotating soliton waves within oscillating spacetime. Geared towards students, researchers, and science buffs, this book breaks down complex ideas into simple explanations. It covers topics such as electron waves, temporal dynamics, and the implications of this model on particle physics. With clear illustrations and easy-to-follow explanations, readers will gain a new outlook on the universe's fundamental nature.

2. UDL is the practice of embedding flexible strategies into the curriculum during the planning process so that ALL students can access a variety of learning solutions.
5. Web 2.0 & New Possibilitiesfor Education Web 2.0 provides a expansive learning world “inwhich the Web is seen as a two-way medium, where people are both readers and writers. The main catalyst for this is social software, allowing communication and collaboration between two or more people”. (O’Reilly, 2005)
6. Digital Natives, Digitally Engaged “Our students today are all "native speakers" of the digital language of computers, video games and the Internet.” (Prensky, 2001) When we use Web 2.0 tools we are engaging our students in what is often their language of preference. http://www.flickr.com/photos/judybaxter/48011834/
7. Universal Design for Learning meets Web 2.0 Universal Design for Learning Multiple means of Engagement Multiple means of Representation Multiple means of Expression Web 2.0 User-centered Information sharing Collaboration Blanket term for any website that is more than absorbing content
8. Our Criteria Does it provide all three principles of UDL? Is it relatively easy to use? Is it free? What is the registration process? Appropriate Content? Is it better to have a student stumble across something that’s “inappropriate” which can be used as a learning opportunity OR deny access completely so the student does not experience the “inappropriate” content? We let you decide.
