Beyond Big Binders: Teaching Portfolios in the Web 2.0 WorldMonica Rysavy
With today's technology, it's no longer necessary to maintain the traditional (and oversized!) 3-ring binder for your teaching portfolio. In this presentation (which was presented at PETE&C 2013 by Monica Rysavy and Kim Tohill), we explored various e-portfolio development tools and demonstrated how to create an e-portfolio that showcases evidence of your teaching skills and professional qualifications
In this interactive session, Michael Paskevicius guides participants getting started with WordPress. This session is designed to get participants started on designing and creating ePortfolios.
ePortfolios empower students to emphasize individual strengths, therefore, allowing them to become key players in their own learning. Join the presenter as she discusses the development and implementation of ePortfolios.
This handout was used for my Southern Regional Education Board Summer Session presentation. I presented methods of integrating literacy strategies and technology to engage students.

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 Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

readyyyyy to

I have a Weebly ePortfolio /
website… Now What?
Well, here comes the fun part now!!!!
Here are some things that you can do
with your new site
47. Collaborative projects
Collaboration teams post
• a detailed outline of their project
• a log of the conversation and decision-making that
went into constructing and executing the project
• a final presentation.
Each team should design its own assessment rubric
by editing a webpage to show all the features of an
excellent project.
48. Lexicon teams
* Each week, a team of students will edit a
page to collaboratively identify and define
key words and phrases from that week’s
readings and class discussion.
49. E-book teams
*Each week, a team of four students
works between meetings of class sessions
to update an enhanced e-book that
includes the notes, lexicon entries, and
mindmaps for that week, with graphics,
text, and live links.
* In addition, e-book teams develop a
webpage on best practices and
procedures.
50. Blog Reflections
*Students can be required to post a short (a few sentences
or a short paragraph) synopsis of each reading in the
student’s blog. Students can be requested to create
• a short dialog between the authors of each week’s texts
• list ways in which the subject of the texts could affect
the student’s life or society
• reflect on the implications of the texts for life online in
the future
• answer their own key questions from their own
perspective
51. Real-time note-taking
and backchannel

note-taking handing off to another team
every half hour, publishing their notes to
the class site after the end of the class
