LOSS & PERSEVERANCE
Commemorate a time when something was taken from us yet we continued on. Natural disasters such as tornadoes, fires, hurricanes, and earthquakes.

Civil rights, women’s suffrage, entrepreneurial, technological, political, medical, community, philosophy, academic, etc.
BATTLE
A moment in time honored upon the location itself.

Lessons learnt from nearly 200 cases of knowledge management journeys by hong...2016
The talk summarises the lessons learnt from nearly 200 cases of Knowledge Management journeys by Hong Kong and Asian enterprises. Much of the data is gained through the extensive number of student, consultancy and research projects carried out or supervised by KMIRC staff at private companies, non-profit social services organizations and government departments. The projects include KM readiness assessments, knowledge audit, strategy formulation, taxonomy design and maintenance, cultural assessment and organizational change, knowledge retention from near-retirees, requirements elicitation and selection of collaboration tools including portals, search engine assessments, configuration and continuous improvements, IC reporting and many more. The speaker will outline the challenges and their respective solutions, the theory-practice gap, as well as some easy “entry points” into KM.
This talk is an extended version of an award-winning presentation delivered at the recently held European Conference on Knowledge Management, Udine, Italy.

Workshop on Knowledge-based Service Innovation2016
The world’s economy is increasingly service-based. More than 75% of GDP in the developed markets including Hong Kong are produced by services. Service innovation in both services and manufacturing sectors is shaping up as a significant transformational force in these developed economies. Accordingly, firms in developed markets are becoming service centered, and focused on enhancing the customer experience. Service centered firms often co-create value with their customers through the dynamic configuration of their people (knowledge), processes and technologies which, collectively, are known as organizational capabilities.
Hong Kong MAKE Award 2015 is open for application now! 2016
The MAKE Award is a prestigious global award, and it was launched in Hong Kong by the Knowledge Management and Innovation Research Centre (KMIRC) of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2008. The purpose of this award is not just to acknowledge the commitment of companies and organisations in Knowledge Management (KM), but also to bring the public recognition to those organisations that have achieved outstanding performance in KM activities.
Seminar on winning recipes from best knowledge enterprises2016
The Global Most Admired Knowledge Enterprise (MAKE) Award is an international benchmark of best practice knowledge management. This prestigious international award was launched in 1998 and sought to recognize organizations which out-perform their peers in creating stakeholders values by practising knowledge management and intellectual capital management. The launch of the MAKE Award provides a platform for enterprises to benchmark their KM performance with organizations locally, regionally and globally. It also encourages local organizations to start their KM journey. Through participation, an organization needs to analyze its strengths and weaknesses against the eight assessment criteria and strives to make improvement. As a result, its productivity, competitiveness and sustainability can be enhanced.
The success stories of these awardees are invaluable for enterprises which aim to embark on a corporate KM journey, or continue to flourish from existing KM implementation.

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.
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

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
