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.

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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Virtual Tour of The Unquiet Library Fall 2012
1. What is The
Unquiet
Library?
A Virtual Tour for Faculty,
Students, and Parents of
Creekview High, Fall 2012
Buffy Hamilton, School Librarian
Jan Reed, School Librarian
2. Welcome to The Unquiet Library!
Visitors can sign in at the entrance to
the library or enjoy one of our jigsaw
puzzles at the puzzle table. The
entrance also opens up immediately
to lounge seating and 30+ desktop
computers.
3. As you enter the library, the right side is home to
a space that we use for class visits where students
can work in small groups at tables and/or the
lounge furniture. This space is also used for
morning and lunch visitors who drop in and need a
space to relax, work, or read. We also house our
new book arrivals and featured book theme of the
month in this area on the silver and octagon
shaped book displays. Periodicals are also housed
in this area.
4. While you’re in the
lounge/read/study/group work area,
enjoy one of our many periodicals! We
offer academic as well as fun, “guilty
pleasure” reads for everyone! Back
issues of periodicals may be checked
out for a week.
5. Our fiction section is located on the same
side of the library as our
lounge/read/study/group work area. We
host a diverse and robust collection of
classics, popular YA lit, and award winning
books. We continue to welcome teacher
and student suggestions as we grow our
fiction collection. Students may check out
up to three books, and while the standard
loan period is two weeks, we’re happy to
customize that loan period to meet the
needs for an assignment or reader.
6. Whether you have a question, need to
check out a book, or just want to chat
with our friendly library staff, the
circulation desk is our version of Apple’s
“Genius Bar”---come on over, and
whoever is available will be glad to help
you. Our library HP 2430 black and
white printer is also housed at the circ
desk—pick up your print jobs here.
7. Our instructional area offers plenty of
space for mini-lessons, student
presentations, and special events like
guest speakers and musical performances.
We also use this area for students to work
alone or in small groups. This space is our
primary zone of direct instruction to
classes.
8. Our instructional area is also home to our
nonfiction and reference collection.
Nonfiction and reference are intershelved
by Dewey number. Please ask for help if
you need assistance locating a book in this
area!
9. As you leave the instructional area, you’ll
see our crafts area. This is an area where
students can work on art or other similar
projects. We provide markers, crayons,
construction paper, glue, scissors, and
other materials for hands-on crafts.
10. We also offer multiple cozy seating
areas like this one for reading,
schoolwork, and relaxing throughout
the library. We invite you to take time
out of your busy day to relax a few
minutes and enjoy a good book,
magazine, or moments of calm during
your day.
11. Our computer or “Learning Lab” is
another space for instruction and
student work. Whether it’s research,
creating content, or utilizing productivity
applications and software, the learning
lab is a another hub of thinking and
creativity in The Unquiet Library! The lab
entrance is located across from the
circulation desk and behind the
instructional area of the library.
12. Our storage room houses audiovisual
equipment, videos, audiobooks, and the
professional collection for faculty. You can
browse the items available in here via our
Destiny OPAC or ask a staff member for
assistance if you’d like to browse the
materials in person.
13. We will take care of your lamination needs;
please bring your items paper clipped and put
a sticky note with your name on it.
Lamination is done once a day; please drop of
lamination requests in the morning. We offer
a variety of die cuts for you to use; please ask
