6 slide makeovers. The originals are random slides from a real presentation given to students.
There are notes on most of the slides to help explain thoughts and processes.
The document discusses the progression from realism to abstraction in art. It explains that realism aims to represent things as they are in reality, while abstraction is non-representational. It advises creating a series of paintings that gradually transitions from realistic to abstract representations, with four intermediate steps between the first realistic painting and final abstract painting. The document also discusses compositional elements and techniques for creating an artwork that transitions from a realistic close-up of oranges to an abstract representation.
The document contains multiple sections on different topics including obesity rates, iPad sales over time, international student statistics at UNL, tablet and smartphone penetration rates in the US, principles of blog posting and presentation design, and Japanese sayings. It includes data, statistics, tips and principles on various subjects without much connection between the sections.
The document discusses different learning styles, including the visual learning style. It describes the VAK model which categorizes learners as visual, auditory, or kinesthetic based on how they receive and process information. Visual learners tend to observe things like pictures, demonstrations, and films in order to improve their knowledge. They understand written instructions better than oral ones and use highlighting, color coding, mind maps and other visual techniques to memorize information.

Facing the World's Challenges One Village at a Time: An International ApproachLori Roe
This document outlines an international education project between students from different countries. It provides an agenda for an introductory meeting that will have students introduce themselves and discuss benefits, challenges, and questions about international collaboration. The remainder of the document provides background information on frameworks and partnerships to support international education, as well as goals and timelines for an innovative online collaboration project between high school students from 5 countries to research and solve global issues.
This document summarizes Michele Mar's presentation on creating a more dialogical and collaborative classroom for diverse learners. Some of the key strategies discussed include using TED talks and simultaneous Socratic seminars to encourage discussion from multiple perspectives. Student presentations incorporated various media and allowed English learners to overcome shyness. Theories from Vygotsky, Cummins and Fecho emphasize the importance of collaborative dialogue and empowering student voices. Recommendations for project-based learning and philosophic discussion aim to transform the social studies classroom into a more equitable space.
Baring one's soul, online: can it be good for trainee teachers?Philip Saxon
Trainees on short-format language teaching courses often complain about being rushed when it comes to having their teaching practice observed and getting feedback on it.
In this talk, I describe research I did at Warwick University in 2014 - which strongly suggests that inviting students to reflect on their teaching online (and what is more, openly) can pay real dividends.
CALRG 2016 - Student reflections on cross-cultural group work: Social factors...Jenna Mittelmeier
Rising numbers of international students worldwide (OECD, 2014) means that the students are increasingly able to work with diverse peers, especially in activities that incorporate collaborative group work. However, research has demonstrated that cross-cultural group work can be challenging for students. For example, multiple studies have demonstrated that students prefer to work with those from their own cultural background (Strauss, U, & Young, 2011; Volet & Ang, 1998). Similarly, frustrations occur when there is a perceived difference in contribution level between diverse group members (Popov et al., 2012). However, little research has analysed student experiences in cross-cultural group work activities to consider interventions that might help create a more inclusive and comfortable atmosphere in order to encourage more successful cross-cultural collaboration.
To address this gap, we conducted in-depth qualitative interviews with 20 students from 17 countries at a Dutch university, where problem-based learning and collaborative work are essential components of the curriculum. To encourage discussion and aid in personal reflections of previous experiences, we used a case-based reflection exercise. Each participant was given a case study example of a collaborative group, including information about their global region of origin, quantity of contributions, and type of contributions (i.e. cognitive, social or organisational). Students were then asked to consider collaboration problems in the case study and reflect on their own group work experiences, as well as make suggestions for interventions that could be put forth by the teacher that could lead to more successful collaboration. At the CALRG conference, we will present the findings of our thematic analysis of the interview data, and highlight potential interventions for encouraging collaboration between diverse students.
This document discusses developing intercultural skills in student group work at university. It presents a case study analyzing how students from different cultures interacted in mixed-nationality group projects. The study found that intercultural interaction created both tensions from differences in communication and ways of thinking, but also opportunities for personal transformation as students learned to work together across cultures and changed their approaches. Productive learning environments for developing intercultural skills were found to be those with open-ended, authentic tasks and opportunities for prior experience working together.
This document provides information about an advisory program at Webb Bridge Middle School. It includes an introduction and rationale for advisory programs focusing on advocacy for students. It outlines language arts and social studies standards addressed in advisory and suggested routine procedures for introducing film clips. The document then provides a calendar and details for two-week units on topics like respect, kindness, and honesty that will be covered during advisory, including film clips, discussion questions, and suggested class activities.

Please respond to the following:
· Based on your reading this week, determine two (2) of the challenges facing intercultural teams, and suggest how to overcome each of those challenges.
Intercultural Team Experiencing a Culture Clash in the Workplace
Example of one of my classmates:
RE: Week 3 Discussion 1
Some of the challenges listed in this week's reading ranged from communication, team performance, adhesion, adaptation, and decision making. The two (2) that stuck out to me or seemed more challenging than the others would be communication and decision making.
Communication is tricky in any relationship so just imagine trying to communicate with someone with a different language, dialect, and culture than you. Some ways to overcome this challenge would be to hire translators, make sure that all employees had the proper training training on each culture so they knew how to address their co-workers, make sure that things weren't lost in translation, pair employees with someone that came from a different culture so they could learn from each other.
Decision making would have to be the most challenging for me. You have to be totally aware of the fact that on a normal day people don't make the best decisions, so now let's add people from multiple cultures, with different morals and ideas of how things should be making a decision on your business. To solve this problem, I would have a meeting letting all employees know what my key goals were and let them know the guidelines that needed to be followed, and if they had any questions that they should direct the problem to a supervisor or up.
Week 3 Discussion 2
Please respond to the following:
· Share a current event article with the class that relates to the concepts covered in this week’s reading. Write a brief summary, and explain why you felt the article was relevant.
Example of one of my classmates:
RE: Week 3 Discussion 2
The article I choose was written by Dr. C Carney Yang, it has points that we are discussing this week, some of which were the key issue of bring together a multi cultural team. Dr. Yang touched on 7 key components for overcoming the challenges of multi cultural teams.
1. Learn, understand, respect and leverage their cultural differences.
2. You can not over-communicate. Continuous communication is what needs to happen to ensure each member of the team completely understands the task at hand.
3. Build a team ONE.
4. Make culturally correct decision.
5. Foster cohesive relationship and build trust.
6. Resolve conflicts quickly and peacefully.
7. Play to win.
Two and four hit home with me because those were the two that had the most impact on what we are discussing this week. The challenges a multi cultural team has, and ways to achieve the best results, great performance and bottom line profits.

This document summarizes a study on cross-cultural collaborations in higher education. The study examined how social elements influence group work success and how teachers can help overcome tensions. Interviews were conducted with 20 students from diverse backgrounds. Results showed that high-performing students saw social connections as enjoyable but believed diversity led to broader perspectives. Mid-performing students felt social bonds aided productivity but cross-cultural work could feel awkward. Low-performing students said social connections were essential for collaboration but found cross-cultural work inherently awkward. All groups agreed teachers should facilitate introductions and provide feedback to help social connections form. A follow up randomized study is also proposed.
1. The document discusses using technology to enhance global education opportunities at Cascadia Community College through international video conferences and language exchanges.
2. Students participated in video conferences with universities in Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates to discuss differences in government systems and gain new cultural perspectives.
3. The college also implemented a language exchange program where Japanese and American students communicated weekly in English and Japanese to practice language skills and learn about each other's cultures.

Week 2 Discussion
Anti-bias education is an early childhood curriculum which is geared towards instilling values and principles which align with supporting, respecting as well as embracing social differences and aims to fight unfairness, bias, and segregation across the different social forms like race, gender among other variations (Leekeenann et al. 2016). The anti-bias form of education calls for high levels of critical thinking, and adequate problem-solving prowess among the tutors and the scholars to enhance social justice across the different demographic segmentation.
Anti-bias goal 2: the children express comfort and extreme joy with human diversity, the official language for social differences, and sincere, caring human connections. With this, through anti-bias education, children are thus able to acknowledge the humanity and extend the heart of affiliation and adopt zero tolerance to all forms of human segregation. The children can, therefore, interact with different social d.
The group presentation was about the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). The presentation successfully convinced people to donate by showing authoritative figures supporting the ASPCA and statistics about animals hurt or killed daily and those saved. It effectively used images of rescued animals' conditions and celebrities to establish ethos. Facts about animal euthanasia and hoarding used logos, while videos and pictures aimed to make people feel pity through pathos. The presentation demonstrated how the public can help the ASPCA foundation.

This lesson teaches character education through a math curriculum by focusing on the trait of perseverance. Students will watch video clips from Finding Nemo that demonstrate perseverance and discuss how the character shows this trait. They will then discuss how perseverance can be applied in math class and beyond. As an assessment, students will post responses on a collaborative digital bulletin board about how they can demonstrate perseverance in math. The teacher plans to continue developing character education by working with colleagues to identify important virtues and implement them across the curriculum.
This document discusses the importance of learning sign language and provides technology tools for teaching sign language. Some key benefits of learning sign language include strengthening IQ, making new friends, and opening career opportunities. The document then describes several technology tools that can be used to teach sign language, including YouTube videos, storytelling videos, webquests, and interactive posters. It provides an example of a proposed webquest that would have students learn and teach signs to each other. The document concludes by stressing the importance of teaching students multiple languages so they can communicate within diverse societies.
Jennifer Evans is the Assistant Director of ELA at St. Clair County RESA. She provided a document summarizing her work supporting school improvement and instructional quality. The document discussed establishing clear routines and procedures, analyzing student tasks, behaviors, and teacher behaviors during classroom observations.

Evans plans future professional development sessions to model vocabulary instruction, provide classroom support through walk-throughs, and discuss how administration can help teachers improve.
Learning in the 21st Century Practical Tips for AdultsCompass Publishing
This session presented by James Hall at Compass Teacher's Day in Brazil in July of 2018. The session looks at two amazing courses, Blueprint and Interact, which help adult learners to develop their language competencies within the context of the 21st Century. The session looks at the changing needs of language learners away from just traditional forms of input and output into the 4cs of 21c learning and the growing need for practical and useful contexts for a real and dynamic world.

The document outlines the structure and content of an Approaches to Learning (ATL) course. It discusses four main strands: thinking skills, intercultural understanding, communication skills, and personal skills. Within each strand are subtopics like ethical thinking, problem solving, language and culture, presentation skills, and emotional intelligence. The goal is to help students develop life skills that can be applied in various contexts through activities, discussions, and applying skills in real-world scenarios. The course emphasizes developing international-mindedness and intercultural awareness.
This document discusses two methods for learning a foreign language: Livemocha, an online language learning community, and face-to-face interaction. It proposes researching these methods by having students in a Spanish class interact online with Livemocha or in person with native speakers over one semester. The study aims to understand which method provides more motivation, cultural awareness, vocabulary gains, and is preferred by students by analyzing chat logs, surveys, and pre/post vocabulary tests.

This is a lecture I gave on Learning Styles and other Academic Theory for our Business School Students. It contains videos which probably won't work on this format but I've included the links. Most of the 'content' is in the notes section on each slide - I spoke it. Students were given a Twitter #tag to use during the lecture to reply to the questions posed and these where displayed on a twitter wall. There were also links to Excel files containing questionnaires that the students were encouraged to try after the session.

Learning Styles & Academic Theory (Learning Styles don't Exist)Jacqueline Bartram
This is a lecture I gave on Learning Styles and other Academic Theory for our Business School Students. It contains videos which probably won't work on this format but I've included the links. Most of the 'content' is in the notes section on each slide - I spoke it. Students were given a Twitter #tag to use during the lecture to reply to the questions posed and these where displayed on a twitter wall. There were also links to Excel files containing questionnaires that the students were encouraged to try after the session.

Editor's Notes
I want to show you visually what I mean about making your slides more visual. I’ve taken some slides from a presentation given to first year Business School students and done some makeovers to show you what I mean.
This is about as simple as you can make it – but it still does the job. A basic image making the audience want to listen to the narration which would give examples of verbal cues and go on to talk about language structuring perception.
If you feel you really need to use several images, think about how you display them – think about design. This grid down the left shows all the different aspects of the narration without making the slide cramped and busy. The narration would talk generally about a lot of language being unspoken and then individually about eye contact, body language, personal space and touching.
This is a slide from further on in the presentation. It is not obvious how the title relates to the content – and the content is crying out to be displayed as a chart. The values add up to 100 and they are all quite different from each other so a pie chart would be the obvious choice.
This would also work well as a diagram – because there are five different elements one of the only ways that each could all be given equal prominence would be to use a segmented circle.
There are lots of different types of preset diagrams within the SmartArt tool but the only segmented circles has arrows around the edge showing a cycle process which would be inappropriate here – so I just created it as a pie chart, giving each shape the same value. I’ve stuck with the same colour scheme throughout the presentation to give a sense of unity – this was originally purple, green, blue, red etc
This one is crying out to be a diagram
This could be simple diagram and the explanations of what each represents could just be verbal.Or you could include graphic examples.
This could be simple diagram and the explanations of what each represents could just be verbal.Or you could include graphic examples.
This is a quote which is by it’s nature verbal. This does not mean the slide has to be boring and just text though. This text is hard to read due to the close line spacing and italic text. It is far too long to actually fix in anyone’s mind. It would be better to pick a smaller part out for the slide. You can always continue with the rest of the quote verbally (after all – it is a quote!)
Adding the extra image puts the quote into context.
This is the companion slide to the negative quotation – the brighter colour helps the mood as well as the smiley image.
