Experiences with
timetabling
• Whoever shouts the loudest gets the better rooms
• First come, first served
• Community building is hot, but needs more rooms
• Community building can increase walking distances
• Tip: You should visit this primary school!
Result:
• Education staff and support staff complain about each other.
Or worse: don’t complain any more.
Ergo: workarounds
10-11-2015r.a.oudevrielink@utwente.nl

The problem with
workarounds is that they work
10-11-2015r.a.oudevrielink@utwente.nl

Problems
Errors, costs and dissatisfaction with timetabling:
10-11-2015r.a.oudevrielink@utwente.nl
• Capacity of rooms: low occupation and utilisation, but still
shortage at peaks
• Timetabling mistakes: too small rooms, too large rooms,
wrong rooms, etc.
• Rooms that are suitable but not optimal
• Workload for teachers
• having to walk all over campus
• racing to do more in less time
• Information gap adjusting education to the timetable, not v.v.

Consequences
10-11-2015r.a.oudevrielink@utwente.nl
• Higher costs of rooms
• extra buildings or extra opening hours
• Higher costs of staffing
• teachers busy with timetabling and changes
• (de+)centralised timetabling and problem solving
• Dissatisfaction
• NSE scores down, lower rankings
• employee satisfaction down
• Damage to image of institution

Underlying motives
About timetabling and use of space
• No measurement of process information
• No clear performance indicators
• No governance model defined
• Lots of complaining as a company culture.

The document discusses a workshop for maximizing the value of introductory courses for future K-12 teachers. It includes polls about the participants' backgrounds in education and familiarity with Next Generation Science Standards and teacher preparation requirements. The document notes that about half the participants teach classes for pre-service teachers and most interact regularly with STEM colleagues but not education colleagues, information to keep in mind during workshop discussions about strategies.

OpenEd 2016: The HOW of Adapting an Open Textbook

laesoph

Adapting or modifying educational resources is what gives open the competitive advantage over its commercial counterparts. Adapting an educational resource means that a faculty member can change the content to best suit the learning outcomes of their course; it means that students can take an active role in adapting and changing material for assignment and assessment purposes. However, adapting is rarely done across open educational projects. BCcampus's Open Textbook project is one of the few open projects to have successfully completed a series of adaptations on a number of open textbooks. This presentation will walk you through the steps of HOW to adapt an open textbook. Participants will be introduced to a step-by-step approach to adaptation, including technical format considerations and style guide supports. Participants will leave the session with an adaptation toolkit, produced by BCcampus, that is CC licensed and can be adapted for the needs of each institution or project.

My philosophy on technology in an educational setting pp 505

Craig Rogers

This document outlines a philosophy on using technology in education. It advocates that teachers should have a variety of effective technologies they are familiar with, not follow trends, and collaborate. Students should be open to learning, trust teachers, and offer suggestions. A balance of technology and traditional methods like reading, writing, and the basics is important. Teachers must be trained on any technology used, explain it to students, train students, and support them directly rather than sending them elsewhere for help. Effective technologies complement learning while ineffective technologies take focus away from the basics or are not properly supported.

Using Formative Assessment Data at NPS

Caitlin Scanlon

This document discusses how Rafael Hernandez School in Newark, NJ uses formative assessment data from the Edulastic platform to guide classroom instruction. It provides examples of how teachers use real-time data from daily "Do Nows" and other assessments to identify student misunderstandings, inform small group instruction, and ensure all students are prepared for technology-enhanced questions on standardized tests. The timely data allows for reflection on teaching methods and collaboration between teachers to best meet student needs.

In this presentation, we report results from a Swedish replication of a successful British trial involving foster carers in a paired reading tutoring intervention, aiming to improve foster children's literacy skills. The project involved 81 foster children age 8-12 and their carers, whom read together 20 minutes a day, 3 times a week for a period of 16 weeks. The evaluation was carried out as a pre-post design without a comparison group using national age-standardised literacy tests. In order to provide further insight into how the intervention works, qualitative interviews were conducted with fifteen foster carers with different experiences in program compliance. The results revealed significant gains in the children's vocabulary and reading age. In average their reading age had improved with 11 months. Reading reports indicated that 90% of the participants had implemented the programme in an acceptable way. The interviews confirmed that the intervention can provide a model for competent reading and result in improved child-carer relations. Rigidly following the method could however lead to conflicts. Completion of the intervention seemed to be conditioned on the children's joy in reading, which in turn may require adjustments in the day-to- day delivery of the intervention. Also carers had to see benefits with the paired reading in order to be able to motivate the child. The results suggest that it is possible to engage foster parents in the improvement of foster children's literacy skills, and that the British paired reading method is transportable to other national contexts.

This document provides advice on selecting HSC subjects and understanding the ATAR. It discusses four key considerations: workload, choosing subjects you enjoy and excel in, university prerequisite requirements, and how subject scaling affects ATAR calculations. The document recommends aiming for 11-12 subjects, with at most 2 major works, and choosing the highest-level maths and English subjects that you can handle. Students should select subjects they love and are interested in to stay motivated while also considering assumed knowledge for their intended university programs. English Advanced is generally better than Standard due to scaling. With an understanding of these factors, students can make informed choices about their HSC subjects.

HandheldLearning

The document discusses a study exploring how mobile devices called "Explorers" can support independent and active learning in children. Several schools participated in the study, including traditional, learner-centered, international, and special education schools. Preliminary results found enthusiastic student engagement with the Explorers and increased cooperation and knowledge sharing. However, teachers need more training to fully integrate the devices into daily lessons. Next steps include further teacher training and developing age-appropriate educational software.

Lara Panzini: Star Rating for Language Teachers

eaquals

This document summarizes research on star rating systems for language teachers. It describes both primary and secondary research conducted, including online surveys of teachers and students, and interviews with academic managers. Key findings include that rating is seen as subjective, students are experienced raters, and teachers fear unfair feedback. Both teachers and students felt progress was the most important factor in evaluating a course. The conclusion is that an integrated system including ratings, reviews, and other quality indicators would be most useful for students choosing a school. Recommendations are made for how the research institution could implement a rating system.

IL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)

The Didactic Diamond is an information literacy model developed by Dr. T.R. Zijlstra to explain the academic process in higher education. The diamond shape visualizes the journey a student takes from receiving an assignment question to submitting their final answer. It involves increasing the scope of knowledge through research activities like identifying relevant sources, gathering information, and evaluating sources to develop a strong argument. The model breaks down the process into preparation, research, and writing stages aligned with the seven pillars of information literacy. Feedback from students found the diamond helps structure assignments by planning tasks and finding resources to develop their understanding over time.
