Slides to support a workshop on visual thinking across the curriculum at the IntegratEd Conference. Portland, Oregon, February 2013.
Over 80% of our brains are used interpreting visuals. It seems a waste not to take advantage this powerful channel into the minds of our students. What sorts of ways can a single image be used to tell stories and explore complex ideas in Math, Science, Language Arts or Languages classrooms? What could we do with a series of pictures? How can we do this beyond the time and space of the classroom walls and have our students generate a bank of powerful visuals to inspire future students to create even more powerful learning imagery?
In this hands on session participants will mash up their ideas with powerful images, painlessly share them with the group and spend the lion’s share of our time together thinking deeply and discussing our shared vision for what real learning looks like in our classrooms. We’ll touch on ideas of ethical and responsible use of technology, creative commons and some thoughts about visual design.
Bring your camera enabled mobile device. We’re gonna use it. And show you how to take better pictures in the process.

Tales of Learning and The Gifts of Footprints v4.1Darren Kuropatwa
Why does digital learning matter? In a society that is increasingly technophilic what are the new literacies we need to be aware of for our own learning and that of our students? How does this impact the way we think about and teach our children to become empowered and empathetic responsible citizens? Answers to these questions and more are shared through a series of powerful tales of learning.
A series of stories woven together to start a conversation with middle and high school students about living our lives on and offline (on The Fourth Screen) more thoughtfully.
This talk focuses primarily on the ideas of Empathy, Empowerment & Persistent Kindness and shares resources teachers can use to lead these sorts of conversations with their own students.

Slides to support a workshop for the Brandon University VOICE Project in The Pas, Manitoba. 27 November 2013.
We learn by doing; in this workshop we'll create together and then discuss effective ways to make our classrooms active learning environments. This workshop will also outfit teachers with the tools, skills, and pedagogical perspectives necessary to be successful in a 1-to-1, iPad or BYOD class. We'll share valuable educational apps for iPads across various content areas. We will design an integrated suite of tools that help students learn and show what they know to the world. Learn how to design effective learning experiences by "mashing up" different apps to create your own app-tivities. You'll walk away from this session with a strong understanding of the fundamentals of using technology in the classroom.

Behind Their Eyes - making thinking visible is not enough
Walk into any classroom and watch the breakneck pace at which teachers are working hard to help students learn. Mind you, if we don’t uncover what students are thinking while learning, they may be running down the wrong path. OK, so we need ways to make student thinking visible. Seeing their thinking is important, but we also need to create the time and space for teachers to absorb, reflect, and act on what their students thinking reveals. This workshop shares strategies both for making student thinking visible and for creating time and space for teachers to meaningfully act on what they learn about what’s going on behind their eyes.
“If you really want to understand something, try changing it.” - Kurt Lewin
As the Director of Learning for a school division made up of 18 schools, my job is to help lead the largest change initiative ever undertaken in our school community. One of the most important, difficult, messy things any school leader does is lead change. While we can learn from the change leadership of others, copying their work most often leads to failure. Success is more likely to come from adapting others work to our own context. In this workshop I share the journey we’ve undertaken collectively in our schools; how we developed a shared vision, cultivated collaborative cultures, maintained a focus on deep learning, and wrestle with the nuances of accountability. Informed by the latest research on change management in education, we also model strategies for fostering deep learning conversations in your schools. We’ll engage in some deeper learning conversations together and take back a wealth of ideas you can adapt to your own context. Developing collaborative cultures is careful and precise work that has profound impact when carried out well. So how do you do that? Come, let’s learn together. Good people are important, but good cultures are moreso.

In a world where knowledge is more a verb than a noun how do we foster deep learning in our students? Good questions cause thinking. Unfortunately, many of the questions regularly asked in classrooms focus on knowledge as a noun. This presentation will explore inquiry as a pedagogical stance and the effective use of thinking and learning tools in the classroom. We will work together to model teaching practices that lead to students co-constructing a networked (real world) rather than hierarchical (artificial) understanding of their world regardless of grade level or discipline.
Participants will leave this workshop with a toolkit of research based questioning and thinking strategies they can begin using with their students tomorrow.
This participatory session will engage attendees in some meaningful dialogue around several aspects of digital citizenship. We'll explore some hot-button topics and consider their impact on the work we do as educators. This session will provide clarification around a number of key digital citizenship issues and will also highlight a valuable model for engaging your students in classroom conversations. There’s a fair bit of fear mongering disguised as digital citizenship online. Our kids need more models of empathy and empowerment – so do we. We’ll share some of those models too.
Presented at the Riding the Wave Conference in Gimli, Manitoba. May 2017.
In two words, you remember the whole story: glass slipper, sour grapes, cold porridge. You remember more than facts, you recall relationships & deeper connections between characters. Some of the powerful ways we leverage digital for deeper learning includes challenging sources of information (fake news), exploring bias (developing empathy through multiple perspectives), and creating powerful feedback loops that foster deeper learning.
Powerful narratives, in a word or two, bring to mind a wealth of ideas & relationships; more than just facts. How can we find stories that make our teaching sticky and help kids find, and more importantly tell, stories that make learning stick? This workshop will equip teachers with the skills & knowledge to foster deeper learning across the curriculum by intentionally leveraging digital tools to foster deeper learning.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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
