Google Shopping delivers great results, but many AdWords advertisers haven't found ways to differentiate themselves from the competition. So how to escape from mediocrity?
We setup tests, analysed data from Shopping Campaigns across the globe and will provide our results and actionable insights within these slide:
1. How does bidding impact the click volume, search query impressions, traffic quality and ROI?
2. How do Google Shopping campaign priorities influence your performance?
3. Should you really spend time optimising product descriptions in your feed?
4. How important is the correct categorisation of your products (Google Product Category) in the feed?
5. How does Shopping react when you rewrite your product titles?

Social Media is a very old phenomenon, going back at least as far as Martin Luther. All we've added is electronic distribution platforms.
Both Oscar Wilde and the more marketing-savvy of the Michelin Brothers understood the real power - users and content.

Human Rights Colonialism and Globalization. Developing a Transformational Exp...Chrysalis Campaign, Inc.
Based on the frameworks of John Dewey’s Experiential Learning, Malcolm Knowles and Lindeman and Distributive Intelligence this session will have a free downloadable course and discussion on how to motivate students with personally relevant material on a historical content. Learning does not happen on a page, it happens in the heart.
The course was originally developed for an Apple high School customer in order to weave historical content with the student’s experience with life. The course explores colonialism transformation in modern globalization through the use of media and collaborative class experience. It is a digital storytelling course.
The curriculum leverages the 31 UN human rights as a digital storytelling program. Youthforhumanrights.org. Perhaps now with the state of global human rights infractions making students feel helpless it is as timely as ever. The session will cover some information on the UN SDG talk.
Richard developed under a UNESCO grant a digital storytelling portal “I am Africa. This is my story..” This is curriculum and methods are excellent material for Flat Classroom projects. The Youth for Human Rights program of 31 emotional promo video can be used by teams of students in PBL and other collaborative media formats.

Massive Sustainable Learning SDGs for 2016 Global Education Conference richar...Chrysalis Campaign, Inc.
Massive, Self-Sustainable Collaborative Learning. The unabridged version of UN HQ session on Education and Sustainable Development Goals SDGs presented 2/2016.
Full Session Description (as long as you would like):
This is an expanded version of the SDG and Education session presented at Sustainable Development Goals SDGs in the UN HQ. The unabridged version includes many of the issues, and heated complaints, brought in discussions after the session. Many of the issues focused around the sanitization of culture out of curriculum when culture is a driving force to learn and build communities.
The session provides a series of cases on how massive global collaborative learning events impact the work both in global reach (breadth) and (depth) in transformation perception and technology.
The session also covers massive cultural learning transformations in relation to poverty and self-perception. The US is used as a case of a poor colonial nation and becuase of learning events evoluted into a massive inventive force. In addition how massive learning events such as the Novel and Microsoft certification programs people entrenched markets, such as IBM’s computer monopoly.
These global learning events, such as Microsoft Cloud cell phone banking, create grounds for massive shifts in both how and what we learn.
This is relevant for a global educators to grasp because key student motivators are latent within the classroom on massive shifts.
UN SDGs is also a great framework for a student on becoming global social citizens.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

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

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.
