This document outlines a presentation about using technology to support differentiation and assessment in the classroom. The presentation discusses several apps and websites like Genius Scan, Zip Grade, Vocaroo, Kidblog, Edmodo, and Aurasma that can help teachers save time on tasks like grading assignments while also supporting differentiation. The document provides an agenda for the presentation that will demonstrate how these tools can be used to assess students, give feedback, and modify activities to meet different learners' needs.

Learning Centers 2.0:
Enhancing Student Learning With Technology
Lisa D’Adamo-Weinstein & Craig Lamb
SUNY Empire State College
Wikis, iPods, blogs, texting…our students are using technology in
ways that make our heads spin. The purpose of this institute is to
get a handle on these technological innovations to help our students
learn better as they engage with our learning centers.
Focusing on current theories and best practices in enhancing
student learning through technology, attendees will learn about
new advances, engage in activities, and plan how to implement
technology to enhance learning assistance on their campuses.
This institute is appropriate for learning assistance, tutorial
services, and developmental education faculty and staff who develop
curriculum, workshops, and other resources for students.
Craig Lamb is the Director of Academic Support at Empire State College's, Center for Distance Learning. While Craig
is working primarily with students in need of additional academic support services and academic skill development,
and with faculty interested in delivering their courses content and material in more effective ways to increase student
learning, he is becoming more and more interested in the creative uses of new technology to enhance student learning
both within and outside the online class environment.
Lisa D'Adamo-Weinstein is currently the Director of Academic Support at Empire State College's Northeast Center.
Lisa has also taught and coordinated academic assistance and learning support programs at Indiana University's Student
Academic Center, including an academic retention course for at-risk students. She was the Coordinator of Student-Athlete
Academic Support at American University in Washington, D.C. Most recently, she directed the Academic
Excellence Program at the United States Military Academy, West Point for seven years until moving in August 2006 to
the NY State Capital Region. Lisa has published journal articles for The Learning Assistance Review (published by
the National College Learning Center Association—NCLCA) and is co-author of the book Piecing It Together: A Guide to Student Success.
Online learning is for everyone especially the struggling student as it provides individualized learning. The struggling learner makes up 80% of juvenile delinquents and high school dropouts.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
