Presentation on digital citizenship and social media for K-12 teachers; complete resources available at http://pwoessner.wikispaces.com/Digital+Citizenship
Depending on the type of library in which you work, you may assume that someone is "digitally literate." Yet what do we mean by those words and how do we know if the person meets our definition? What can we do in our libraries to increase the information and digital literacy of our users/patrons/members/owners? How does that impact the tools that we acquire and the services that we provide? Who should we be partnering with in these efforts? These and other questions will be address in this session, which will also include time for brainstorming.
Jill Hurst-Wahl is an associate professor of practice in Syracuse University’s School of Information Studies and the director of its library and information science program. She is a member of SLA’s Board of Directors, NYS Regents Advisory Council on Libraries, and the USNY Technology Policy and Practices Council. A former corporate librarian, Jill has always been an advocate for libraries being centers of learning in their communities (no matter what community they serve).
This short slide show talks about our "born digital" students, why they are different and the challenges they face in the online, virtual world. Who will help them navigate this new frontier?

India's Post Millennial Indian Generation: Gen-ZSneha Kapoor
Youth as a life stage is a much celebrated one – and every generation of youth brings with it energy, a desire for change, naivete and unabashed self-belief…
But at different times in history, youth demonstrate different traits – whether it is the ‘peace-loving’ youth of the 70s or the recent millennials who love challenging the status-quo.
Millennials (born in the mid 80s and 90s) have dominated the marketing and pop culture discourse in the last years, being a truly unique generation born in an age of rapid digital transformation, global connectivity and social change. However, as they age (millennials are now between 25-35 years), its important to readjust our lens on youth and turn to the generation that follows… Introducing the ‘Post-Millennial generation’, or Gen Z, as they have now begun to be defined.
Born after 2001, by the end of 2019, they will outnumber the millennials and become the single biggest youth cohort in India
Based on qualitative and quantitative research across metros in India*, this book attempts to breakdown the unique characteristics of this generation, their drivers and ways to appeal to them.
Slides from a session debunking articles written about Millennials and how educational institutions should really determine how and where to communicate to their audiences on social media. Presented at the 2015 CASE Social Media and Community Conference in Miami.

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.

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.

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.

What is a
Young
Adult?
2. 2
That Depends!
• "Young adult" is a euphemism for an
adolescent. The usage was introduced
in the late 20th century / early 21st
century due to a growing reluctance
on the part of some people to refer
to this age group as children, or even
by older terms for the intermediate
period between adulthood and such as
adolescent, youth or teenager.
• Older Wikipedia entry
“Young Adult”
Now changed—see slide 2!

Young adult may refer to:
• Young adult (psychology)
• Young-adult fiction, works
targeted at ages 14 to 21
• Young Adult (film), a 2011
film
• Youth

Association (YALSA) defines them
as individuals between the ages of

Isn’t that adolescence?
• Adolescence is one of the most
fascinating and complex
transitions in the life span: a
time of accelerated growth and
change second only to infancy; a
time of expanding horizons, self-discovery,
and emerging
independence; a time of
metamorphosis from childhood to
adulthood. . . . The events of
this crucially formative phase can
shape an individual’s life course
and thus the future of the whole
society.

for A New Century: Introduction
6. 6
Who are our adolescents?
• Generation Y
– a cohort of individuals characterized as
Generation X on steroids.
– Generation Y includes those born
between the second half of the 1970s
and the first half of the 1990s,
although some experts believe these
dates to be debatable. Several other
terms for this group have been tossed
around, including Echo Boomers,
Millenium Generation, iGeneration,
Einstein Generation and Google
Generation.
• Understanding Generation Y by Sophia Yan
7. 7
Or maybe they’re Generation Z?
• The earliest children of Generation Z are
those born in and after 1990 and are often
the children of generation X. They are unique
as they have grown up with the internet. This
generation is very networked with social
networks and many means of communication
and means of entertainment at their finger
tips such as Cell Phones, iPod, Facebook,
YouTube and IM. Digital networking and
sharing is common and many have not known a
time without the internet and are often
referred to as digital natives.

AKA “Millennials”
• Born between 1982 and 2000, the
millennials are described as the hard-driving,
heavily scheduled children of
so-called “helicopter” parents, who have
a tendency to hover. The millennials
have been characterized as . . . “More
Confident, Assertive, Entitled — and
More Miserable Than Ever Before” (in
the subtitle of the recent book
Generation Me by San Diego State
University associate professor of
psychology Jean M. Twenge).
– The Millennials: Always On
by Anne Taubeneck
9. 9
What about them?
• They’re a group of fast-paced, multi-taskers
walking around with camera phones and iPod
headphones in their ears. The minute they
walk in the door, they open their laptops and
hop on MySpace while watching a reality TV
show, instant messaging friends and doing
homework all at the same time.

Some statistics
• By only their seventh birthday, most
children in the United States will have
talked on a cell phone, played a computer
game and mastered a TV-on-demand device
like TiVo, much to the amazement of
technically challenged parents. By 13,
researchers say, the same children will have
gone through several software editions of
instant messaging, frequented online chat
rooms and downloaded their first illegal song
from BitTorrent.

But—there are problems
• With all the innovative gadgets and
information at the click of a button, this
generation is built on instant gratification. It’s
hard for them to think long-term and anything
that doesn’t produce immediate results bores
them.
• “I think we really value convenience and crave
instant results,” says Mallory Brown, a 16-
year-old San Rafael High School student
